Of course nothing ever goes simple, anyone have a clue for this;

~/slush0-stratum-mining-proxy-52e6fd2$ ./mining_proxy.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "./mining_proxy.py", line 49, in
from stratum import settings
ImportError: No module named stratum
Huh

Well, i managed to make this go away, how? by rerunning the two comands for installing this. I hate when this happens. So now i'm fighting with making the computer's ip fixed. i found a few howto's on google, but no joy yet. i have a couple more to try tomorrow. This is on ubuntu 12.04 lts.

None. Yes. Not important at all if you use a miner that supports stratum. No. Not at all. No. Yes.

You don't need it unless you're using something that only can communicate via Getwork, and you want to use the more efficient stratum communications across the internet. It doesn't do anything other than that.

You'd want to use the proxy if you had, for example a ASICMiner Blade which only communicates via Getwork, and you were using a pool that no longer supports Getwork. There' no other reason to use it.

How much of a load does this put on the CPU? Is it light enough to co-host on a rig running cgminer with USB Erupters? What is important to this program? Is it RAM intensive? Disk intensive? I/O intensive? Can it run well on a 12 year old laptop running win XP.

I'm just trying wrap my head around this. Is Python interpreted or compiled? never used Python.
