i believe around the 18th or 19th at one point it was "only" about -250

I don't understand why payouts aren't made from profits and thus no deficit should ensue.

It's PPS, so people get paid whether a block is found or not..  the pool operator takes on the risk.

It's had some particularly horrid luck, except for about a week there in mid-march.

maybe a business partner is needed

Thanks movellan for taking the time to reply.

     First, let me start off by saying I am fairly computer literate.(well... at least that is how I have made a living for the past 25+ years) I have an AMD 8350 (8 core, black edition) with 16 gigs of memory and a gigabyte 7850 OC running on windoze 8 64 bit, with a DSL (6.0 Mbps down, 512 Kbps up) connection.
     I am using bitcoin-0.8.1-win32 (v0.8.1-beta, Qt 4.8.3) and litecoin (v0.6.3c-beta, Qt 4.7.4) and cgminer.While I have no problem pool mining on this rig as long as my wallet (bit or lite) is closed, if I open my wallet and leave it open, in under an hour my internet connection becomes virtually useless. The same thing happens even if I am not mining,

just opening the wallet and leaving it open kills my internet connection (no mining).

I have been playing with both bit and lite coins and have tried pool and solo mining on both.(yes, I know solo on bitcoin is a waste but maybe some new hardware in the future)

    
    As far as the task manager goes, the memory usage climbs to about 5% but everything seems normal.

The only thing I can see is "active connection(s)" after running for a short time (~15 minuets) the active connections is between 15 to 25 but since other family member like to use the internet I have to stop the wallet.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, if I can give anymore info just let me know.



someone is downloading the blockchain from you and saturating your upstream.

only solution is third party programs, or possibly something like QoS
1865  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: The minimum transfer fee is not trivial anymore on: March 30, 2013, 03:37:03 PM
I changed my fee to 0.00001 BTC, only 1hour to get confirmated  Wink

0.00001?  that's strange, i think very few nodes would relay that

you can change in the source code the cost of creation from .0005 to .0001 and it will be confirmed within a few blocks most likely.    0.0001 is the minimum relay fee, 0.0005 is the minimum creation fee.   0.0001 is 9/10ths of a cent

Pool wallet is empty.

And pool is in red for more than 500 BTC, so it seems it is now paying using confirmed coins only instead of keep adding new coins when they're needed.

spiccioli

yah, started on monday or tuesday, paying as blocks mature

looks like as of right now it has about 150BTC after deducting everyone's due payment amounts (from the 60 wallet +126 immature)

ed: it was in worse shape, think around 50-75 or so
1868  Bitcoin / Mining / Re: IS THIS SHIT FOR REAL? $10k+ for a pre-order????? on: March 29, 2013, 05:05:59 PM
These ASICs generate BTC, not USD. I've been saying for a while now, I wouldn't sell my preorders for less than 200BTC, as thats what I can expect to make within a reasonable amount of time. That is independent of the fact that BTC is now ~$75. If BTC was $20, it would still be worth 200BTC.

this is bizarre reasoning to me, but maybe it makes sense to people that grew up with some million dollar trust fund

EMC is right at the average for block solving in terms of shares/time. 49.41% where 50% is average over the past 50 blocks.  Welcome to 7 million difficulty...

i think a lot of people must not understand difficulty, considering the amt of money being tossed around on asic pre-orders

they will probably be about 1/4th the value once they start hashing

far better to capitalize on the current hysteria, and that includes that $4000 offer

1874  Economy / Computer hardware / Re: [WTS] Avalon from #1 batch on: March 29, 2013, 04:17:48 PM
You're now mining at 4 BTC/day - and will have made 750 BTC in 187 days if nobody else joins in the asic game. However, the difficulty is going to jump at least 66 million in 1 month - then, you'll be making 0.4 btc / day and it will take you 3 years to mine 750 BTC.

So whoever bites on this offer is clearly an idiot. And you are clever, my friend, for trying to rip off people with lots of BTC and not enough brains - wish you good luck! Your investment is RAPIDLY declining in value - while, if I had 750 BTC, it's value is growing by 10% per day, looking at the USD/BTC ratios last few days...

sooner or later the diff will be as you write "66M", but in a month.. well that is "delusional" Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy
In my calculations it will only happen when avalon and bfl will ship majority of their orders at once in a very short timeframe - but each of us is smarter than others and every individual thinks their calculations are correct, including me Smiley I have my believes what will happen during this year in the btc asic world, and I'm very lucky I had faith to order 1st batch avalon, At the moment I'm 1 of 300 lucky persons in the world Smiley

so offer still stands, I'm not in the situation that I need to sell my Avalon, I enjoy watch my script that I made and hear the sound of every euro I make, depending on the mined btc's and exchange rate Smiley I must say it is very nice to hear coin-drop in every 4-5 minutes or so Smiley


the only thing delusional would be someone paying 750 btc for this

because, either a) the price of btc will fall, and they'll be out a whole lot, or b) the price of btc will rise, and they would have been better off buying 750 btc...  

750 btc is $86,000, why even clutter with such nonsense

keep watching your script
1875  Bitcoin / Pools / Re: [3500 GH/s]HHTT -Selected Diff/Stratum/PPS/Paid Stales/High Availability/Tor on: March 28, 2013, 09:25:12 AM

I haven't found anything wrong.  Any chance someone in your network/isp started blocking 3333?

My box rebooted so I was on anyway. Just another datapoint that 3333 is apparently still not working. Doesn't look to be the network:

Quote
$ telnet stratum.hhtt.1209k.com 3333
Trying 54.244.136.135...
Connected to stratum.hhtt.1209k.com.
Escape character is '^]'.

It is the exact same code that is handling connections on each of the ports, so I don't know what is up.  Just because you can connect doesn't rule out some sort of content filter that interferes later but that does seem less likely.

I had problems with 3333 on two of my systems, just used :80 and it was fine.

Probably some windows setting somewhere.

1876  Bitcoin / Pools / Re: Pay On Target: New High variance payout System Offered by Ozcoin on: March 28, 2013, 09:18:06 AM
This payout system still fun as hell even tho in negative =P

I agree! Since I have such a low hashrate (400-450Mh/s), I enjoy the gambling because I know I wouldn't make much regardless.
it's why I started mining on HHTT, although i've been doing consistent 128's for the last few weeks, I used to swap around between difficulties... 

e.g.

pushpool   2013-02-10 00:49:18   Y   Y      65536   0.49519937   00000000 00000029 8cccf8dc

max setting on there is 65536 though, not sure about this system

1878  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Last 20000 blocks take ages to download with less than 10 connections? on: March 27, 2013, 12:43:36 PM
Very strange thing here.

If I have less than 10 connections (normally Cool, then the client syncs the blocks really slowly. As soon as I get 10 or more, it starts syncing really quickly again.

I'm assuming this is normal?

not really

i use  listen=0, connect=xx.xx.xx.xx, maxconnections=1 when i'm downloading blockchain

if you don't control which nodes you connect to, it should be random, whether you have 8 connections or 200
1879  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: 0.8.1 Bitcoind Server performance? on: March 27, 2013, 12:36:31 PM
Currently running Bitcoind server on a VPS, running the latest version of Ubuntu (64-bt). It doesnt have very much ram, only 1.5 gigs, but its been holding up pretty decent. It receives anywhere from 3000-5000 + RPC requests a day. Can be a bit slugish at times, and every now and then it just crashes due to not enough memory. I have it set up to auto-restart on crashes, so not a big deal.

Anyways, Iv noticed that since upgrading from 0.7 to 0.8.1, its been a bit slower and crashing way more often. Instead of running out of RAM and dieing maybe a couple times a day, its happening regularly, like once every 30-60 minutes or so.

Anyone have any tips on how to improve performance, besides just upgrading the memory?

in main.h

change

static const unsigned int MAX_ORPHAN_TRANSACTIONS = MAX_BLOCK_SIZE/xxxxxx;

i don't remember what it defaults at, mine is set to 1 since i have lots of memory.  so it has tens of thousands of orphan transactions.  raise the # and you'll use less memory
1880  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: Avalon - Batch #3 pricing on: March 27, 2013, 06:21:33 AM
The pricing seems to have increased dramatically compared to the 1st and 2nd batches. 1200, 1500, and currently ~5300+. It seems to be a very large jump, but if you have had the coin, then you can justify the cost.


You've got to think of it in BTC, not USD.  Batch 1 was like ~125BTC, Batch 2 was ~77 BTC, Batch 3 ~ 75BTC.  They're getting cheaper. 

You're paying BTC to mine BTC to use in a BTC economy.  Don't value the BTC as USD and it's not a problem.

yah, but the BTC economy isn't north korea

how about i sell you one of my 5830's for 5 btc?  that's cheaper than they were 6 months ago

Where your argument fails is that anyone can buy a vastly superior spankin' new GPU that whoops a 5830 for 4BTC. See?

https://www.bitcoinstore.com/advancedsearch/result/?q=radeon+7950

Not so much with the ASIC mining unit competition.

How does competition or lack thereof make my argument fail?

The original poster stated that something was getting cheaper because it cost less bitcoins, ignoring their intrinsic value.

I will buy some new 7950's and sell them to you for 3.9BTC, as the price people are willing to pay for BTC is $85 at the moment.

They can be found retail at $275.
