Davinci,

I know you are busy, but

Just to let you know, smtg in your database is hanging

I had all but 2 of my miners disconnect with an rpc-stream error

And the statistics page hasn't updated for quite some time, even though the total amount of shares is correct and my total shares on the Dashboard also seems right

You might want to take a look

Well I just lost a lot of work

The web site is down because I deleted the hole directory when I tried to sync it with my windows folder it deleted all the files remotely and I had no back up.  

got it mostly up and running but lost a lot of work! 

Ah well I was trying to be more productive than working in terminal with vi and grep and the rest was very slow going.   So I got WinSCP and syncted up folders to work in windows and ending up deleting my remote copy.

Well with a real editor in windows I can quickly get it back wish me luck.

Davinci,

I appreciate where you're going with this...

Sorry 'bout your recent run of bad luck, but keep in mind what Ford said:

"I thank god for my customers, because they keep buying my cars, even though I never finish building them..."

There are a lot of quirks to work out, unforseen things occur (but you do need to be mindful of the 'seeable' things, ie. backups, off-line testing, regression testing, etc).  Don't loose the faith.

If you'll send me the information about your namecoin mining operation, and the gui-miner that you've put together, I'll look at it for you, and attach one or several of my rigs... I've a 30 Mhash laptop (both CPU/GPU) that I'll dedicate to connecting to/testing your namecoin pit today (once you send me the info), and if that works rather stable-y, I'll consider moving my 325 Mhash GPU over.  Once they're off back-order, I should have 2 x HD6990's coming in as well. Again, depending on how this initially goes...

I missed the first couple years of bitcoins... just got into them in June/July - but I love to tinker with it.  Your quest is truly what motivates me, which is the 'being on the ground floor' of something.  I'm not in bitcoins as much for the money, as I am for the 'learning and exploring alternative currencies' portion of it. 

If you've written anything on your thoughts/opinions on the whole fiat currency, I'd be interested in that as well.

I know you're going to be busy with the recent issues/upgrades.   When you get some time, shoot me the information and/or links and I'll point some of my computing power your way:

I have had a boat load of bad luck in the last 24 hrs.  I can see why many have thrown in the the towel, well I'm not quitting even if I get hacked and all the data is lost since the last backup, I will not stop I will not give up!  I will keep doing keep work keep plugging until my luck changes and those that where with me while I was down on my luck will understand the meaning of rising tide lifts all boats.

With that I would like to thank all of my current supports for sticking it out even when our luck with finding blocks have dropped.

Thanks the code for checking if it was BTC address has been lost need to replace it.

[CRYPT]

Ok,

So should I change it?  I got ready to, when I realized that it actually ASKs for a bitcoin address, not a namecoin address, and some of your previous posts mention paying out in BTC, which, for right now, is fine with me.  Let me know if you want me to put in a NMC address, or leave it as BTC.

Perhaps you should put that on the page as well; both an NMC address, and a BTC address, with like a checkbox for whichever the miners want to be paid.  Especially with the merge coming up.

Also, did you change/remove the 'I'm mining at' bar/code?  I just tried to put it in, and either I'm not a high enough member yet to display images, or the code/link is broken.

Thanks,

Please change it to NMC address as someone has already lost namecoins because it went to the invalid NMC address and it's lost forever.

Just to keep people informed had completed speeding up the web site when I lost all of my work.
Here is what the connection to the DB from the web server box looks like...

SSL Cipher: DHE-RSA-AES256-SHA

As You can see there is 40K of slow queries since I have had MySql Up for the past 3 days.  Actually most of the slow queries came from the last 36 hours since I have not been able to replace the code I lost yet.

Because MySQL is a single threaded system try not to hammer the system with queries until I get it fixed.

Not sure how much I will be able to get done today as my wife and I are packing to move but I will try to make a small fix to reduce that number.

You can check my progress here...
http://nmcbit.com/db.php

If the slow queries and drop and the average stays the same over time you know I have done something to improve it.

Crypt,

I have been having that on and off for the better part of the weekend.

Sometimes 6 out of 9 of my miners. Usually a restart of the miner solved the problem for a while.

Funny thing is it were not always the same miners, so I figured it was not the config on my end.

It did stop the miners from going to my backup-pool, that was annoying.

Everything seems to be fine right now !

Thanks Dutch,

I was looking at the Stats --- that looks disturbing   Flatlined, but I can't tell really what the X & Y axis' are portraying, it just looks 'bad' for productivity...

Davinci,

I'm also noticing that my 'average'  hashrate seems to be 200 Mhash or less, but I have (through observing on my end):

1 x rig running 1 miner (CRYPT.NMC) @ 20 - 25 Mhash pretty constant...
1 x rig running 1 miner (CRYPT.RIG2) @ 277 - 293 Mhash pretty consistantly...

My worker rates on the Dashboard are showing up as:
CRYPT.NMC   ~ 15 - 18 Mhash
CRYPT.RIG2  ~ 150 Mhash

Any idea why?  Could the following be the reason for that issue?  If I can/need to do something on my end, or if someone knows of any 'flag's I could put it to mitigate this, I'd appreciate it.  Right now I'm running OpenCL  on 1 HD68xx with -v -w128 -f0.

This is a c/p from my second rig that doesn't get 'stopped' by the long poll; but this appears quite frequently:
