Just means we pay out 20 blocks early. If it gets orphaned at 121 block - we loose out.
Alright, that makes sense then. I believe technically the network is fully confirmed at 120 anyway and the daemon is just adding an extra 20 for safety.

Nope - our stratum server shat itself - moved to our stable eu servers. Should have no more issues.
Are your confirms actually working at 120? Just wondering because I believe the maxcoin daemon marks them immature until 140 so I'm wondering how that is working for you.

Our pool is always up as well, feel free to us it any time the other pools are down. Working fine. 0% fees as usual. max.cutk.comNutNut, you might want to set your confirms to 140 or you could be in for a nasty surprise (actually it MIGHT work most of the time but that's right on the edge). Or do you have a loaded wallet feeding out early?

Is there a chart somewhere that shows the difficulty over time?

Our pool is working and paying out. Bring your hash power, we can take it! 0% fees max.cutk.com

Yes, it's what we are using and probably a whole bunch of pools soon. It seems to be working.
|
|

That could only be me, though. As I noticed my situation is usually differs from others.
Seeing the same thing here (as I posted above) so you're not alone.

Sweet, more pools popping up. Harder to DDOS us all. Come join us and get 0% fees. In fact we might be the only 0% fee maxcoin pool. PPLNS 0% fees VARDIFF max.cutk.com

OK, I think the new cudaMiner (from git) is broken. It "works" on the new public stratum that was created for pools (I don't think the stratum is working correctly though) but it does not work on the others like dwarfpool where it gets TONS of rejects. Like 100 rejects for every "yay".
Anyone else see this?

Guys, I changed maxcoin.cpp to use two CUDA streams in an alternating and overlapping fashion, like it's done in scrypt.cpp and scrypt-jane.cpp. This should get the same performance boost as the previous commit, except that it doesn't raise the CPU utilization so much.
It's really hard for me to verify that this works though. If someone able to compile the sources would report back if he can still pool-mine at the same Yay! rate as before, this would be great. I don't have a pool setup for doing testing on my own, that's why I am asking...
This new version gives insanely more yay!'s than before. Probably 5-10 times as many. What does that mean? It makes the hashrate in mpos way off too. I went from 70 Mh/s to 700 Mh/s on the pool, lol. I get about 10% CPU usage on a Q9550 @ 3.4 Ghz.

There should be a lot of pools coming online now that a stratum is finally available. The swarm is coming, they can't DDOS them all! We're up and running too, BTW. Currently testing looking for the first block. 0% fees, baby! max.cutk.comAlso BTW, cudaMiner was instrumental in my testing of the pool so thanks! The difficultly is so high that I could not have found test shares on CPU in a timely manner.

A whole bunch of pools should be coming online soon. We're up and running PPLNS, 0% fees, VARDIFF, DDOS protection. max.cutk.com

Had to reboot (after a driver crash while tuning my GPU clock). When I restarted I can no longer sustain the trick of running a flash app in a browser. I go to someplace like flasharcade.com and I get the same speed boost (80%) that I got before the crash, but then the software apparently stops being GPU accelerated and my speeds fall back.
I mined for 12 hours straight without losing the "flash in the browser speed boost," but now I can't get the effect to last longer than 20 to 30 seconds. Any ideas on how to force flash to keep using the GPU? Assuming of course that's what is causing the speed up in the first place.
Use Linux and all your problem will go away.

Maybe this has already been mentioned (sorry don't have time to read the 50 new pages, lol) but for anyone wanting to compare, the maxcoin cgminer runs at around 335 Mh/s on a 280X using less than 200W (ie. it's not using the full ability of the card).
Not sure how that compares to the equivalent nVidia. My GTX560-448 is happily cranking along at 85 Mh/s with cudaMiner. I haven't measured the wattage on my GTX560. It runs relatively cool so it's also probably less than scrypt which is about 200W (I'm undervolted).

how long do the blocks stay as "immature?"
AFAIK 140 blocks (confirms) according to the source code. About 70 minutes.
|
|

These pool ops need to increase their difficulty, it's way too low for cudaMiner. Loads the server down trying to keep track of all the shares.
|

The networkhashps is 280G when ypool is down. There must be some hiding pools going on.
The big farms have their own OpenCL miner and are using it to "solo" while DDOS'ing the only few public pools. What we need is a normal stratum OpenCL miner and then the stratum backend needs to be made public so that dozens of pools can start (been waiting for this myself; I get no response whatsoever from the max devs). They couldn't DDOS them all at that point.

I think maxcoinpool is using a regular stratum server (where did they get that?) not x.pushthrough
It also seems to not work that great.
|
|

Yeah but it's not the app the AMD/ATI crowd need yet. Closed source (always risky), Windows-only, can't mine on everything.
|
|

Linux version? Who even uses Windows any more?!
