oh, yah, since http://qrk.coinmine.pl/ is way more than 50% of the hashing power, it causes some issues i wouldn't attempt to solo mine w/o a very well connected quarkcoind, so you can maybe access the other 30% or so they tend to orphan a lot of *blocks, including *some of their own. it runs pretty slow |

for the record, I thought I'd say that the displayed 'efficiency' on any quark p2pool is .. not correct example: 176.221.46.81:8372 reports 99.79% efficiency, with 659 shares, 111 dead 5.9.24.81:8372 reports 99.36% efficiency with 6102 shares, 39 dead it's some issue with pool rate and local rate not being the same # (as they should be, since all these are operating independently) .. re: minerd, I don't recall seeing that in malwarebytes, but it flags cgminer, 'cause of same issue oh, also, i have 5.9.24.81:11973 set up with connection max 250, with 220 incoming connections allowed. it's, ah, full right now, but if you need to DL blockchain it should be fairly fast off of there. i may restart it later with 700'ish connections, same as bitcoind used to run |

Easy P2pool mining:
1)Run Start_miner.bat
2) If it runs then you simply need to adjust .bat file as follows:
replace QV41kKfw9L6qNr43SNRFci9HzgsxeJf5yh to address you would like your quark sent too.
3) Profit! you will see payments coming into the address you specified in 2.
Example:
Minerd.exe -q -a quark --url 176.221.46.81:8372 -O QV41kKfw9L6qNr43SNRFci9HzgsxeJf5yh:x
Update * added .txt and .bat to archives.
is 176.221.46.81 your pool? that gets super high # of DOA |

i am looking at hashrates grow at huge rates at http://qrk.coinmine.pl... will the pleb still be able to mine this in the near future? who cares? use one of the p2pools instead P2Pool - http://176.221.46.81:8372/static/ex_mac's Pool - http://qrk.mine-pool.net/zvs' Pool - http://nogleg.com:8372/ (Down) eule's Pool - http://qrkpool.tk:8868/static/ (Down) and mine isn't down (nogleg.com:8372) btw, I noticed all the altcoins jumped in value on crypsty again, i had everything in the cheapest one i could find that trades in bitcoinds, GDC. much better gains than Quark ed: my suggestion, wait til it drops back down to 1/10th of the value again and go for it again, maybe a bitcoin or two ed2: the 1st one has 3% fee, 2nd one has 1%, and I put 1% on mine too. but i'm the only one that mines on my own pool! how elite is that |

I killed all my bitcoind nodes (@ approx 5:00PM CST). I doubt it'll have any effect whatsoever on propagation, but I can't help but be a bit curious... Anyone know what timezone the daily charts on http://bitcoinstats.com/network/propagation/ are based on? 2013/11/28 5.1 seconds 22.4 seconds 1.4 seconds 4.7 seconds 2013/11/29 6.0 seconds 35.0 seconds 1.7 seconds 6.5 seconds hmm. well, first off, i guess the average block size was bigger since the difficulty just went up. but that's much higher than % of block size increase anyway, The bandwidth and the storage space issues have already been discussed. You cannot get away with it by just saying that storage is cheap... We must abandon this kind of religious thinking where we just hope that storage will get cheaper and network speed bigger just as much as we need. my buffalo node had 5TB upstream used from bitcoind after 25 days, the hetzner used more , when it wasn't being dos'ed or ddos'ed |

What amazes me is that people still don't realize what is happening.
What's your take on it? i will explain - and no it's not the some fool brought all the alts theory - we can do better than that hey ? OK, several fools bought all the alts, after a crypsty mention in the press. Is that better? Have any of those coins made any gains in the last 2 days? They're all down since Wednesday night-Thursday morning EST. |

To all those wondering what happened. It was not marketing nor anything QRK related. That's just FUD. Almost all alt-coins were pumped 100-300% in the last few days. Also lots and lots of new hashing all of sudden (which caused the problems yesterday). Just look at the charts at http://coinmarketcap.com/If you're big player, pump, mine & dump (maybe?) new coins with low diff sounds like a plan. All of this started when BTC hovered between 900-980, as if big players we're laying preparations on the alts for when BTC goes above 1k. Now in hindsight it seems kind of logical that alts will try to somehow (as best as they can) follow BTC's growth, but at the same time, this was clearly an all around orchestrated pump. If BTC were to really skyrocket and go to >2-3k I highly doubt alts can follow. Be careful during these following days. I already offloaded the 1.5m or so coins I had I started mining again for kicks, too ed: aha, here we go, https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=260031.msg3311965#msg3311965i did have like 4 or 5m at one point, though. this recent price increase is artificial, some person w/ no clue got on crypsty and bought every single alt coin. i dumped as soon as i saw it There was no single large order; there were a lot of large single sellers (like you). By design, I think initially quark is supposed to be owned by a handful early adapters, and it's distribution should be done by their selling it. well, my distribution is done. i sold the first few millions for around .00000150, so i was happy to take .00003500, which I think was artificially high due to a single buyer & then you have the bandwagon jumpers i would consider buying back in at .00000250 or so and my pool got its first block in about 35 days! woot |

hey zvs, is your quark pool back up, that is the pool i mined on all the time. it had good shares.
j
it's back up right now, but might not be for long, haha nogleg.com:8372 i have been mining on it by myself for a few hrs ed: i'll reset the p2pool now back to 0 shares, so if you wanted to mine on it, now would be the time to start.. i'll keep it up for the next 12 hrs at least.. have a backup pool set  ed2: i'll restart it once more, so it's even. lots of DOA at start because share difficulty takes a while to adjust |

What's your take on it? I suspect his take is a lot like mine... some fool with too much money put a lot of bitcoins into Crypsty and then bought every single alt currency on the market. Look at all the charts |

Anyone know what timezone the daily charts on http://bitcoinstats.com/network/propagation/ are based on? How many did you shut-down? the top 3 on here https://blockchain.info/hub-nodesplus one other top secret one! (remember 129.132.xx.xx is evil) Wow, they were relaying like crazy...  Did you have any particular tuning (I saw the question raised on bitcoin-dev list, but didn't see any answer) to reduce checking or make any relevant step faster? I had blockchain stored in ramfs (which requires removing all the diskspace checks from the source)... also the 600+ connections... also 1gbit connections, so after a block hit I'd see something like 2000kb-25mb-70mb-30mb-5000kb in dstat but probably most important was lowering the sleep timers in net.cpp none of the verification steps were removed, aside from it checking available disk space |

I read at some places that i need dummy plugs to keep mining without a monitor, but in some other post they say i dont need the dummy plugs, do i need them?
2x 5870
thank you!!
don't mine with gpus the dummy plugs were for an ancient version of app sdk or catalyst? i just used 12.1 on my 5870s |

Its 64 bit.
Thanks,

this happens to me too, but it doesn't crash. i've never seen it higher than 6GB it takes about an hour to get up to 1.5GB or so, with 600+ connections ed: oh, it's related to transactions for sure. when i remove all priority transactions and set tx fee to 0.001, it goes up much, much slower |

ah, i remember when i picked up my datavac duster and it blew out clouds of dust from my CPU and especially out of my PSU (there was some godawful amount of dust in that mofo). it also has these nifty attachments that amongst other things do a wonderful job of blasting out food particles that are stuck in your keyboard
i must say that I would greatly fear it if my CPU was overheating from DL'ing the blockchain
