Title: Benchmark [P2Pool vs btcGuild vs Eligius] Post by: semaster on January 15, 2014, 10:47:12 AM As I have a number of different mining hardware I decided to make some practical comparison of mining pools.
So I get two antMiners 180Gh each and pointed one of them to BTCGuild and other to p2pool node. Initial results of mining (180Gh) for period: from 1 January till 14 January 2014: p2pool - BTC0.952269785 VS btcguild (PPS) - BTC0.77025336 Now is running continuous benchmark 6 antminers total 1080Gh on each pool: 14-31 Jan 2014: p2pool - BTC2.99025045 VS btcguild (PPLNS) - BTC5.0158 1-14 Feb 2014: p2pool - BTC3.2248 VS btcguild (PPLNS) - BTC2.7164 VS Eligius BTC2.5137 15-28 Feb 2014: p2pool - BTC2.5711 VS btcguild (PPLNS) - BTC2.4763 VS Eligius BTC2.0456 1-14 March 2014: p2pool - BTC1.1336 VS btcguild (PPLNS) - BTC1.7816 VS Eligius BTC1.7655 15-31 March 2014: p2pool - BTC2.0796 VS btcguild (PPLNS) - BTC1.7523 VS Eligius BTC1.7838 1-14 April 2014: p2pool - BTC1.0615 VS btcguild (PPLNS) - BTC1.1026 VS Eligius BTC1.2293 15-30 April 2014: p2pool - BTC1.2836 VS btcguild (PPLNS) - BTC1.2097 VS Eligius BTC1.2339 1-14 May 2014: p2pool - BTC0.7297 VS btcguild (PPLNS) - BTC0.7750 VS Eligius BTC1.0017 15-31 May 2014: p2pool - BTC0.9148 VS btcguild (PPLNS) - BTC0.7351 VS Eligius BTC0.7290 1-14 June 2014: p2pool - BTC0.4106 VS btcguild (PPLNS) - BTC0.5750 VS Eligius BTC0.5481 15-30 June 2014: p2pool - BTC0.9081 VS btcguild (PPLNS) - BTC0.6732 VS Eligius BTC0.5135 1-14 July 2014: p2pool - BTC0.6109 VS btcguild (PPLNS) - BTC0.3858 VS Eligius BTC0.4402 15-31 July 2014: p2pool - BTC0.6724 VS btcguild (PPLNS) - BTC0.4581 VS Eligius BTC0.4614 1-14 Aug 2014: p2pool - BTC0.4627 VS btcguild (PPLNS) - BTC0.2729 VS Eligius BTC0.2676 15-31 Aug 2014: p2pool - BTC0.2996VS btcguild (PPLNS) - BTC0.3578 VS Eligius BTC0.3613 1-14 Sept 2014: p2pool - BTC0.0878VS btcguild (PPLNS) - BTC0.2675VS Eligius BTC0.2782 15-31 Sept 2014: p2pool - BTC0.1344VS btcguild (PPLNS) - BTC0.1743VS Eligius BTC0.2068 1-14 Oct 2014: p2pool - BTC0.1764VS btcguild (PPLNS) - BTC0.1890VS Eligius BTC0.2478 15-30 Oct 2014: p2pool - BTC0.2102VS btcguild (PPLNS) - BTC0.1907VS Eligius BTC0.1767 Total from 1 Feb 2014: p2pool - BTC16.9718 VS btcguild (PPLNS) - BTC16.0933 VS Eligius BTC15.8041 Benchmark is goin on: 1080GH = 6 x AntMiners pointed to p2pool node - benchmark is running on Elizium node (http://elizium.name) 1080GH = 6 x antMiners to Eligius.st 1080GH = 6 x antMiners to btcguild Title: Re: Benchmark [P2Pool vs btcGuild] Post by: gmaxwell on January 15, 2014, 05:17:38 PM What firmware do you have on those antminers?

Title: Re: Benchmark [P2Pool vs btcGuild] Post by: eleuthria on January 15, 2014, 08:53:24 PM not really a ideal benchmark because of the differences of p2pool and PPS. as you could of been mining during a lucky time for the pool hence higher rewards. also got to factor in pool fees. for example next week the results could be much closer.. p2pool should always beat PPS on BTC Guild in the long run. That's the trade off you make for PPS: Steady income at a high fee vs extremely random income at low/no fee. A much better benchmark is comparing BTC Guild PPLNS to p2pool. But even then, as zerokwel pointed out, luck is going to be what determines anything. In the extremely long run, p2pool will win (low fee). But BTC Guild will be MUCH more steady from week to week. It's up to miners to determine how much steady income, management interface, email alerts, etc., are worth to them. Title: Re: Benchmark [P2Pool vs btcGuild] Post by: Holliday on January 15, 2014, 10:17:24 PM It's up to miners to determine how much steady income, management interface, email alerts, etc., are worth to them. Let's not forget the issues surrounding network centralization and what that may do to confidence in Bitcoin itself (the hand that feeds). We should also keep in mind that mining directly to an address you control has the advantage of requiring no third party trust. Many of us have been around long enough to see miners lose revenue because the traditional pool they mined on was hacked (I'm not suggesting this would happen at BTCGuild, only that it is not beyond the realm of possibility). I do hope the miners consider all of these issues when choosing how to deploy their hashing power. Title: Re: Benchmark [P2Pool vs btcGuild] Post by: raskul on January 27, 2014, 11:42:30 AM bitparking, as long as you are not expecting a steady rate of coins, you'll find long rounds followed by quick blocks... and merge mining with a range of other coins. bitparking. definately. ;D
Title: Re: Benchmark [P2Pool vs btcGuild] Post by: roy7 on January 27, 2014, 02:17:07 PM I agree that comparing to BTCGuild PPLNS would be much more useful. However, the end result should just be that P2POOL comes out ahead because of BTCGuild's 3% fee.
I thought about setting up a pool last year but decided there were already so many good ones, so what would be the point? I made a TRC pool instead. I've thought about doing it again recently, but I still come back to the fact there are multiple good pools and apparently you can charge a 3% fee and be the 2nd largest pool in the world. So you can't even try to compete for traffic by doing a lower fee. Title: Re: Benchmark [P2Pool vs btcGuild] Post by: Kaega on January 28, 2014, 04:50:54 PM apparently you can charge a 3% fee and be the 2nd largest pool in the world Now think of this: Essentially btcguild is getting 3% of the total hashrate for running the service so at 4,534 TH/s is ~136 TH. Throw that into any calculator without fixed costs as it's essentially "free" and realize running a successful pool is making someone very, very rich.

Throw that into any calculator without fixed costs as it's essentially "free" and realize running a successful pool is making someone very, very rich. Certainly the very biggest pools make a lot of money, and the next tier of pools make a profit. Personally I'd like to set up a network of pool nodes around the world with latency based routing to get you automatically to the fastest one and such. But the problem is paying for 6-10 servers around the world gets expensive when it's unlikely you can attract enough miners to even break even.

The pool operates need to maintain both the software and hardware, and need to deal with problems like DDoS.

Despite this, hosted hardware is cheap, software is easy to maintain and DDoS can be mitigated. The expenses are a very small amount of the net generated. Don't get me wrong, I'm not against people profiting from their services. I've been using BTC Guild since early '13 but I have been pondering moving some of my miners over to p2pool like the OP (which we have hijacked the thread). Title: Re: Benchmark [P2Pool vs btcGuild] Post by: semaster on February 01, 2014, 10:24:53 AM result of continuous benchmark is awesome :(
Seems a big unluck on p2pool Continuous benchmark (PPLNS) 6 antminers total 1080Gh: from 14 Jan till 31 Jan 2014: p2pool - 2,99025045 VS btcguild (PPLNS) - 5,0158 - PPLNS in both cases benchmark is going on. eligius.st added to compare in next round Title: Re: Benchmark [P2Pool vs btcGuild vs Eligius (next round)] Post by: stevenf on February 11, 2014, 10:12:22 AM So if I have 1 Antminer S1, would you suggest to use btcguild (PPLNS) ?
How about Slush pool? Title: Re: Benchmark [P2Pool vs btcGuild vs Eligius (next round)] Post by: cr1776 on February 11, 2014, 06:34:14 PM So if I have 1 Antminer S1, would you suggest to use btcguild (PPLNS) ? How about Slush pool? The math shows that p2pool will come out better over time (plus lower fees, in theory lower orphans, mining right to your own address so no worries about lost/stolen coins), many people are impatient or haven't read enough and won't give p2pool a few months to show its benefits. The OP is discussing doing a longer-term test to show this. Pools have plenty of variance so even if the math shows that p2pool is going to come out ahead, there are weeks where it won't. And visa versa, weeks where it would come out way ahead.

Title: Re: Benchmark [P2Pool vs btcGuild vs Eligius] Post by: jedimstr on March 01, 2014, 01:59:02 PM Great benchmark thread.
Any chance you could throw GHash.io into the mix? I know, I know, we don't want to have the same "oh noes GHash.io is gonna take over the network PANIC" we recently had, but hear me out. If we had a reasoned and documented benchmark like you're doing here that compared the top pools like BTCGuild and GHash.io with p2pool and spread word of this on Reddit and elsewhere, given positive results for p2pool in comparison, we may be able to sway some hashpower to public or local nodes of p2pool. Just a few switch overs could make a decent difference in the overall health of the Network. P2pool has been suffering from lack of overall hashpower vs the rest of the network and has been relatively flat in growth for a long while now. That said I still think BTCGuild is the best centralized pool overall and Eleuthuria does an outstanding job that's well worth the 3%. He's always top of the list for my failover pools.

Title: Re: Benchmark [P2Pool vs btcGuild vs Eligius] Post by: AFlatMinor on June 30, 2014, 05:45:17 AM Ok now (as a noob :)) I am really confused.
A mate and I have been mucking around with a couple of relatively small miners (total about 1.2Ths) for the last month or so. We have also been "dabbling" in the rentals of Rigs etc. We have been using "Slush's" pool pretty well 100% except for when I rented a "dragon miner" that had a difficulty setting issue with Slush's so I switched to Ghash. I suppose this is what made me start thinking WTF ??? I have learnt that with Slush's it is hardly worth the risk of renting something for less than 24 hours (based on the avg of 6 block/day - which it has been for the last 13 days) as you are not guarenteed any payout if your rented miner runs out 10-15 mins before the block is found, therfore money down the drain if you rented for a shorter time. However the payout seem quite good for "consistant" hashing etc. In comparison with Ghash - though I haven't spent much time on there - but with the rental I have aimed there it seemed though I got a lot more consistant little payments but in the calculation over the 24hrs it still lost BTC compared to the cost of rental. Am I missing something here? - What is the point of renting a rig if it is only going to cost you BTC in the long run? These might be "noob" questions and I am not trying to be "greedy" as such (I don't mind taking a risk) but I would like to understand better where the various pitfalls of the various pools are and I obviously would like to make a profit from doing this (otherwise the interest in rentals will fade over time) Forums like this help - but I am still quite confused as to where the best place to point rentals is to at least get a decent return. Any advice would be appreciated :D Title: Re: Benchmark [P2Pool vs btcGuild vs Eligius] Post by: eleuthria on June 30, 2014, 06:00:32 AM but with the rental I have aimed there it seemed though I got a lot more consistant little payments but in the calculation over the 24hrs it still lost BTC compared to the cost of rental. Am I missing something here? - What is the point of renting a rig if it is only going to cost you BTC in the long run? Common sense dictates the following: If somebody has hash rate and is willing to lease it to you, why would they charge you less than what it could mine for themselves? Outside of the pool you point it at being lucky during your rental period, you will always lose money renting hash power. Otherwise nobody would ever let you rent the hash power at that price in the first place.

If you leased based off of, say, an annual contract, then you should expect to pay less than what this mining hardware you're leasing will eventually put out in a year. Why? Other guy is basically getting insurance for that year +. Two huge benefits off the top of my head; protects them against bitcoin price drop, allows them to reinvest straight away -- in better hardware, in bitcoins (smart move if they believe the price will continue going up... assuredly beating whatever meager profits you'd realize after a year).... or maybe they'd just take it to Morgan Stanley. ... that being said, all the yearly + contracts I've seen on this board are insanely overpriced + they require you to take that leap and have a large amount of trust in some "company" that nobody has ever heard of before.

No I think windpath is referring to the direct to miners donation functionality of p2pool. See here for a good UI on top of it: http://blisterpool.com/p2pdonate We've received quite a few generous donations since hunter made that page and publicized it on Reddit and on the forums here. The function was always available in p2pool but was rarely used until hunter made the web frontend for it and it got some publicity during one of the 51% panics for GHash on Reddit. It's tapered down a bit since, but I still get a cut of the donations once in awhile.

That is not what I'm talking about, I'm talking about people using /patron_sendmany to donate to miners, while I have never had what I would call a "substantial" donation, I have had MANY small ones.... Edit: Blisterpool, mentioned above, is a web front end to /patron_sendmany, the only public one I know of, great tool! To get an idea of what kind of BTC I'm talking about take a look at the following address, it is mine, and has been on my p2pool node since I started it (5/2/14). The only payments received by this address have been mined coins from p2pool, and donations sent to p2pool miners. http://minefast.coincadence.com/miner.php?id=19vXrwKGUhK4cCU8tA4kWZgbChcmh9a6qj Mined coins paid out from p2pool: 2.82620178 p2pool Blocks paid in: 77 https://blockchain.info/address/19vXrwKGUhK4cCU8tA4kWZgbChcmh9a6qj Total received: 2.8343565 Transactions: 149 So...

Hashing with ~440Gh/s right now. 2: Are the 3.99mBTC "good"? 3: And how do I see if and how much I was getting payed ? Would be nice to get more Information on the userstat page though! I found this site very handy for the payment side when I use to use p2pools http://p2pool.info/ (http://p2pool.info/) on that site it will list all block finds tells ya the strike rate etc. the network hash rate rd time etc.... Now there is few tabs on there just under the where the pool hash rate is labelled recent block,,,, current payouts and active users If you click the tab called current payouts it will list all the payout address that have a share or shares in the current block what ya do on there is look for your address and that will show ya expected payout if the block was hit now...... Now a tip on that page when ya find ya payout address you will notice there a star next to it click on the star and it will change from white to yellow and also highlight the address by highlighting the background around the address.... By doing this it make it very easy to find ya address every time ya go to that page as it remembers the setting of the mark star so all ya have to do when looking at that page after the 1st visit and marking that star is look for the highlighted address ya marked rather than go through all the address again to find yours Title: Re: Benchmark [P2Pool vs btcGuild vs Eligius] Post by: fire000 on August 11, 2014, 02:07:57 PM Also just a tip on that page listed above or warning lol it play a stupid sound at times to turn that off look at the top right of the page there a settings tab there and that alllows ya to turn that sound off

Anyone with news from recent pools that have different methods into distribution of coins that worth giving a look ?? Title: Re: Benchmark [P2Pool vs btcGuild vs Eligius] Post by: PatMan on August 21, 2014, 10:24:55 AM That was some month for p2pool ;D
For reference - despite what the poster above says, p2pool.info has not worked properly since forrestv took ownership of it some time ago, the stats are inaccurate, it does not show all blocks found & the user count is wrong - even when it's working. Currently the only accurate stats page is: http://minefast.coincadence.com/p2pool-stats.php Kudos to coincadence for the hard work in putting it together & providing the community with a working page. ;) Title: Re: Benchmark [P2Pool vs btcGuild vs Eligius] Post by: semaster on September 01, 2014, 07:36:32 AM 15-31 Aug 2014: p2pool - BTC0.2996VS btcguild (PPLNS) - BTC0.3578 VS Eligius BTC0.3613
