1  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Pools (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] The First Litecoin PPS Pool (litecoinpool.org) on: January 24, 2014, 08:42:42 AM
One more question plz.
The pool now implement VAR DIFF automatically. While can one fix a DIFF for each of his worker, manually and seperately?(Like some BTC pools I've mined with.)
Since I got a new problem:  Due to unstable network, some share lost ->  DIFF goes lower -> network load heavier --> more share lost --> DIFF even lower.
I think for some guys with a unstable network(like me), income variability is not so important as network load.
Usually when people ask for the ability to manually set share difficulty it's because they don't understand the underlying math, and naively think it's intrinsically better to have a low or high share difficulty.
I think this is the first time I hear a semi-valid justification for such a feature. However, if your network is that unstable, then you probably have much more serious problems (such as the amount of time you spend hashing stale data) than those caused by an unsuitably low share difficulty.


-------------
Actually, No.
The problem arises from flow control of my network proxy --- too many share submissions result in proxy temporarily refusing.

I'm also mining in a higher DIFF pool(fixed, but higher, 64 v.s. 2 of litecoinpool.org), stale rate under 3%. (long pool too)

what is the average stale rate for you guys?  my gpus (7950s') are all averaging around 1.2-1.3% stale rate and was wondering if it is a little high? 

Network not behind proxy: 0.5% or lower.(Stratum)
Network behind proxy: 30% or so. (long poll)

Hi, Pooler, thanks for ur pool! It's wonderful. I played around from one year.

May I ask whether there is a port for long poll?
Because, my network banned stratum now.
Or if there is some relay methods?

I just can't connect stratum under current condition of my network.

The old getwork protocol, now deprecated, is still accessible at litecoinpool.org on port 9332. Be advised, however, that you will get a much higher stale rate if using getwork instead of Stratum.
Depending on how the ban is implemented, it may be possible to circumvent it by connecting through a SOCKS proxy located outside your network.

Great, It worked! Thank you.
