Whats with our super crappy luck the past 5 days?  Does it have some thing to do with Stratum support in V10 and v11 released 5 days ago?

PS

I was wondering the same.  A bit too coincidental.  According to my local graph, 92% are on v11, the rest are on v9.  Something up with v11, or is the mix of v9/v11 causing problems?

M

I don't believe it is coincidental - I think it's definitely related to the new releases, the stratum code is buggy for sure. I reluctantly pulled my rigs off of p2pool a couple of days ago due to this, which hurt as I completely love the p2p ethos with this pool, but at the moment it's just not working as it should be. Been running on Ozcoin (stratum enabled) for two days with zero problems & zero rejects, this is how it should be with stratum enabled I believe.

I want to get back on to p2pool, but until the new code is fixed/stable it's just not worth it I'm afraid.

Peace.

PatMan,

you can still use p2pool without stratum adding --fix-protocol to cgminer running command line.

About memory leaking, this is a ubuntu 64bit after a little more than 48 hours of running latest p2pool

Code:
PID USER      PR  NI  VIRT  RES  SHR S %CPU %MEM    TIME+  COMMAND
5409 user      20   0 1371m 1.2g 3552 S  8.3 30.9 168:18.05 python   

and I have 7 peers with 4 incoming ones.

Yes, I did that as soon as it started when the new releases came out (see previous posts), but it seemed to defy the while idea for me. If stratum is available then why not use it? Given the choice between 1) getwork on my favorite pool with high DOA/rejects & low payout, 2) stratum on my favorite pool with medium DOA/rejects & low payout, or 3) stratum on a different pool with zero DOA/rejects & good payout - well, it's a no brainer TBH. Don't get me wrong, I'm not just in this for the payouts, but I also can't afford to spend money on wasted electricity for nothing.

I just hope that the fix comes soon, because with stratum enabled and working properly on p2pool it will simply blow the other pools away in my opinion. I'm just a small time GPU miner and still finding my way around the scene, but the numbers and graphs don't lie. I don't know nearly enough about bitcoin and it's inner workings yet, but I can do Math & read a graph.

Peace.

There do seem to be issues with v11 stratum + latest cgminer.

All shares are logging errors like "submitted share with hash > target" using stratum and the diffs running are mostly 1 resulting in a ton of share submissions. Using --fix-protocol in cgminer and forcing getwork seems to work as usual, with much higher diffs being given by p2pool.

I left the options that didn't leak any authentication info, I use merged mining on namecoin. It uses more RAM than it used to (some earlier version didn't need much more than 300M).

I'm merge mining namecoin with 0981bdfb4e3fc266463be104c8e5441720173cb8 on Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS 64-bit with python 2.7.3.  However, I'm not actively mining on my node.

Code:
Node uptime: 2.771 days Peers: 6 out, 21 in

  PID USER      PR  NI  VIRT  RES  SHR S %CPU %MEM    TIME+  COMMAND

I asked this on IRC, but didn't get much response.

I just have a small GPU rig and so I stopped mining on p2pool.  What benefits are there to p2pool if I keep my node online?  It has relatively fast hard drives and very fast and stable internet.  I'm guessing it would make a DOS attack against p2pool harder.  Would one node that isn't mining make a difference in an attack?  It might also help with block progation and could reduce orphans.  Any way to quantify how much?

Dear TRC users, pls upgrade your Terracoin client and p2pool. There is at least 3 nodes that are messing in TRC pool:
Code:
88.69.122.87
94.219.158.58
188.97.132.96
I have blocked this IPs because of huge wasted traffic (peers are asking for shares over and over again).

Maybe forrestv can do a fork? So users with version below specific one will be forked to smaller, separated p2pool./

along these lines, I've been trying to optimize my own peer list by seeing which ones send dupe transactions, which ones never are the 'first' to send me a new share, etc.  i guess it isn't 'fair' to ppl on bad connections, but..  i've been able to up my max blocksize to 100,000 and now at 51 shares w/ 1 orphan and 1 dead.  you can expect around 3-5% just on sheer chance, really.

The leak (or at least one leak) is fixed in commit 348aba84c6. Share objects previously held a reference to the peer object the share was received from. This kept the peer object in memory for as long as the share was, even if the connection to the peer was lost. Continually losing connections and reconnecting to peers could cause these peer objects to build up in memory, potentially leaking memory quickly since the peer objects contain an incoming message buffer.

Forrestv,

My memory usage went up for P2pool on the latest git version.

Currently at 824M Resident and 975 Virtual.

I would have told you in IRC but you were disconnected.
