Heh, the jump to 6PH was a failover from someone else Smiley

Well on the subject I posted above ...

There'll be another ckpool restart.
The irony of the failover from someone else is that they were also doing a ckpool restart for the same updates first Smiley All you need to do is check the current git of ckpool to see what changes we're restarting for at any time.

I will say, I do expect that everyone on the planet mining would have a backup to some other pool(s)
Pools telling you to set all your backups to the same pool really have no idea what the point of having a backup is ... ... ...
Of course I'll suggest solo.ckpool.org - but that of course is up to you Smiley

We've found a delay in the work processing that happens rarely, but could happen on a block change
(which could be catastrophic if we got an orphan)
We certainly don't want to ruin out ongoing excellent orphan record with an issue we know about.

So another restart to deal with that issue in about 15 minutes (the sooner the better for this one)
I'll post again here in 15min just before doing it.

I setup other redundant kano.is sites if I have unlimited site slots, e.g. SPx series, but I have seen people's screenshots showing all of the same pool, or no backup listed at all.

I have to think they change it after a while though.

I am going to go eat some chicken. It's about time for a double pop Smiley

I hope none of the newer people to KANO.IS are discouraged in the slightest. The one thing that has proven itself over and over is when you look at the all time luck. Or, if you choose, just look at the last 30 days of luck. I mine and don't count the time, I count the blocks and the coin in my wallet over a long period of time. Even a month is not a fantastic gauge in mining. As soon as you leave is when the blocks start popping.

Everyone hasn't had enough chicken yet tonight. Pickup a bucket and watch them start dropping.

the 2 S5+ have been connected close to 6 days the sp yukon 25 minutes,  Smiley
Variance is a big part of, and always present in, bitcoin mining Smiley

Well the best way to see what you are being rewarded over a short time frame is:
Look at the cgminer API summary two numbers:
E: "Elapsed" and D: "Difficulty Accepted"

Paid GH/s = 2^32 * D / E

Now in case you didn't want to do that ... Smiley
Look at the Workers->Shifts page.
That's how it calculates the "Avg Hs" which will be over the time frame given "Length"

i.e. 2^32 * "Your Diff" / "Length" seconds

For my 2 A6s and sjc's S3 I see over the last 4 completed shifts:
Code:
5pcu3 paru      Dec-14 23:49:21   45m 47s   7.71THs
5pcoq origami   Dec-14 23:02:38   46m 43s   7.03THs (pool restart)
5pcha nodoka    Dec-14 22:54:42   7m 55s    7.30THs
5pcgb mutsumi   Dec-14 22:15:04   39m 38s   7.61THs
About a 10% difference from min to max

If you had failover during the pool restart you'd see that under "origami" since that was the shift that was created when ckpool restarted

Even a shift will have variance since it's only ~40min or in one case above, ~8min

Of course there's also the question of how much time your miners spent else where due to the failover or for any other reason.
You'd have to look at your miner's stats to see that.

Hashrate on worker page is 2/3 of actual.
Hash rate takes 3x the decay value to get close to the expected value.
Or ... 5min stat takes about 15minutes.
1hr stat takes about 3hours.

Of course there's also the usual fact that even after 3hours most (ant) miners share variance is too high to assume it will be correct Smiley

If you think it's wrong you need to include saying how long it's been connected.

slowly coming back.

ck/kano u "bumped" into something ? or u gave it a "knock" asking where's the block ?
Here's a fun statistic for anyone asking where the next block is Smiley

At any particular point in time, no matter how long you have been mining, the next block is expected to be 100% Diff from now.

Just remember, for all the new miners coming in Smiley

The 5Nd means it takes that long to pay your shares.
The ramp isn't missing payouts, it's delaying them to reduce variance.

Your shares are rewarded in all blocks found in the 5Nd (currently about 4.5 days) after they are submitted.
Thus they get rewarded ~1/5 of their value per block found, with an expected average of ~5 rewards (if luck is 100%) in 5 blocks

That's simply how it reduces variance, each share's reward is averaged out over the (currently) 4.5 days after it.

+1. You might want to put that on your home page. It's a very clear & concise  explanation.

I managed to find a proxy I can use.  Brought 17Th to the pool. Smiley

Edit: Running a proxy does result in slightly higher stales (0.5%)
Yes the added latency will increase stales (at block change time)
Also the new "Show Details for Invalids:" at the top of the workers page will show you exactly why you are getting invalids.

Edit: those stats reset each time we find a block.

Very nice work!
I like to pilfer through the details, and this shows quite a comparison between my different miners.

Thanks Kano!
