1  Bitcoin / Pools / Re: Please test: New Experimental Pool "Eligius" on: May 21, 2011, 04:49:06 AM
Restarted the US server... apparently my watchdog didn't trigger last night Sad
I might need to setup a testnet pool to do some pushpool debugging or something

1MX12iNFncGnuxja4xpwSF66Zx6xcA5hmY is getting a lot of work-not-in-log. Could you try regular poclbm from git and let me know if that has better results? Perhaps also try eu.mining.eligius.st?

That appears to fix it.  It appears that poclbm is getting a significantly higher accept rate.  I'll let it run all night and let you know how it goes.  Thanks!

I too have had quite a low efficiency when mining on this pool.

I've got a variety of systems contributing, some of them are Windows and some of them are OSX. It seems that all of the OSX systems have horrid efficiency, while all of the Windows ones are working great.

The OSX systems are running poclbm-mod.py. Here is what I see:

Another OSX system sees this:

I've never seen efficiency higher than 5% so far.
In all OSX examples I am using the following command line to launch the miners:
python poclbm-mod.py --user=1PC5hWLgpmLZie7Mqvt2GiU5zrSQkzWVJP --pass=blahblah -o pool.bitcoin.dashjr.org -p 8337 -d 0

Are the above symptoms a result of a mistake on my part? Or is it something beyond my control?
For reference my bitcoin address is 1PC5hWLgpmLZie7Mqvt2GiU5zrSQkzWVJP.

Thanks for any help,

--TE

I'm running Windows 7 with a Quadro FX 3700M Video card (in a M6400 Dell Laptop), so my invalid or stale blocks aren't due to Linux or OSX...

I'm getting a lot of stale shares.  Is this normal for Eligius?  Are rejected blocks bad?
This suggests a problem on your miner. What address?


I don't know what you mean by "what address".  If you mean my receiving address, it's: 1MX12iNFncGnuxja4xpwSF66Zx6xcA5hmY

I'm located in Michigan, USA.  My internet is pretty stable and good there.  There were no known problems last night.

I'm using phoenix with the following settings:
phoenix -u http://<myuser>:<mypass>@deepbit.net:8332/ -k poclbm DEVICE=0 BFI_INT AGGRESSION=5 WORKSIZE=128
phoenix -u http://1MX12iNFncGnuxja4xpwSF66Zx6xcA5hmY:@pool.bitcoin.dashjr.org:8337/ -k poclbm DEVICE=0 BFI_INT AGGRESSION=5 WORKSIZE=128

I crunched last night and got about 22 accepted and 115 rejected.  On deepbit, I've got 12 accepted, 0 rejected.

I'd really like to support one of the smaller pools, but having a reject rate of 5/1 sounds really bad (is it?).  I've nearly got the same number of accepted blocks in 1 hour from deepbit that I had all last night from Eligius.

Any ideas on how to solve this?  Do I even need to solve this?
