I've updated the pool hash rate to 2700 since the top miner has sent their hashes somewhere else and I've no idea if they will return.
They used to drop and come back, but seems they've gone elsewhere now.



Lets just CRACK this block!!   I have added an extra 100T to help.

Damn, I got a bad rental on MRR. Waiting for a refund.   

Got a refund, now a extra 150t pointed here.  I don't understand why MMR won't check renter rigs?
It's about 1 out of 10 rentals are a scam.

Has anyone updated their S4's with the new firmware from Bitmain Tech initramfs.bin.SD-20150129.tar.gz? Having problems with the new firmware update. When I change the frequency settings from stock, the miner will revert back to an old pool that I used to mine at. When I change the pool settings back to CKPool, it will revert the frequency settings back to stock settings. I have uploaded the backup copy of the miner before applying the new firmware, but without Joy, as in it's still doing the same thing. 

Sounds like cache issues.
I was experiencing similar things with an S3 yesterday, opened a different browser I had not used with a miner, bc I never use IE for anything, but it did refresh properly.

Your original question about the S4 firmware. I haven't gotten to it. My spare SD died, so I have to pickup another this weekend and not updating without one heh. I wonder... may have an extra in the digicam Smiley

If I do, I will update you.

Why bother with an extra SD card? You can always re-write the original image if the upgrade goes bad.

On my end, I upgraded my 5 S4s and they work perfectly on CK's solo pool. I'd expect the same behavior here. No idea why your S4 is acting up with the overclock, mine have no issues. Perhaps a factory reset is in order?

How often the pool pays? I'm gonna start one SP30 tomorrow.
Thanks.

After 101 confirmations on a block; providing kano isn't sleeping [which everyone has a right to].  Payouts are done manually as soon as possibly after 101 confirmations.


i was just about to say that Smiley

on another note, i've just put another 100%/2x hashrate up, ima going to get 30c a block now Cheesy

so i went up from the 107th to the 101st! yay me

When I added my first SP20 here it takes a while to build up to the hashrate I usually see on other pools much faster.
I'm not complaining I want to understand.
Is it because I do not set a difficulty? Starting at 1k should be perfect for an SP20 and be right there at 1.3 1.6 however you have it setup.
I restored an S3, new used fans, re-pasted the chips, put it on the pool and local hashrate was straight to 450ish right away.
I try to pay attention and I know I've read the pool shows what matters. Does it truly take that long at any pool, do I have a poor connection, or something set wrong?
The 1 minute you see there means "rolling exponential average with 1 minute time constant" which means it gives you a more accurate estimate than grabbing just the last minute's shares and estimating a hashrate from them, but that also means if you start at zero it takes ~5 time constants to plateau meaning 5 minutes. The hashrate used as the accurate current hashrate on the website is the 5 minute time constant one so it takes even longer to rise. It does not mean your hashrate is less than on other pools during that time, it's just far more likely to give you an accurate estimate of hashrate. The per hashrate stats are now updated every minute on the website after one of the many changes recently added to both ckpool and ckdb instead of the old way which updated them every 10 minutes.

Specifically with the sp20, they go through a process of fine tuning each time they start as well so it takes them longer than S3s to get to their final hashrate.

'The right to privacy matters'

lightsword maybe rented their/his/her equipment once more ... total pool hash rate down again for a while.

Would be nice if a few more big hitters pointed hardware this way.




   well we still have 2.7 ph   that is about 1 block a day .

Ok I am a noob...Just got my first miner up and running. (S5) Where can I read up on green/red/bright green and what all that means to me?

Well ... it says on the top of the blocks page what they are Smiley

But the % is simply the % of expected shares per block.
At the moment the average expected shares per block is 41272873894.7
So if we are exactly 100% that means that many shares were accepted by the pool from the previous block to that block.
If it's only 50% then we found the block twice as fast as the expected average.
If it's 200% then it took twice as long as the expected average.
< 100% is good luck
> 100% is bad luck

Some pools display that value inverted so that < 100% is bad and > 100% is good - but then you can't easily see how good or bad the pool is doing over a range of blocks.
Worse with the inverted % is that it can hide how badly the pool has been doing for months ... without people noticing ... ...

With our percentage you can roughly see how well the pool is doing by looking at the blocks page ... and just adding up numbers to see roughly how well a range of blocks went.
So if 5 blocks took 500% then they averaged out ok.
If 5 blocks took 100% then it went REALLY well Smiley

The last 5 blocks add up to ~739% so not very good luck Tongue almost 150% each
(note that adding up the % isn't highly accurate but a reasonable rough estimate)

The previous 5 blocks added up to under 300% - quite good luck Smiley

Thus the last 10 were ... ~1040% so quite OK Smiley

Thanks kano.  I just needed someone to elaborate a little on what it all meant.  Makes sense now Smiley

...
  @ Kano  I am color blind and some of those color shades don't work for me. so  thank you for putting in the actual %
...
Well the text colour is supposed to be clear to see on the background.
The white on red seems to work well for all ranges on red.
The white on green is hard to read when green gets above 190/255 so it switch to blue text when it's brighter.
Are you able to differentiate them with the way I've chosen that?

yeah you did a perfect way for my eyes.

 So when I look at the blocks any that I don't see correctly color wise I do read the text. 

A real P.I.T.A. as certain shades of green vs red or blue vs purple  are basically oh well to me. 

Your system is very good for me thanks again.
