bitHopper: Python Pool Hopper Proxy

[Clipse]

lol btcserv claims to have more hash than the entire network

Network Speed:   13.87 THash/s

anyone else hate going to the bitminers union website? sloooooooooooow

BTCPool24 took down their notice of stats and prop payment problems and yet i still have no coin from them.

signed up new user on bitclockers.. couldnt get a new IP as my isp is a jerk like that and wont give me a new one no matter how often i release and renew... tried all the pools.. still having issues.

I wonder if poclbm would be better than phoenix or perhaps it is guiminer.


anyone use poclbm and having problems? anyone not using guiminer and having problems?

BTCserv lists the bitcoin network speed on the right, the poolspeed is on the top.

poclbm,phoenix,diablo,cgminer, all give bitclockers issues without using bithopper even.

Regarding btcpool24, they didnt finish a 2nd block it was the huge shares from the previous round that screwed up the json and "thought" it had 2 blocks solved, he fixed this and shares also got allocated correctly now. The prop payout is still normal prop, its not changing as some have mentioned in this thread.

That's been red in my stats page for hours now

I use AOCLBF and still have the issues.  I've given up on them in favour of my poor cards

[hawks5999]

They have been doing this for some time (see bclc thread).
Round are announced 0-3600 seconds after completion. This means you will pretty much always miss out on sub 100k rounds, but still have time to get in before the 43.5% mark on longer rounds.
Despite this I still see decent profits on bclc

for me bclc has been more efficient than mtred and polmine.
seeing an average of 0.00005054 from bclc over 72 blocks.

... this new feature keeps me ocupied

[flower1024]

i just made a poclbm fork that gets its server list from an bitHopper address.
it checks every three seconds for the current pool and switches if neccesary

if you want to try it out:
https://github.com/flower1024/poclbm

yout bitHopper url (use DATA instead of STATS - as this is where the json is, atm you must supply a username and a password):
http://chaos:x@localhost:8337/data

a working command line looks like this:
python -O poclbm.py http://chaos:x@localhost:8337/data --no-server-failbacks -d 1 -v -w64 -f10

04/08/2011 23:49:06, reading serverlist from bitHopper http://localhost:8337/data

bitclockers 04/08/2011 23:49:17, LP connected to bitclockers

if this fork works and brings any use i might add:
 - backup server support (select one of bitHoppers backup pools)
 - submit share and reject information to bitHopper to keep their stats working

I hate to ask more of your time but could you add this feature to the phatk2 poclbm fork located here, https://github.com/progranism/poclbm

Unless you allready added phatk2 and phatk2_1 support to this fork?

[MaGNeT]

I finaly got btcworld.de working...

It turned out it made my workername "MaGNeT.1" lowercase and I didn't notice that... Logged in 10 times to verify settings, compare pools.cfg, etc and didn't see it  

17 pools ready to hop, 2 for backup

[ed64]

I have btcmp.com working, but it's been flaky the last few days (the pool itself). If it stabilizes, I'll release my patch (I didn't push it to github yet).

FYI i've patched up AltSliceScheduler, should be stable and a little more aggressive in switching pools when threshold is met (rather than finishing it's slice). Also the slices are truly proportional now.

atm its just a quick hack.
lets see if it brings any good.

if so i am willing to put more time on it

lets wait until saturday, until then i know if i would like to use further or not.
i used the fastlongpoll branch from the p2pool guy - as this works best for me.

(btw: i did not change that much - only Transport.py. i am pretty sure its not that hard to integrate it in another fork)

FIXED: btw i have a bug that it still trying to get back to its primary... i'll fix that

[joulesbeef]

if you use phatk 2.0or 2.1 double check your rejects. It lead to a great increase on my end and I'm not the only one... (especially on bitclockers.. go figure)

I have no problems with the new diablo 8-04 but i had to find bfipatcher.py not sure why.


I thought we disabled btcword.de for a different reason besides it didnt work? werent they doing the delayed stats thing?

There seems to be issue with phatk2_1 release, the phatk2 poclbm patch on the poclbm fork I posted works great, the fastest version of all the miners for me on my 5850's

Getting quite a few of these errors in your version Ed, ill see if c00w's bithopper doing the same.
Strange part is it doesnt actually seem to matter, it still continues at the pool.

Mt Red now offers both prop with a 2% fee and pps with a 7% fee.  You can change your reward method in your settings page.

digbtc.net image.

It would be great if he actually reset the block shares.

[flower1024]

for me this poclbm patch solved the bitclockers problem completly.
it has been a long time since i have seen my real hashrate on their site

atm this patch produces some rejects when switching pools (around 4).

until saturday i'll add the following:
 - try out poclbm mentioned by clipse
 - close old connection, clear work queue and reconnect lp on switch
 - (maybe) interface with bithopper for submitting share/rejects and user stats

any other ideas?

Sounds like a plan, I think supporting phatk2/phatk2_1 and solving bitclockers issue aswell as fixing the rejects(I also noticed them) at same time is a definite win for the good guys

was thinking of using mtred pps as backup too, but 7% is steep.

Now that is some Flower Power! Good approach.  Can't wait to see this in the wild.
