I only tried a mining pool for a few hours before giving up on it.  When I was getting those messages, it was because the pool network was hosed.  I also saw extremely long deadlines when I tried to telnet to the mining pool ports directly.

The "no deadline" messages look perfectly normal to me for a 4TB drive.  I just pulled the latest log for one of mine, and out of 276 blocks, no deadline was reported before the next block started 74 times.  In your first "no deadline" message, the block was found before you had finished scanning your HD.  In the second, it had only just started scanning the drive.

Can someone familiar with dcct's new miner please answer this for me?  Roll Eyes

I'm mining at a pool but it's not uray's, it's another pool based on uray's.


Anyone using dcct's miner care to help me out?

I'm running 4TB on a quad-core with 4GB RAM (Win7).

Both the "burst-pool-miner" and the new "burst-miner" miners absolutely thrashes whatever drive I have the pagefile setup on (causing the system to be pretty much unusable).

I have already disabled prefetch/superfetch like several have suggested and the pagefile usage is a lot better, but still gets hit up really hard.

I've tested this same system running Ubuntu instead of Windows 7... and it works perfectly fine... same hardware, different OS.

On the other hand, I have another system with a 4TB, 4GB RAM, but running Windows Server 2012... and has 0 issues with resources like Win7.

What is going on with the Memory/Pagefile usage in Windows 7 when mining? and does anyone know of a solution?

can you elaborate on how the payments work on these pools?


On uray based pools, the pool takes the one best deadline you find each block and runs it through a formula to give you a score. When the pool finds a block, it splits it up based on the scores users have.

On my v2 pool, the pool has a set deadline target, and amount of shares to keep. The miner submits each share that results in a deadline under the target. The pool always maintains a fixed amount of shares, so when a new one is submitted, the oldest one is discarded. When a block is found, it splits the block up based on the number of shares each user has in that fixed size buffer.

Will you make the source code available for the v2 pool?
I need to check it for bugs more thoroughly before I would consider releasing it.

ok, well that's a start, haven't found anywhere where someone has specifically stated how it pays out. interesting..

Thanks!!


Payments have been lowered to 100 on my pool. Given we find a block...

I also might get a friend to work, or at least try and make an Android wallet.
But for that we need coins. And to get coins I need miners on the pool

No

EDIT: sorry, I don't know how it works....but I'll guess...it counts shares, when a block is found(say 3000 shares are submitted before a block is found, and you submitted 150) then you get 5% of 9500 coins, but then it waits till you have 500 balance, then pays out.

The new one stores a lot more in memory before it writes to disk. I'm guessing this helps cut down on the disk seeking a lot.

Oh thanks, I missed that because I had already set SSIZE by hand to max out the memory.

how are the payouts figured on this pool? I found a block with 763 deadline, but havent been awarded anything  its been almost an hour. how many confirmations before it his my wallet?

Whats this about a 30% fee?? WTF!!

1.5% fee, 30% of the 1.5% fee goes to the gui(so 0.45% to gui, 1.05% to maintenance and fanepatent)

EDIT: actually was changed to 1% fee, so 0.3% to gui, 0.7% to fane and maintanence

30% of the fee will go towards developers of the windows GUI AIO tool.

You just lost all your *nix miners. Tongue

lmfao, the thing is, 'nix users don't need a GUI. They usually prefer command line. lol

Also, a GUI for newbies will bring more people overall to burst, which is good for everyone!

Well this turned out to be my worst investment...wouldn't recommend clouding mining.

Will use what I made and set a buy order sub 20 sat...
this sounds like a plan.
