Thanks for the feedback!   Ive been quietly introducing changes and should probably be announcing them more often here when i make them.   As always any input is appreciated.  AFAIK,  ive implemented most of whats been asked for to date with the next plans revolving around a new hopping proof scoring method and a more flexible and "everyone friendly" donation scheme. (let users decide if they donate to developers and how much and implement the proper code to handle this). 

On a different note,  seems like our inital bad luck is being offset by pretty damn good luck lately *knocks on wood*  Given current difficulty we are doing pretty damn well lately (IMO).

Noticed the same thing when i woke up this morning   Ive also mailed btcwatch to see if they will add us to their hashrate graphs.  We are bigger than several others they are already listing.

Indeed!   I guess that can only be a good thing

Working on it!

Statistics are live and method is a form of proportional at the moment.

Oh i thought you made the design yourself.... thats different then... :/

Im not a huge fan of captcha's   they drive me nuts!

Very cool!  We should merge your design idea into the official source tree and ill maintain the backend code and you can maintain the design.... what do you think?

Ok clear!  THanks for the reply

make that three


We also have the feeling that we are running at a bit under average but hoping that it will even out... with three blocks in one day its looking up again.  

FYI, I've also upgraded bitcoind to newest x.24 version and applied some nice patches for multithreading and native longpolling among other things.




Very curious to see them  Ill put them up on the site somewhere if you want when they are ready.

spoke too soon.... it just went down to just under 350m

Im seeing the same thing regarding a possible memory leak.  Continual growth of used memory over the last 24 hours or so... up to 453368kB now and growing...

I wanted it only to diff against 0.99 since you guys said you were running that version without problems so i was curious to see what changes had been made in 0.99. 

Logical, no?

Testing bitcoind v0.3.24 + Joel Katz v0.99 4diff on our pool now.... so far so good in the last 15 mins...

Does anyone know the difd from 0.98 and 0.99 ?  couldnt find a copy of the older version anywhere.

another long round but we are running strong with the new backend.   

UPDATE:

Guys,

 sorry its been so quiet from my end.   Ive had my head buried in a mess of code that was simplecoin for the last days.   What a nightmare.  We were dealing with heavy server loads due to very bad design grandfathered in from simplecoin (and probably mining farm before that ??).  

At any rate, i believe i have solved it or at least GREATLY improved it (on the scale of 400x faster and less load) so now that i have a workable backend structure i can build on i will move forward with all the icing on the cake (stats, etc) that will really make the site pop.   Im gonna take a few days off from coding on this project tho since my other duties have been neglected but new and cool things should start creeping in soon.   If you have ideas,  PM me and ill throw them on my todo list.    Better stats for blocks and payout history are number 1 on my list.

Please let me know asap via PM or reply to this topic if you see anything that looks off to how it used to be.  There might be a few small oddities for the FIRST next paid block (131,887 i think) but after that all should be ok.   Let me know if you have issues and i will handle them ASAP.

Thanks for bearing with us through yet ANOTHER horrible round and here is hoping that the next one hits more on schedule.   If server load was any issue for causing such a long round (highly doubt it but possible) then at least thats one more thing we dont have to worry about again for awhile (i hope) !

No shit! grrrrr!



Its on the list... gimme a bit of time for this.   Can you send me a PM with some example output how you would like the JSON object to look like?  Something easy for you to parse?  PM it to me and ill get started on this.

I actually changed it back before you got it working.... the fix was just to upgrade to latest phoenix if you are on linux.

Klaaster,

I think i read that had something to do with phoenix.... maybe i can run a test in a bit if you are around to test with me.   The miners i have tested (not phoenix) do in fact get new work pushed when the network finds a block but it might be something phoenix specific.   PM me if you are around to test a bit with me.

Yeah probably but i need to sort some other things first which have a little higher priority.  I put your request on my to-do list tho
