Wow, Stratum is working awesome. I just got it setup on my measily 5Gh, I use to run at 1.3-=1.6% rejects. Its still early but I have yet to see a single reject. Will update with some better context in a few hours. 

Edit, 2 rejects in 3300 submitted, 0.061%, me like.

There's no withdrawal fee - you can set payout as small as 0.01 BTC. However, sending such small amount is not recommended, because fees will be much higher when you'll try to spend your coins from fragmented wallet. I don't know what's your hashrate, but I'll recommend at least 0.5 BTC as a threshold, to not fragment coins in your wallet.

Is there any difference in income if we chose a small payout threshold rather than large (1 btc as opposed to 10 btc). Is there a per-transaction/withdrawl fee? Trying to make as much btc as possible.

CGminer 2.8.0 with native Stratum support has been released today, but please DO NOT UPDATE. There's serious bug inside, hopefully it will be resolved soon in next release.

Right now I am having problems with the pool. My remotely located miners are working hard (I can check on temp graphs), but some of recent blocks got many times lower fee for the block. Currently, in the round lasting more than two ours, the estimated reward is shown as cca 0.00001 BTC, while normal is about 0.04 BTC. What is going on? (I use stratum).

Huge problem with pool using newest poclbm here. Less then 1% of my shares are now being credited.

Yeah, something looks screwy.  My estimated reward doesn't look right either.  And the reward for block 202383 is WAY low. Although the next one, 202387, looks right.

I would like to add that I have not updated any of my miners in at least a week.  So my problems at least don't have anything to do with the latest cgminer issue...

:EDIT:
It looks like my shares are being counted, but for some reason the scoring seems off as described above.

[slush]

I'm aware of problems, I'll keep you updated.

It probably has nothing with poclbm/stratum.

[hmmmstrange]

Just switched back to pre-statum version and current shares seem to be updating fine but estimate is not. Block 202383 seems to be not calculated correctly.

Getting something strange...

I have a stable total hashrate being a bit more than 4 GH/s and almost stable block payout about 0.10 BTC.
But the 14206th block payout suddenly dropped to ~0.02
Next one was normal so I left it to network problems.

But now I'm observing a zero-like estimated reward whilst all others pool and my rig parameters are stable and fits theirs default ranges.

Please see below the screenshot - split into 2 parts just for not wasting space and being easy to read.

The estimate reward


Workers' stats



I wonder if it can be an issue of scoring algorithm?

Edit: Ok, all are already aware of an issue.
Hope it'll be resolved quickly and easily, as Slush always has logs of everything

Edit 2: Looks like it is fixed

[digital]

Slush is on it peeps...

[digital]

Looks like the estimated reward is back on track...

:EDIT:
and the reward for block 202383 is fixed too.

[hmmmstrange]

dietwice, how do you remove the comments in the extra fields in the worker stats?

Take the Greasemonkey script from the 1st message of this thread.

There was lockup in database, I recalculated rewards and it should be fine now. Now I'm watching logs for some indices what happen.

[slush]

However I strongly recommend to switch back to Stratum, it has nothing with protocol.

[digital]

Thanks for the quick response slush.  One of the reasons why I will never leave your pool...

I got a reward considerably lower than normal (roughly half) on block 202299 after 2 hours+ full steam hashing.  It did not correct in your update, was it supposed to be that low or is possible there was another lockup or event that caused it?

Unfortunately there's no way how to recalculate already confirmed rounds, because these rewards has been already paid out. For now I cannot say if your lower reward for 202299 was the same issue like hour ago, but I'm optimizing some code to prevent current issue to happen next time.
