Long Polling was reset a few times by me recently because of updates, don't worry - this will not affect your mining.
Doesn't it potentially increase the number of stale shares; especially if he is seeing this at a rate of 10% of all queries?
No, it was for a very short time, so the number of stales would be negligible.

Suddently started getting lots of "Long poll exceptions...", "long poll: deepbit is temporarily unavailable" and new thing now: "long poll: backend error"

Seems like ~90% of the latest ~10 blocks, makes long poll error.

Using latest m0mchil's miner.

Tycho, could it be posible to reset workers' shares counters individualy?? I'm testing differents cards at different speed and there is some workers I don't want to reset its stats. I hope it will be possible.
There is already individual reset button on each worker's page.

19:22:02, 20:12:37, and 20:18:36 (GMT -7) blocks were found by me.  That's right.
Thanks :)

Hi. Is there a limit on 20 workers? I Can not create more!? I read in this thread that I can use up to 10 clients on one worker? Is that fact up 2 date?
If you are using long polling, then the limit is 20 miners per one worker account and 20 worker accounts per one user.
But this limit is only to detect LP malfunction so if you need more, PM me with desired number and reason - it's easy to add.

Well I'm just one unlucky person.  I was slaving away coding my own pool this evening, after moving my miners to your pool about 14 hours ago Tycho.  And what do I see before going to sleep?

19:22:02, 20:12:37, and 20:18:36 (GMT -7) blocks were found by me.  That's right.  There were 4 blocks discovered by Deepbit.net between 19:22 and 20:22, and 3 of them were from my miners.  I bet if I finish making my own pool I'll never find one again!

IDK if your willing to answer this Tycho... but with fees and your own mining, what do you make in a day BTC wise?

I would love to see a Daily btc chart as im one of those people that uses my payouts to watch progress Tongue
I'm working on this, especially for PPS users Smiley
Also I would like to hear: should I count daily earnings between midnights on UTC or midnights on user's timezone ?
Second option may be more useful, but it will be more difficult to compare between users and may lead to wrong values if user changes his timezone.

By the way the stats page is updated, now it shows average time to find a block (at the bottom) and loads 6 times faster.

As for my own income, I can't give precise answer at this moment because i'm overinvesting in my little "mining farm". I'll post some pics and results later when it will be done.

Since its meant as a statistic UTC time is better IMHO.  BitcoinCharts calculates their daily periods of volume and price change using that time period.

There is no such threat. When some pool operator decides to do something bad or cooperate with governments, all the miners will instantly switch to others or go solo, and there will be no big pool anymore.
Also, the same reason about not being "single point of failure". It takes less than a minute to switch pools when something happens.
Yet, the fact remains that if a large pool operator attacked the system (regardless if he wanted to or not), he could. If, for example, your pool grew large enough to control 51% of the network, you could do damage to the network before the network could react.
I'm not planning to reach 50%, just in case.
But I know some good things that can be done for network if big pools unite.
NOTE: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.110565

Indeed, it takes less than a minute to switch pools, but how many of your users monitor the network every minute of every day?
I see how fast they react when there is a problem with some of the pools.

Also i'll send you a PM about how to try to mine on my USA server.
You have a US server?  Handy knowledge for many perhaps.  ;D
Yes, I do :)
It's set to automatically take US miners in case of transatlantic network failure.

Please, do not invite people to other pools in MY thread, that's impolite. I'm not posting my ads in other pools threads.

Apologies. in my defence I was responding to clear up an erroneous comment .... but it is retracted now anyway.

it is better for bitcoin network stability to not have too big of a central (single) point of failure.
Deepbit.net is just getting scary BIG!!! Almost a super-computer class hasher on its own now! kinda cool too though.
I've been trying to explain this for a while now. It seems no one cares. They are all concerned with being in the biggest pool, forgetting what makes Bitcoin secure to begin with. I wonder if the large pool operators have considered this. The bigger their pool, the more money they make. But if the system is easily exploitable, no one will be making any money at all.

If I was a government goon, I would certainly go after the big pool operators first. Either bribe or threaten them to do what I want. Of course, we don't need to worry about governments, right? Bitcoin doesn't threaten them in the slightest.
