kano this pool tends to do that though doesent it ?
Random, but becoming more common as the number of miners increases so the size of the payout increases.

guys off topic question. Is it possible that pool operator, takes part of the hash and point to nicehash to again mine on the same pool? If its possible that will show double or that part hash and the pool owner takes the split?
yes its very possible.. there was a pool called bitcoinaffiliatnetwork.. he was accused of selling hash to rent..
the pool became very shady and nobody got paid for weeks.. i think it went offline with him owing 100s of bitcoin to people.

That way I already know they've passed all inspections, and it's just dependent on me creating a new step that can add the earlier data correctly - so dust payouts are combined, and dust only not sent if the combination is below 10k satoshi.
Yeah I really don't want a pool bank for everyone, and I think this change would fit in well, and reduce the number of transactions and the payout division caused by our average expected more than one block a day.
Any comments?
I think the once per day payout it a good balance between payment frequency and having to pay tx fees for sending out the payments. I like your outline, it sounds like it only adds one more step to what you are currently doing, but that one step could end up saving you coin in the long run on the tx fees that you save. So a bit more work but you are compensated for it.Yeah I really don't want a pool bank for everyone, and I think this change would fit in well, and reduce the number of transactions and the payout division caused by our average expected more than one block a day.

Also, if this change would handle sweeping up dust payments and sending those out it would be cool for all the people who have asked about how to get their dust, and it would keep the pool from having to store that coin.

now 10 blocks have skipped the .0013 fee transaction due to it having 52 small parts of coin and 3 big parts.
thus 55 parts of coin which takes up space so it gets skipped.
even though the fee is .0013 I got skipped here for this block.
These funds were sent to me and there are 3 big parts in the send about 7.5 and 52 small parts around 0.05
This is tough as small payments take up space and the large fee of .0013 is not big enough.
55 pennies is large fee to send $4,400 ?
Last week I spent $46.00 to wire $1,700 at the bank.
Sticking to .0001 per kb should still assure relatively fast acceptance.
First off I understand the fee mechanism, but many don't..
Many people think 0.0001 or 0.0002 just works.
From your post I am inclined to think you realize BTC size means nothing kb size means everything.
So a 1 btc send consisting of 75 x 0.02 is expensive to send. 0.0013 is too small
While a 25.2 btc send consisting of a confirmed virgin block is cheap to send. 0.0004 will do the trick almost everytime
The problem is a lot of people don't understand this.
Most people do not understand that btc amount means nothing.
Here is one of my kano.is payment addresses:
it has .20453225 in it
https://blockchain.info/address/16yLHLoeyuCLPMXkVpC3gyrRYvwRGwjKJr
that is from 1 avalon6 and is the last 20 rewards from kano.is pool
to empty this and send to someone will cost 0.0004 to 0.0006 due to the fact it is 20 payments or so.
.204 is under 90 bucks and this is why I would like 1 payment a day since it would be 6 payments not 20 plus and sending the coins out would be
0.0002 or 0.0003 tops.
I think the rec I have seen was to check how many bits are in your transaction, then multiply by 20 sat.
So, for 700bits, 700X20=14000 sat or 0.00014 btc
So far it worked for me. If need comes, i will bump it to 30sat/bit, but I haven't done any transactions in a week or two.
At this risk of continuing this off topic discussion, doesn't your wallet software automatically compute a reasonable fee for size of the transaction? I remember the first time I bought something with mined coins and was shocked by the fee. Then I realized how huge the transaction was due to tons of tiny inputs, after which it made sense.
I've only used Bitcoin-Qt and a Trezor for receiving mined income. Both of them seem to do a decent job of computing reasonable fees when spending. Never seen a stuck transaction. Maybe other wallets don't automatically do as good a job, or maybe people think they know what they're doing and they override the wallet and low ball the fee?
Note that in the Trezor's case I periodically transfer from my mining account to my main one so that I can consolidate my bazillion tiny inputs. One drawback of the Trezor is that its signing is slow, so big transactions can take a long time to sign (many minutes sometimes). By consolidating I can pick when I want to spend that time.

My miners have been frequently dropping off of the pool. It seems to be happening more and more since the pool went over 20PH.... along with the blocks being very slow .... I'm kinda wondering if the mining servers cannot handle the load of over 20PH
Playing with pool management with a private test pool to learn how things work, I get the same effects when I overload the hardware.
just my thoughts, we will have to wait for the official cause.
Well, considering the pool has only dropped to 20PH today, but been running 25PH avg, and often up to 30PH for quite a while now ...Playing with pool management with a private test pool to learn how things work, I get the same effects when I overload the hardware.

... how did you determine "blocks being very slow" ?
well very slow is 90 to 99% not your usual 106%

So I got caught on sends due to this more then once. So I know to send high fees when the coin in my wallet is 35 or 50 x .01 from mining here.
A lot of of people sending to me don't know this issue so they send decent coin and think it is enough. Then everything bogs down for hours or worse sends just fail.

This actually answers some questions that I've had that I never asked. Thanks!

... and a ckpool (and ckdb) restart about to happen in the next minute.
The ckpool restart is the fixes for the last restart that are rather urgent.
Sorry for the short warning, but it's early morning here now and having done the payouts, I need to get this update in there now also.
Restart all done.The ckpool restart is the fixes for the last restart that are rather urgent.

Seems it will need more work still, but all is running ok.
Both payouts confirmed just before the restarts.
