Latency becomes an issue when you solo mine and you have to make sure it is all set up correctly otherwise you could be working on old work and never solve a block(I hope I said that right).
Could you explain this concept a little more, perhaps with examples for use in BFGMiner? TIA. PS: Please, anyone, feel free to comment on this idea.

Quick question: Can we / should we set cgminer to submit stale shares here? Do they count?
Thanks.

Can't hurt. Eligius doesn't pay for stale shares, but cgminer doesn't detect stale shares correctly anyway.

Thanks for getting back to me. I'll leave no-submit-stale set to false then.

Could you please explain further? Specifically how cgminer doesn't do this correctly. Thanks, James

Could you please explain further? Specifically how cgminer doesn't do this correctly. With getwork (and GBT?), it assumes a work update (longpoll) always makes the previous job(s) stale. Result: cgminer thinks shares are stale that aren't. With stratum, it doesn't act on work updates unless the server tells it previous jobs are now stale. Result: cgminer keeps mining jobs long after they've been replaced, getting close to (and possibly beyond) their expiration time. There is in fact no reliable way for mining software to know when previous jobs are in fact stale. Stratum provides a hint, which works in one case (but not others). GBT also provides hints that cover some other cases (but not the one case stratum hints about). BFGMiner will take these hints into account, but otherwise only assumes a job is stale if the previous-block-hash has changed (ie, the job is considered globally stale to the Bitcoin network).

Hello guys, I'm experiencing a strange issue: my KNC connects to the pool but shortly after (about 1 minute) I got a " Waiting for work to be available from pools." error and the mining stops completely.
Switching pool everything is fine. I tried both the ports 3333 and 3334.
This happened after over a week of full throttle mining, without any problems at all...

Luke, sorry for a n00b question, but seriously....
I haz bfl pr0ductz.
Stratum, GBT or Getwork? (I'm using bfgminer on ubuntu).
(Also, my miner just stops working all the time, the application crashes in terminal, or it just randomly fills the screen with gibberish and I have to close bfgminer and start again- anyone else get this? If I'm out I have to rush home in order to preserve my 1337 hashr4t3)

Stratum for now. I'll get back to finishing GBT up later.

Is it normal for a round to take over 4 hours to do?
I am getting an estimate that it will take 7 hours to do this one round, that seems a bit too high!

It's below average, due to a little bit of "bad" luck. Nothing too far out of normal.

seems like shares are still being accepted though. I assume that the shares are still being counted and payouts are happening as normal?
Or should I switch to another pool until the DDOS stops?
