Is there a page that lists where you are as far as being paid off?
If not, that'd be a fantastic feature, to be able to see how many people are owed how much before it's your turn.

I'd recommend poclbm instead of Phoenix.
Thanks for the tip, I'll try it out soon.

Seem to have been some issues, right this moment it's (EDIT: Mostly) up.
It was down for at least a few minutes a bit ago though.

Pool down again?

Luke-Jr;
there has been some talk recently on the technical discussion forum, IIRC, about mining namecoins and bitcoins at the same time. If eligius was the first pool to implement this, it would probably become the #1 pool in the world.
This is planned as soon as it has had proper testing. Eligius may be experimental, but not so much that I'm going to risk blocks being invalid completely there has been some talk recently on the technical discussion forum, IIRC, about mining namecoins and bitcoins at the same time.

Luke, does your branch include the latest and greatest phatk from Diapolo?

I saw you created the optimized_phatk branch? Is that it? Was that merged into combo?
This thread is off-topic here, so please continue it on the other forum if there's any more to add

I'd recommend poclbm instead of Phoenix. Phoenix has simply fallen too far behind to be a good choice anymore. poclbm has the latest optimized phatk kernel, plus support for X-Roll-Ntime so it will never be idle just because of network delays. I have a branch of poclbm on Gitorious that will also resend shares when there's a network issue (sometimes this causes invalid/duplicate for the retry, but you can ignore those).
Luke-jr, where's your branch on Gitorius? I'd like to try it out. Thanks.

Updates:
Maybe I should make the anti-DDoS stuff more permanent, and update the whitelist in realtime? Dunno yet...
- I have added every IP to submit a valid share to Eligius, to the whitelist.
- The DDoS/botnet seems to have subsided.
- Therefore, things should be back to normal.

Thanks for the info. My Phoenix client was experiencing notable trouble getting work -- it tries reconnecting pretty soon after its "work queue" runs empty, and thus helped contribute to an excess of incoming connections. I directed it to get work from the alternate port, and it helped. In long term, I need to figure out which command line arguments (ASKRATE?) to pass, as to have Phoenix not reconnect so easily or wait longer for connection attempts to succeed, so that it would not start contributing to an attack via more persistent retrying.

Pool's been going down a lot today.
We seem to be under a light DoS, and Linux won't let more than 256 pending connections in at a time for some reason. In the meantime, I've whitelisted the top 25 miner IPs, and rate-limited port 8337 for everyone else. Port 8332 is passing 100% for now, since the botnet seems to be only using 8337.Botnet operator: I don't care to fight you; just get your stuff fixed so it doesn't kill the pool. Let me know if you need help (with mining sanely, not operating a botnet-- I have no experience with the latter).
Thanks for the update, I was wondering why suddenly my hash rate went flat for a few hours when I wasn't around.
July 18, 2011, 07:00:41 AM
Is the whitelist based on last 24 hours or during your post?
Due to the downtime my tracked average dropped by multiple ghash.

that is already disproven, because eligius pays already more than many pools for example deepbit. deepbit has 4661 Gh/s and eligius only 450Gh/s, but eligius pays 10/9 per share in comparision to deepbit. if it's all about the money they should have switched a very long time ago...
The individual utility function of miners does include more than just price/reward per share. Eligius is small and only has one server, is still experimental, has a history of being offline for hours at a time... people might find it's "worth" earning 10% less if they on the other hand have a more stable connection. Then again, bigger pools are more likely to be hacked / attacked / DDoSed / botnetted... It's not all in the price. July 18, 2011, 04:34:43 AM

Huh, why doesnt it work with mybitcoin? Its still a wallet?
I dont see any reason why eligius cant work with mybitcoin, not to mention the fact that if thats the case(for god knows what reason) my coins just went into retardville which is quite unacceptable.

It "doesn't work" because MyBitcoin basically steals it for themselves, probably due to a bug. I agree, it's unacceptable, but only MyBitcoin can fix their stuff. MtGox's wallet works fine.

Bitcoind cannot track generated transactions on it's own (it does not display on which address these transactions were generated) - this means there is no (easy) way for mybitcoin to verify who owns which generated transaction.
