.....
I think the Eligius one has lower variance?
.....
AFAIK, no one has derived the variance for average reward per valid share submitted per period of time for Eligius' reward method. In infinite time all shares should be paid, but if you confine rewards to a time period there is significant variance in received rewards.

I have 31gh/s asic. Can I mining on p2pool or this too small speed?

The smallest miners on the pool have around 5-10GH/s. I think 30GH/s would give you more than one share a day, so variance wouldn't be that bad. The pool itself finds a share twice a day, and you get 3 payments per share on average.

Mine is currently running like this: Local: 31942MH/s in last 10.0 minutes Local dead on arrival: ~3.5% (2-6%) Expected time to share: 1.1 days I've just today switched back to p2pool from a while balanced between BTC Guild and Slush, so will see how it settles down.

If anyone can put this up on the front page, I'm sure it'll help others out that are using Bitfury / Megabigpower rigs: I have tested this out on V1, V2 and V3 M-boards and images! HOW TO SET UP P2POOL 1) Set up the programs as listed on the front page. 2) SSH into your unit 3) type echo -n username:password | base64 4) Copy the code. 5) BACK UP /opt/bitfury/chainminer/jobconnect.cpp, then type sudo nano /opt/bitfury/chainminer/jobconnect.cpp 6) Change this line: hosts_t hosts[]={ {"Basic dHl0dXMucGkyOnB1YmxpY3Bhc3M="," http://127.0.0.1:8332/" To this: hosts_t hosts[]={ {"Basic PUTINYOURCODEYOUCOPIEDINSTEP4"," http://YOURP2PLANADDRESS:9332/" Ctrl + O to save YES Ctrl + X to exit 7) cd into /opt/bitfury/chainminer ![Cool](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cool.gif) type make 9) reboot rPi Thats it. You won't be able to use your pool GUI on the webpage, but you will see the numbers kick in.

Has anyone had experience running an Antminer on P2Pool. It's got a built in Gui I think very similar to Avalons. Currently I only know how to set up stratum based servers. Would I need to SSH and change the settings to mine P2P? Thanks!

p2pool is stratum based. in antMiner simple put settings of your node or one of public node I advise to use http://elizium.name

Can someone help me with some guidance regarding the setup and workings of p2pool?
I don't want to spam this thread with basic questions so I would highly appreciate if someone would contact me via pm.
cheers

I tried it with a couple of remote nodes (still tinkering with hardware to set up my own local node) but it did not work very well. I had around 50% or more reject rate. This was not with the latest firmware though.

Antminers are not responding to LP/work restart, don't bother to setup p2pool for them, they are just not compatible and you will get 30% or more Rejected work.

Hmm...I've had mine running on p2pool.org for a couple of days now, and so far the earnings are outperforming BTC Guild. What you describe sounds like the same problem with BFL FPGA hardware and p2pool. Rejected work is running roughly in the mid-20s overall, with the Antminer S1 having the lowest rate of rejects and a Klondike K16 having the highest (I also have a Bitfury rig with two H-cards and a couple of BFL Jalapeños). One thing I noticed with p2pool.org's stats: http://p2pool.org:9332/static/graphs.html?DayIf you scan down to the getblocktemplate latency chart, it's running about 1 second. The last time I tried running a p2pool node, I was seeing similar (or higher) numbers. It also looks like it's chewing through a ton of RAM. If I were to take a stab at running a p2pool node again, what would be most important to maximizing performance? I'm thinking an SSD and lots of RAM, but how much? It's looking like even 8 GB may become marginal (at best) before too long. How critical is CPU speed? Would one of the cast-off Pentium 4s or Athlon 64s gathering dust in my closet be sufficient, should I use one of those to free up the Core 2 Duo E8400 in one of my OpenELEC boxes (where most of the heavy lifting is done by the GPU anyway), or should I go for something faster still? (For my stats on this node, search for "1mine.") Edit: If it makes a difference, my Antminer is a newer model, possibly with newer firmware. The controller board version is 1.2 (dated 4 Dec 13) and the miner board version is 1.4 (dated 1 Dec 13); each miner board has a 6-pin PCI Express power connector in addition to the screw terminals. It arrived here from the manufacturer on 8 Jan 14.

Wow, wouldn't that cause inefficiency on "normal" pools too? I realise that p2pool would be worse due to the faster block rate, but even with a 10 minute block, no LP support would reduce efficiency.

36hours no block .. can someone reboot the server please? < WINK >
EDIT: does p2pool abandon current block after the retarget? Should be like Solo since it is probably over the current diff target ?

Just to know, I am wondering why I can't attach stratum-proxy to my p2pool node. I saw about 100 pages back a conversation about some error with stratum-proxy, did anyone ever resolve that?
