1  Bitcoin / Mining / Re: Pool hopping - I'm 12 and what is this? on: June 07, 2011, 05:42:32 AM
Use google or the search function here, you already know the search term "pool hopping"...

We really don't need another thread coming up with this, can't you just start a "I BOUGHT 5 6990 GPUS, WHERE'S MY FREE MONEY?!" thread like every other kiddie here? Tongue

Smiley

Already did the good ol' "site:forum.bitcoin.org pool hopping" thing.  None of the threads I read were definitive - just more "I think it's bad" or "that's cheating."  There's some math in a few threads that doesn't seem to work out...

Most of these topics are ancient in internet-years (since February) and many of the pools seem to have implemented all sorts of new fangled stuff.  As I mentioned, I got a more consistent payout with no more/less work, but I certainly didn't make a lot (and even made less when pools got "lucky").

If it's acceptable, then there's no reason I shouldn't be able to release a proxy that round-robin's getwork requests.  It could be a simple solution to the nonsense "51%!!!111@" threads but I don't want to get accused of "cheating my moneyz!"


I've been trying to figure out what pool hopping is myself. Couldn't find some definition in the forums or on google

I've been using this pool for a while.  I use ufasoft on my i7-920 and poclbm with my GTS250.  I've noticed that my cpu mining gets invalid results once maybe 20.  My gpu gets invalids once or twice out of 10.  My gpu mines at 28m whereas my cpu mines at 6.  Why does my gpu get invalids so often?  Is it just because of the different miners?
What address?

Both point to the us pool

I'm mining with a GTS 250 and I get about 28-29m on poclbm but when I use phoenix, I can't get above 23m.  Has anyone else experienced this?  Is phoenix just less efficient with Nvidia cards?

I have a really really old laptop. The internal HDD is so small I'm not sure if it'll even run Windows 3.1.  I don't know the details off the top of my head but I think it's an ~1985 laptop.  Bulky and heavy too.

If you're interested, I'll dig it up from my closet
