Eligius: 0% Fee BTC, 105% PPS NMC, No registration, CPPSRB

Looks like the site's down again but my miners are still going.  Hope I'm still getting credit for these shares.

Confirm.

Just wanted to share a little story while I am here

Got 2 more S1 miners yesterday - set the up like the others and  sat waiting for the stats to go up and up
everything looked OK for the first 2 hours or so then one of the new ones lost conection.
Set about turning it off - ( same PSU for both ) and on again -- then could not get connected again - and also the second could not either.

Being a novice I took them both back to the living room and set about resetting them.
Nothing on first - nothing on second --

So did a scan for WIFI and only found 2 S1's out of my total 5

BAck to the comp room and there was one of the remaining  S1's off-line now.

After a long and frustrating time - it turned out to be the SKY ROUTER -

After a reset ... I got all 5 back up.

So a warning to noobs like me -- check your rooter too.

Loyal Eligius Miner :p
Chris.

Someone wake the Wizkid up and tell him to restart the Commodore 64 the site is running on.....

Looks like stats are down, they were up yesterday.

Miners check out fine however, so it must be just the stats server again.

I think I have a spare quad core lying around somewhere, must be better than the Commodore 64 running the stats...

What kind of machine would you need to run the stats to keep up with the pool? Seems like it coughs up a furball every two weeks !

Know this is off topic, but FYI:

Ordered a BFL Imperial Monarch (1TH/s version) on 03-04-2014.
BFL promised shipping by mid May (in writing).
Now 06-07-2014 no card in hand.
Asked for refund, turned down.

Hate getting stiffed for $3K.

Nothing changes with BFL.  I'd say you'll be lucky to receive it this year.

Working on migration of the core pool database to a better infrastructure.  Then migrating the www database to the hardware previously used for the core pool database.  This should increase pool performance and stats/www performance substantially.

I apologize for the minimal hiccups this will cause with pool connections. Pool instances will require restarts, thus forcing reconnects... downtime estimate: < 5 seconds.

CPPSRB will be in failsafe until this transition is complete.  As always, no accepted shares lost.

Thanks for the info

I read a lot and do not post a lot. and have meant to say thank you many times, but chose to remain silent.

My SKY HUB is about my only gripe at the moment .. Not your fine work

Core migration complete.

WWW migration will take a little longer, as I'm going to wipe and re-purpose the old core DB server.

shouldn't you have said lucky if you receive it at all? hehe

And good luck getting it in the form factor promised.  It'll change from a GPU design to a shuttle PC case by the time they're done adding a larger power supply and adequate cooling.

Finally got a NMC payout. Thnx. Also, my variance is insane now as I'm a tiny fish in this pool now.

Hmmm, strange, I should have received quite a few since the first manual NMC payout, but so far still nothing. I wonder if the automatic NMC payout thing is still a work in progress.

Any Eligius fans (I'm one) have any thoughts about the Ghash.io share of hashrate atm? I know they have bumped against the 50% ceiling and backed down in the past, but this seems to be a recurring issue that will not go away.

Blockchain guesses them to be at 44% as of today. If they are right, then this is cutting mighty close. If they are wrong, then ghash could have crossed the 50% a while back.

It won't go away.  GHash.io's private farm alone is larger than any other pool as is, and they continue to expand it.

Historically miners abandon ship when a pool gets close to 50%.  We'll see if that holds true for ghash.

Hopefully there are enough non-idiots mining still who know to ignore garbage like this.

Seems a bunch of miners jumped from BTCGuild to ghash for whatever reasons and brought about the temporary spike.

As far as I can see 1,000Th is about 1% of total worldwide.

So a few 1000Th jumping around is a very low percentage overall ?


Hope the pool luck gets better --- last 24 hours is damned unlucky

Pushing 10 hours! This is a long one (that's what she said).
