Post by: fedeperez2 on June 07, 2021, 10:11:40 PM
hi, like 1 week ago, i have this error 1 per 24 hours: 2021.06.07:21:04:20.905: main Stratum thread not responsive for 51 s
2021.06.07:21:04:20.905: wdog Fatal error detected. Restarting.

i dont know what is it... internet? the hive on pool? my 2 rigs are getting the same error, is not a hardware error. Please help

second question does it restart and mine on?

Check your response time to the stratum server. The built in command line ping utility measures your latency in reaching the server, but it doesn't measure the response time which can cause significant latency if the stratum is overloaded. 2miners have released a tool which also measures the response time from a pools stratum, not just the connection time from your network.

Often the performance of various mining pools is verified using the built-in `ping` utility. While this approach is feasible, it is more important to measure the actual response time from the pool, as it may be busy or using some geolocation-based forwarding solution that brings the connecting endpoint closer to the user but then it still takes some significant time for the actual data to be transferred.

Therefore we find useful a mining-specific approach when we measure the amount of time required to connect and successfully pass authentication using the Stratum protocol. This provides more accurate readings in regards of what the mining software will actually do when mining.

We use this tool at 2Miners internally to measure the performance of our pools. It is capable of pinging through IPv4 and IPv6 with or without TLS.

**TL;DR**: The ping to the pool server's box is not as significant as the actual response time through Stratum.
