BUT, observed that when the round is over and a new started -  for about the first 5-10 minutes, shows the performance drop to 4000-4500 Gh/s and later, after the period - shows again about 5200-5400.

"* The calculation is based on the number of shares so far, which may not be accurate for slow workers."

I should add: "it is inaccurate on the beginning of the round also for fast workers".

1) if i split my worker to 10 workers - each 500Mh/s, will it make the accepted shares more stable ? 2) what will happened in the April when i will have worker 50 Gh/s ? should i think to split it to 100 workers each 500 Mh/s ?

which speed is optimal for the pool now ?

No, because your share submission rate will be still the same.

no

More the better :-).

ACtually, you don't need to care about hashrate *approximation* provided by the pool. It doesn't affect your income, it's just fancy feature, which is inaccurate by design.

OK, many thanks... BTW, i read https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1976.msg50002#msg50002 before asking, but i don't undestand fully... as you can see, my worker connected 24/7...

I'm sorry for short downtime of pool in recent 10 minutes. It was because of failed update, now is pool fully operating again.

Hey my Pool-Friends!

I have a problem.
Ive got 22 Miners worers which are mining wirg bfgminer 2.9.1.
The have all the same config except the user (this is bitdaniel.01 till bitdaniel.21).

The first 20 Miners connect to the pool correctly with stratum, the last two does not!

Sometimes the last 10 dont connect via Stratum.

Address is stratum+tcp://stratum.bitcoin.cz:3333

Regards
Daniel

There's firewall rule to not allow more than 20 connections from one subnet. Please install mining proxy (http://mining.bitcoin.cz/mining-proxy-howto), it will take 5 minutes and you can add as many machines to your mining operation as you want.

Hey, so I recently switched over to Stratum mining. My rejects have gone down from 1% to 0.1% but it seems NMC mining is broken. Before I'd get ~0.02 NMC almost every round (no reward only once every 10-20 rounds); now, half of the rounds give me "none" NMC. Any ideas? Or is it just a crazy string of coincidences?

It is just coincidence. As Stratum miner, you still collects namecoins as on getwork. Just the pool namecoin hashrate is going down with higher % of stratum miners, because stratum backend doesn't have merged mining.

Oh that's disappointing Sad. So as a miner who also wants to support & collect namecoins I need to switch to another pool? Is there any chance Stratum can support merged mining?

Maybe I'll implement merged mining again, but not in any near future. AFAIK there's no Stratum powered pool which do NMC merged mining.

I'm pretty sure bitminter does.

I mine at Kano's Pool because it pays the best and is completely transparent!  Come join me!

Thank you Slush.
But i think the mining proxy will connect to your pool with one worker account then, dont it?
If so thats bad, because i want to use me 22 units seperate because of statistics for every units.
Cant you just raise the allowed connections to 25? (-;

No, it proxies usernames as well.

There's really no reason, 20+ workers is already pretty big operation and using Stratum proxy is logical step. It optimizes network usage.

I recenty switched from api.bitcoin.cz:8332 to stratum.bitcoin.cz:3333 using cgminer
and noticed that namecoin reward dropped to "none". Coincidence?

77% of pool hashrate are already over stratum, which means that only 23% of miners are mining for NMC. That means namecoin reward are going to be lower and loweer...

so wouldn't it be better (from the miner's point of view) to stay on getwork rather than switching to stratum? NMC is maybe not much value, but probably more than tx fees, isn't it?

Tx fees have much higher value than collected namecoins. I don't think there's any motivation to stay on getwork. I'm also going to switch down getwork interface in few months, because stratum infrastructure is already pretty mature and there's no technical reason to keep getwork alive.

for all of you that think namecoins are worthless, i would love to have them, use   NATBojEf4QC5kgyYc2jNvJ8Sq484UpqgYB  as your deposit address in the pool website.  No sense in them going to waste.

77%?!  And here I am getting happy when users on Stratum have speed exceeding 50% (which only happens once in a blue moon).

LOL, I'm being pretty aggressive in Stratum propagation. Getwork users have pretty annoying message on website profile, thankfully lot of them really update after they noticed it.

I'm not against Namecoin, I just see the project dead, there's no development in last year, documentation is non-existing, merged mining patches obsolete (most recent official toolchain is for bitcoin 0.3.24!).

In these days I'm migrating pool to new servers and I'll drop old pool core completely (I won't install it to new servers at all), so NMC will be completely disabled in few days. But if everything will run smoothly, I'll dig into merged mining and if there won't be any real issue, I'll try to set up NMC mining again.
