hey guys, drop some more hashrate to this pool!
Hey fella, my average coins per hour seems to have dropped of a cliff over the last hour, do you know why that is? I did notice some notices in cgminer saying "lost 30 shares due to stratum disconnect" or something like that... Do you know what causes this? Cheers
stratum should not disconnect unless you had some local connectivity interruptions. i can't see anything bad on server graphs. and about lower payouts, that is due to a bad luck, that happens sometimes. you can notice some 3-5-10 minutes blocks in block stats, that's why payouts were slower that time.
Hmmm, well I am hard wired internet wise and not running anything else off it like youtube or such, just normal browsing... I didn't notice the 3-10 minute blocks and when I saw it, it was dipping up and down even though they were all 1-3 minute blocks... I was getting like 5.5 per hour but this went down to 2.5 at its lowest then hovered around 3ish for quite a while... It is still doing it now...
I will reboot my miner and see what that does... Thanks for looking at it anyway, I guess there must be an issue my end afterall...
Edit: rebooted and did an internet speed test... 39 ms ping 7 mb download but only 0.8 mb upload... Is there anything there that could be an issue? That upload looks rather pants...
Edit: Can't say I can see any improvement since the reboot, though I haven't seen that stratum error (though haven't really been looking)... Still I have banked 17 odd in like 4 hours so much much better than before... I'll keep an eye on it anyway... I do realise that there is some varience with these things and that payout will go up and down, it just seemed to stay down even though the blocks were coming in thick and fast... I would expect it to start going back up but it went down some more then up and down, but never back to the 5 odds level I was getting before.
Edit: Seems to be going back up again, might have just been the usual pool varience or due to the orphans maybe? Still a little concerned about the lost shares issue but I will look into that some more my end... Thanks again for looking into it for me...
Edit: Okay I am getting some more stratum disconnects and I am checking internet while that happens, other sites load fine and snappy as usual but yours does not, i am fairly sure it is not my end. Is there a way we can illiminate the problem? Or find out for sure which end it is?
Oh and the miner also reports that the stratum is not responding... Cheers bud
