V10 works well on my 280x cards. Thanks Claymore.

[Claymore]

If you have a problem with v10, press "s" to enable detailed statistics and send a screenshot here so I can see that you have been mined for a few hours with good CPD but no 9/10 chains found. Also let me know what "-ss" value you use (or default), Catalyst version and what CPU and GPUs you have.

V10 on 6GPU rig with i5 okay default options, 6GPU with G1610 okay with -ss 2

Estimates 15 CPDs wiht 10.0v but reality is much much less. I didnt want to wait longer but yesterday it was running for 9 hours and I got like 1 CPD on average.

CPU single-core AMD sempron 145 2,8 GHz, -ss 3, 3x 280x cards. With 9.1 everything works fine, I get ca 14 CPD.

Confirmed, you have too small 7ch value, for 15 CPD you must have about 400 7ch/h. Something wrong in CPU code execution. Anyone else with different CPU? Right now it seems it is related to Sempron 140/145, I will check it in details.

[urubu]

V10 has been very good for me on 3x290x (i7)  - 6 11 chains yesterday and today. Other rig is quad 1366 CPU with 4 mixed 7000 series cards- it has not been as good.

Thanks, now I see the problem. It's very strange that I cannot reproduce it for now, but I will try to find the reason and release bugfix asap.
1 estimated CPD must produce at least 20 7ch/h, 10 cpd is at least 200 ch/h 7ch, etc. So if you see much less 7 ch/h values, don't use v10, wait for updated version.

[BlockChasers]

Across all 5 290/290x rigs I was getting 0 avg CPD after 6 hours.  My single 270x rig is working fine though. Back to 9.1 for me.

[Claymore]

Bug in "-ss 3" option, updated version will be available in a few hours.

[Claymore]

v10.1 is available:

- Fixed bug with "-ss 3" option.
- Improved speed by about 3% for all cards.

Performance (tests were made on Core i5/i7, default options, no overclock):
- 290X 1000/1250 - 9.1 CPD.
- 280X 1030/1500 - 6.1 CPD.
- 270X 1100/1400 - 4.3 CPD.

Nice , i'm getting the correct 7chains now , with 15 cpd on 3 7950 amazing !!

Restart v10 (or earlier) to reset stats and you will see same high rate of outdated shares - it seems ypool has hard ddos attack right now:
http://ypool.net/xpm/stats_overall
see at pool load deviations for last hours.
Same reason for long connection.
"CheckPrimeProofOfWork" - you must get it for <1% of shares, but anyway I will fix it in next update.

i hit 4 blocks today in a span of 17hrs... anyone noticed that? i'm guessing this must have been due to ypool going offline or being unavailable due to ddos...

Come on, it's pure luck. Your miner is searching for chains of prime numbers. The only way for ypool to affect your miner is through difficulty. Which dipped today but not by much.
