Since there are now 4 pool servers and the performance of each server will differ for every person, there are some stats in cgminer v2.4.3 that can help you decide which ozcoin pool to use as your main pool
java API stats
reports the pool getwork performance. e.g. like:
[STATS2] => ( [STATS] => 2 [ID] => POOL0 [Elapsed] => 456605 [Calls] => 129391 [Wait] => 114.686699 [Max] => 41.213763 [Min] => 0.000003 [Pool Calls] => 23844 [Pool Attempts] => 23852 [Pool Wait] => 12037.374767 [Pool Max] => 19.118501 [Pool Min] => 0.456760 )
This shows that I network called the pool 'getwork' 23844 times successfully and waited a total of 12037.374767 seconds Thus an average of 0.50... seconds for the pool to reply to the getwork requests My Pool Max is high coz I do a network reset each night at midnight (but the Pool Min also shows it's never faster than 0.456760s for me)
My numbers are good since you can also see above what the devices are doing waiting on the device level getworks: 129391 work requests taking a total of 114.686699s so on average 0.000089s
Edit: so if you load-balance all 4 servers for a few hours you can use these stats to help decide

For those intertested us.ozco.in runs close to a Terahash or over most of the time us2.ozco.in is usually under 50Ghash eu.ozco.in runs at 200-300Ghash eu2.ozco.in runs at under 50Ghash If the node you are on is giving slow longpolls consider using a less loaded node ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Any chance to have that information on the website or included into the API? Would be a neat information for my miners startscript. BTW, is there any miner out there supporting the "X-Switch-To" extension ( https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Getwork#switchto )?

Stats and stuff. mainly because we spend most of our time working on the backend/mining stuff, thought things were going nice until this recent txn spam made us look at it again :/

Though I'd put this here for anyone that doesnt browse around ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) It looks like Ozcoin is processing all transactions, Bitparking is passing along no transactions, and Deepbit has a transaction fee threshold that prunes lower fee and/or free transactions from their blocks.
The question then, is, does this make a difference to them? Are deepbit (and to a lesser extent bitparking) keeping a low orphan rate or is this barking up the wrong tree? I still get the feeling we're missing the underlying cause for this since it predates the abrupt rise in the number of transactions. went and dug through the DB We have had 12 orphans since we went DGM 30/12/2011 2 were our fault when we didnt get the BIP16 updates right so 10 orphans for over 6.5 months The last 2 were 15th and 8th of this month, whilst either or both of these may be attributed to current issues, we are not showing an unusually high orphan rate. We spent quite some time over the last 24hours looking to see what we could do poolside to help the longpolls, stales and big block issues. We came to the conclusion that apart from optimising some logging and databases some more to reduce load there isnt really much we can do, this is a network issue and the pools will need help from the devs to resolve. Ozcoin will continue to accept all standard transactions into our blocks, we do not see any advantage to restricting the number of transactions in our blocks. On a side note, value of txns included with blocks has gone from 0.0x to 0.x with a lot around 0.3 and we had one block with more than 1BTC in txn fees. Graeme

vv01f yep, there are a few broken links and still no FAQ. Every time we get close to the frontend tidying up something happens to bring us back to the backend/mining software. latest is another security vulnerability in Bitcoind :/ thanks for the feedback, it is on the todo list ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Gladamas cheers and welcome ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

there is a ToDo, cool - that'd be another nice page users could be interested and could stop asking same questions / making requests ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) (of course without security-issues if disclosures is healthier) I appreciate your pool working now for some days (since I signed up) without any problem, hadn't that in a while with several other pools ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) and your service also is quite nice, beside you care about the network not only your benefits.

Updating our Bitcoinds over the next few hours to 0.6.3rc1
There will be a brief downtime on each mining node.
This should help block propagation and stale shares.

Not sure about stales as I currently just have it set as a backup.

All mining nodes bitcoinds have been updated. Thanks to wknight
I had to sleep, overslept and woke up to 2 reports of people having login issues resulting in a pink screen on Ozcoins homepage. Just got another. We are looking into it now.
