Another lucky mining day at Eligius - 34 blocks found last 24 hours
(Average pool blocks per day at 5,372.64 Th/s at this difficulty: 25.435)

Helps when you have two 8 second rounds back to back.

Quick question: What are folks second favorite pools to mine? I usually hit BTC Guild or BitMinter. Are there other pools that folks who have been mining a lot longer than I have prefer?

Eclipse, bitminter, and p2pool. Honestly ghash seems to run a quality service, Were it not for their excessive share of the network I would recommend them. Even with that I can't say its bad to put a small amount of hash rate onto it. Will reduce your variance a lot. For example, a mix between ghash+p2pool is probably a net gain for decentralization with low variance.

I have had good results with slush but the fees are now to high for me too recommend, and the hash rate too low to offer any offsetting benefit in terms of variance.

Ah! I missed the 'might be down for a bit'. Thanks.

bitparking is a quality smaller pool with merge mining. And there's always p2pool.

Take your pick

They um... said they would be doing work. And that things might be down. No biggie, mine somewhere else for a bit.

I fix broken miners. And make holes in teeth :-)

ACK! I saw the web page was down earlier, but now I see that my miner no longer sees Eligus pool as alive. Any status on what's going on and when it will be back on-line and reachable? Showing pool as Dead and Stratum active: False.

Thanks

You are still not defining what you perceive as a problem. I have users mining with 50TH off one instance of cgminer

Try testing with a generation transaction of 100+ kB size.
Edit: Also, I would expect it to not affect high-end hosts. Probably just embedded and crappy miner-only hosts.

The host WAS mining on this pool with the 50TH without a problem

As for "crappy" miner only hosts, cointerra devices use "crappy" beaglebone boards and mine on this pool with 1.6TH per instance at 3% CPU usage.

So how big is the current generation transaction?

As I said, we had to workaround this problem.
So the Eligius coinbases today will never get big enough to trigger it.

Well as long as shares getting accepted, should be okay. Eligius has never let me down when it comes to the real substance: payouts for shares submitted... maybe the web server daemon went down, not a big deal. You don't really need to stare at a stats page all day; it doesn't speed up the amount of BTC you are mining :p ... more likely, the more you look at stats, the more you feel you should be tweaking something or hopping off to another pool, when the reality is if just let it be, it all averages out at the end.
