[4+ EH] Slush Pool (slushpool.com); Overt AsicBoost; World First Mining Pool

For me pool works without any problems for few hours already. How about you?

Fine and dandy since that little down time, I'm a happy camper.

Thank you Slush. Like butter now.

Today I extended existing profile json API (https://mining.bitcoin.cz/accounts/profile/json/<token>) with worker stats. Now you can monitor your workers in easy way: timestamp of their last submitted shares (unix timestamp in UTC), approx. hashrate (unfortunately for current round only, so it's not very exact for short rounds or slow workers) and if they are alive (currently fixed 3600 second threshold, will be possible to customize it soon).

I also see that some people are polling json api very frequently (some guys even many times per second!). Because data in json calls are cached for 60 seconds, you're doing 60x more requests than necessary . Please change your polling interval to something sane, otherwise I'll have to solve it somehow ]:->.

Thanks slush for the dedication. I believe it is most appreciated by members of your pool.

[pokermon919]

I definitely do. Great job man!

Looking at the stats page I do not understand what all the stats mean.

Can someone explain these...

Current server load (60 sec average):
Total score of current round:
Shares contributed in current round:
Approx. cluster performance (30 min average):

thanks!

This is great! Thankyou

Whooops! Ill be sure to fix that, sorry!

Current server load (60 sec average):
 - how mant getWorks the server is sending per second. It is a total of all getWorks sent to all miners. Each solved getwork (your GPU found a nonce) is a share.

Total score of current round:
 - it is a sum of how many getWorks were solved in this round (submitted shares), each multiplied by current scoring factor = exp(t/300). Where t is time in seconds.

Shares contributed in current round:
 - a total of all sumbitted shares, without the scoring factor

Approx. cluster performance (30 min average):
 - a combined pool speed of all workers together.


To connect to json API and check your stats you need a token, which you take from here:

http://mining.bitcoin.cz/accounts/token-manage/

the link to this page is on top of your profile page.

Forgive my ignorance if this is a dumb question but shouldn't the account login and various pages under that section be run over https?

If you use GUIminer then just copy that token, press 'refresh balance' then paste it.

[SchizophrenicX]

what's the token for. Sorry I've been focusing on building rigs for awhile. still doesn't know much about pools. (in fact I've ever only been registered to this pool and tycho's)

[max in montreal]

I am only on this pool, but i am not able to figure out where i can see my stats easily....well i cannot see my stats at all. What i am specifically looking for is how much hash rate my systems are getting.

[slush]

On "token manage" page is link to json statistics, which can be used in other tools.

Can you guys confirm that those json stats are working for you? I used same json format as deepbit, but I don't know which tools are you using, so I want to know that everything is going well...

to see hashrate you can use a third party GreaseMonkey script: http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/98553 on your profile page http://mining.bitcoin.cz/accounts/profile/

Or you can use that token exactly as the instructions are provided on http://mining.bitcoin.cz/accounts/token-manage/ this will give you a short json data, which will contain hashrate also.

but beware! this hashrate is not precise! A better measurement of your speed is your daily reward on http://mining.bitcoin.cz/stats/graphs/ - assuming that you mine 24/7, then it should be more or less equal to what you can get from bitcoin calculator and your expected hashrate.

what tools are we talking about? Im using miner stats, but there is some info missing.

And when i look at the page there are no graphs, i see where the graphs should be but nothing is there, other than the title of the graphs that should be there...

the json stats seem to have all info, i just thought everything would be easier seeing on the website than getting a tool. Are there any tools you reccomend?

There is everything on profile page, except worker hashrate. That's hidden because it is not very exact and people still asked me why it shows wrong numbers (although there was explanation directly on profile page). So I decided to hide that and offer this number just thru greasemonkey script and similar tools, which expect some better understanding of things...

[pokermon919]

How come stats don't show connected workers anymore slush?

[max in montreal]

this is what i see
