Sandor set up a script that restarts the wallet every hour or so..... pool was down for almost 2 hours..
Not really, pool was down only 15 min total since it was started, when the wallet crashed. I don't restart the wallet every hour, that would mean 5 min down time since it takes a while to load up the wallet.

Finally slimcoinpool not getting all the blocks Now who's the one instamining.
|
|

How is the update working so far?
Working great, no more lag when propagating blocks. all my share are getting rejected, I'm using the slimminer from where the wallet is, should I use a diff miner? Compile slimminer from here : https://github.com/slimcoin/slimminer

My nodes are up again.
addnode=144.76.139.103:10001 addnode=144.76.139.104:10001 addnode=144.76.139.105:10001 addnode=144.76.139.106:10001 addnode=144.76.139.107:10001 addnode=144.76.139.108:10001 addnode=144.76.139.109:10001 addnode=144.76.139.110:10001 addnode=144.76.139.111:10001
Keep port 10000 please.

Still unable to sync the pool nodes. This is frustrating.
The next update (within 10 minutes) WILL solve this, I finally found the "bug" causing the slow propagation. Good, looking forward to it.

Test pool is up : http://106.3.225.46/./shinyminer -o stratum+tcp://106.3.225.46:6666 -O ADDRESS:x -t 1 If i mine in this pool, is there a requirement for 15 g ram? Yes, minimum requirement for this coin is 15 GB. 15 gb of ram? Who has that much? I have 8 GB and i have a very expensive PC. My PC is ~4 years old and has 32 GB RAM... RAM is really not that expensive.

For anyone unable to sync up to 159xx use :
addnode=144.76.139.103:50000 addnode=144.76.139.104:50000 addnode=144.76.139.105:50000 addnode=144.76.139.106:50000 addnode=144.76.139.107:50000 addnode=144.76.139.108:50000 addnode=144.76.139.109:50000 addnode=144.76.139.110:50000 addnode=144.76.139.111:50000

Syncing will take ages at this pace... who is past block 10000?

...i give it a try... a few questions: a) why the wallet is taking 15GB ram with this conf while i mine with sandors miner? gen=0 # 0 if you don't want to mine mint=1 # for proof of stake
ramhogthreads=1 # 15 GB per thread
b) is it possible to see the network hashrate somewhere? a) Because the wallet is verifying blocks, this requires hashing the block header with ramhog, and it's faster to keep the 15GB allocated than to allocate and free it every time. b) Don't think so, haven't seen that. Regarding to a), I think if verifying a block validity requires so much resource then even a child can shut down this network with a simple DDoS attach. Our best computers can do about 50 hash/s. I guess flooding the network with more than 50 invalid block/s it's not so hard to do, then the attacked nodes will slow down significantly. A good hacker can manipulate the network easily. Let me know if I'm wrong. . Yes, DDos'ing is very harsh on the network, but it will also getting you banned instantly. if (IsProofOfWork() && fCheckPoWHash && !CheckProofOfWork(GetPoWHash(), nBits)) return DoS(500, error("CheckBlock() : proof of work failed")); Note that it gives a 500 penalty points, much higher than the default 100.

I have a stratum pool ready for this coin, testing it ATM. PM if you want to join.

source code is better. I can't use it with -t 4. The usage of cpu is few. Works fine here. Source will be provided soon. could you please give an conf file example? { "url" : "http://127.0.0.1:PORT", "user" : "shinycoinrpc", "pass" : "shinycoinpass", "threads" : 4 }
Change PORT to shinycoin RPC port. Really straightforward.

The bottleneck with this mining algorithm isn't cpu power or how much memory you have, it's how fast that memory is filled. I guess the more cpu threads the faster, but it's not really the case.
