I have been asked how p2pool knows how to pay third party miners who connect to it, and neither the wiki page nr the github page seems to say how that is done. I took a wild ass guess that its done by using a bitcoin address as username but is that correct?
-MarkM-
Yes. When shares are submitted, they get credited to the address specified in the username (or to the default address if the username is not an address). However, if you have your fee set to 100%, then 100% of the shares mined, by everybody, gets credited to the default bitcoin address p2pool is using for yourself. You have to leave your fee set to 0%, for your guest miners to get their full payout of bitcoin they have mined. Set it to 1%, and 1 out of 100 of the shares they find, will be credited to you instead, randomly. -- Smoov

My provider is Comcast, and I believe we only have a DL limit. When I looked at my account & bill settings online, it showed less than the 250GB limit for the past 3 months, and I'm only at 64gb this month. I don't think they UL is even measured for me. ![Tongue](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/tongue.gif) The Comcast/Xfinity limit has been suspended. Under Users & Settings... "Note: enforcement of the 250GB data consumption threshold is currently suspended." I know. ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) The point of me saying that was to show I wasn't anywhere near "high" network utilization like the other member mentioned. My utilization was based on other traffic I generate too... like when I'm streaming audio/video streams... -- Smoov

Is it crazy to see 6.3 gigs upload as a result of P2Pool traffic? BTC and LTC?
I do know I'd been running into my data cap (150GB per month) almost every month in the recent months that I was running p2pool. I'm not entirely sure that p2pool was the cause though. Maybe check on the # of connections you guys are allowing, both in p2pool, and in your daemons, and cut them down more. That should drop the cumulative bandwidth used. -- Smoov ps: You have a data cap? ... Does the data cap only count on traffic that goes outside of our network? Do you get free in-network traffic? NO I have no data cap but they do tend to email me from time to time and say that 168 gigs of download is above the average users hahah... I rebooted machine last night ... It has been up for 20 hours 11 minutes and uploaded 1.6 Gigs of data... recieved 371 Megs... isn't that a bit excessive... I Might shut down my p2pool nodes and see if it is that before I start blaming p2pool... Naelr

If you don't forward the bitcoin port from your router or disable upnp in your bitcoind you'll only be able to make outgoing connections to the network, that will stop bitcoind from using any real upload bandwidth (except when someone in the p2pool network finds a block which is only about 3x/day).

Or just set your max connections in your bitcoin.conf. I set mine to 10 so I can still have the port open without my network getting bogged down.

Hi forrestv, There is a lot of interest in partial confirmations of transactions and p2pool has been proposed as a reasonable solution (see here). Specifically, the p2pool sharechain could guarantee that it will include a given txn in its next block (barring a conflicting transaction sneaking into the blockchain). Could you please comment on the feasibility of implementing such functionality into p2pool? What about the benefit? Does p2pool guaranteeing the inclusion of a txn provide any real benefit over sending your txn to the network and waiting for the majority of nodes to get it? Thanks!

After luck improved I started using p2pool again (version 3.1 on win7x64). My hashrate is 840MH/s.
I ran it 24/7 for 3 weeks.
While it looked very promising at first - I got a constantly ~0.15 BTC per block - my reward started to decrease about 10 days ago. I got less and less for each block. At the moment it's only 0.03 BTC per block.
[EDIT] I just noticed that there were block where I got no reward at all. So it's like this over time: 0.15, 0.10, 0.7, 0.3, 0.0, 0.0 ...
First I thought it's a problem with my miner (cgminer 2.6.4) - so I restarted it.
But I still only get a reward of 0.03 BTC per block.
So p2pool must be the problem here.
Any ideas?

If it was your miner, it'll take 24 hours for your reward to increase. Also, I know my rate varies from .8 to .9, roughly. It seems to cycle, like a sine wave. It's very peculiar, the entire hash rate across bitcoin seems to vary like that. M

With 840 MH/s, you are getting 0.39/day (on 100% luck). Check if your average is close to it. Block reward doesn't matter, your average reward matter.

Does p2pool guaranteeing the inclusion of a txn provide any real benefit over sending your txn to the network and waiting for the majority of nodes to get it? Thanks! Are you talking about something like regular unconfirmed transactions floating around the bitcoin network, waiting for inclusion into the next block? So you would like to have p2pool say "we got this tx, will include it soon!"? I don't see the advantage.. You can already see these [bitcoin] tx in your bitcoind (no idea if possible in a stock bitcoind) or on one of the pages, blockexplorer or the like. android bitcoin wallet shows tx too. Now, seeing that tx there, or having additionally p2pool say to include it, makes no difference: as soon as someone else creates a conflicting tx, like a doublespend, and his tx gets included into the chain first (higher fees, quicker propagation, luck, he mined the next block himself), your original tx is down the toilet anyway. p2pool is relatively small, so even if p2pool says "yep, will include your tx" as well as "..and we'll drop any future conflicting tx", it would only work if no other pool/miner finds the next block first and includes the unwanted conflicting tx. So, what is your aim? Ente

I didn't get any reward on the last few blocks. cgminer was running. p2pool was running.
