bit pit - (LP, ESMPPS, 8-decimal payout, SSL, API, 0% fee, Almost 0% Stales!)

[Sangre]

Once I switched to another pool, block was found. Bad carma =(

GRATZ TO ALL

P.S. Interesting who won the bonus

[Sangre]

1bitc0inplz, can you please add some more statistics in profile and round history?

Profile:
- total shares (in all time/since reset)
- stales (per worker in all time/since reset and in current round)

Round history:
- total round's shares
- remaining number of confirmations to confirm last block
- your own award per block
- duration (in hours, i.e. time when block was solved minus round start time)

Just look at the BTC Guild block statistic, which looks pretty good.


Thanks for all you doing!

You know, I was just thinking about a lot of those things. Especially the # of shares in a round. I'm about to head to bed, it's 1:30am local time, but this is definitely going high on the priority list. Can't promise on when all of it will be done, but we'll start getting some of those knocked out right away.

I appreciate the feedback. It's always good to hear thoughts from others.

Finally guys, for a moment I though you were trying to break a record or something...

I just pointed my 4 miners towards you. Lets see how it goes.

[lebuen]

So, who found it? 

[lebuen]

My stale rate is up to about 1% the last hours... just now, I noticed a strange behaviour:



Any idea? But still very satisified so far, still the most stable pool experience I had.

[TheSeven]

Not a single stale during the last 12 hours over here, so it might be your miner's long polling worker dying or something.
Just try restarting your miner and check if it goes away. If it does, please tell us which miner that is so that someone can investigate further and possibly file a bug report with them.

[luffy]

try guiminer 
if this pool goes over 100GH then it would be my best choise:)

[1bitc0inplz]

I am sorry to hear that a couple of you guys are having higher stales. I'd like to work with you to try and figure out why your stale rate is higher than I'd prefer.

Just let me know what your pool username is (if it differs from your forum username), and what mining software your running. Also, it would be nice to know what your ping response time is to pool.bitp.it.

I'm still pretty low myself:

I just noticed your screen shot. Thank you! Those timestamps should help locate the rejection in our logs.

[lebuen]

Ok, some information: I'm in CEST (because of the timestamps). I run Ubuntu 11.04, poclbm (latest version) with phatk (2011-07-11 version by Diapolo), Catalyst 11.6 and APP SDK 2.4

Code:

--- pool.bitp.it ping statistics ---
10 packets transmitted, 10 received, 0% packet loss, time 9011ms
rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 189.161/190.889/192.886/1.448 ms

What I noticed also.

Oh, and still would like to know who got the Bonus 

[lowentropy]

User "winner13" got the block.

One of the things we'll add to the leaderboard and round history are block finders.

[Sangre]

Something wrong with the pool. I can't connect and seems like nobody can.

[Alex AXe]

What happens with the pool? DDoS?

[hugolp]

I had problems as well. Lots of stales one after another and problems connecting.

Now it seems to work fine.

[lowentropy]

What happens with the pool? DDoS?

Yep. We got hit with a lot of traffic. We quickly put some harder limits in place and blocked the offending IPs. The funny part is, we were a day or two away from rolling out additional preventative DDoS protection. So I guess that's still the plan

I apologize to all our miners for the downtime. The pool is up again. If you still have issues, please let us know.

[Boing7898]

I'm going to rape everyone who will DDoS bit pit 
@1bitc0inplz, how many referrals now?

[lowentropy]

If winner13 is out there on the forum, speak up! You haven't set your wallet, and we want to pay you 10 BTC.

I switched back from the most recent version of poclbm to the old version (doesn't have version numbers I guess ), now I'm back to 0% stales. New one must have either a glitch by itself, or problems with your pushpool-implementation.

We've had multiple people have issues with the new poclbm. I'll have to grab a tcpdump and see what's up with it. (As far as pushpool goes though, we don't use it)
