Back in mining Smiley

HDD was burning hot when i closed my computer and was having lot's of difficulties to boot. It was under warranty and i got replacement disk.

Luckily i'm over paranoid with backups and didn't lose any important info and files Smiley I think that burning hot HDD caused my GPU fan to near max out as inside case was reallyreally hot Shocked

OK, back to topic.

Could someone explain proportional/pay per share in a way that i understand (think i'm stupid)?


EDIT:
@[Tycho]: could you set forum link attribute to open in new window/tab?

Here you go ...

I just want to make sure i've understood the difference, please ...
Proportional: Reward is based on finding a block. (I think i'm wrong here)
Pay-per-Share: Reward is based on the number of shares submitted, and the price specified on the homepage per share.
Yes, you are right.
Proportional: you get your part of the block when it's found. If you submitted 10000 shares and the block took 20000 to solve, you get half of all the reward.
Pay-per-Share: you get that fixed price for every share instantly, even if block is not found yet.

This does need to be simplified a bit more, e.g.

Proportional: . . .  you get half of all the reward, less three percent, which is commission to the pool operator.
Pay-per-Share: . . . that fixed price is, on average, ten percent less than you would get on a statistical average over the long term.

I think these are fair commissions as they are in line with others.  I mention it here only because if it is not completely clear to everyone, people are going to jump all over you when they finally get a clue and they are going to accuse you of cheating them.  Look at Slush's pool . . . people were asking him pointed questions, as if he were up to no good, at a time he wasn't even charging anything.  Just FYI, the only reason I left Slush's pool is that I was getting a large percentage of invalid/stale responses which may have accounted for a percentage of loss larger than anyone's commission.  That may have been a problem on my end, and not with Slush's pool, but since it has apparently been eliminated, I will stick with your pool for awhile.  My motto:  Put all of your eggs in one basket.  Then watch that basket.

I switched to PPS last night until I see us getting stable again with results.

EDIT: My PPS is even well below normal.  Just 0.08823492 last hour.  I should be nearer .315/hour with 488Mhash/s based on my calculations.

Last hour back at .331 - as it should be - will watch this today...

If you are generating coins with a miner and connected to deepbit, then no, you do no have to have the regular client up at all.

If you are using a cpu miner, having generate coins on in the regular client would be a counter productive thing to do as well.

Ok, then, i have a GUI miner running, and bitcoint too (but disabled generating coins)
This is the mining:



Is that ok then??

Definitely proportional. But you have to understand there's a bit of variance involved so in short periods PpS is more constant but if you intend to run it for at least a week which is how long I think it'll take to even out for how fast the pool finds blocks you'll get more with proportional.

My personality type: INTJ - please forgive my weaknesses (Not naturally in tune with others feelings; may be insensitive at times, tend to respond to conflict with logic and reason, tend to believe I'm always right)

It certainly appears that after we find a block in a short time (i.e., less than 60 minutes) the next block is closer to 4-5 hours.
Code:
05.03.2011 12:19:40 3h 02m
05.03.2011 09:17:00 0h 16m

05.03.2011 09:00:13 13h 21m
04.03.2011 19:39:11 0h 38m

04.03.2011 11:40:10 3h 55m
04.03.2011 07:44:57 0h 03m

04.03.2011 07:41:48 5h 35m
04.03.2011 02:06:22 0h 55m
04.03.2011 01:11:19 4h 52m
03.03.2011 20:19:12 0h 12m

The exception is the "God Run" we had on 3 March where we had 5 in a row less than an hour...

I just switched too and I am seeing much more consistent results, which is to be expected Smiley.  Maybe I will switch back, but I doubt it since I like seeing consistent results.

Wolfdog,

There is a 10% fee for PPS so in the long run it isn't as good as proportional.  That said, I do like the consistent $.33/BTC per hour

Thought i'd make myself a simple script to show me when i go below 0.2 hourly average (PPS average, to switch to that). deepbit is treating me well Smiley.

No problem.

I think my Excel sheet needs revision. It's totally off. Anyway, the average so far is higher than the PPS average by 22% over the period of 3 days (0.2 vs 0.243). At least for me. So i'm happy.
