Title: How to tell if getting DDOS attacked?
Post by: ethought on June 02, 2013, 05:23:45 PM
Does any one know how I can tell if my pool is getting DDOS attacked?

Running stratum server on debian.

The pool was running fine for the first few days, finding blocks quickly and consistently. Now it seems to have slowed to a crawl.

Look at your activity spikes. Abnormal over-activity that you can't account for = DDOS.

I cannot see any activity spikes just taking much, much longer to find a block than it should be. The search for clues goes on...
