[9 TH] Bitparking Pool, DGM 0%,vardiff,stratum,Merge Mining

[doublec]

There's a thread someone started for this but I can't edit it for hash rate or features so I've started this one. The Bitparking Merged Mining Pool mines Bitcoin, Namecoin. IXcoin and Devcoin. Features of the pool:

• URL: http://mmpool.bitparking.com
• DGM at 1.5% fee
• Payout on found blocks enabled after only a few confirmations - no waiting for the full 120
• Miners can select difficulty level (see below)
• Merge Mining Bitcoin, Namecoin, ixcoin and devcoin
• Stratum support on stratum+tcp://mmpool.bitparking.com:3333
• Simple registration. Just set your username, coin addresses and mine.
• Getwork mining on port 80 available by pointing your miner to http://mmrpc.bitparking.com instead of http://mmpool.bitparking.com:15098
• Mining stats.
• IRC Channel: #mmpool on freenode IRC network
• Run by the operator of the first public bitcoin mining pool.

I've kept everything deliberately sparse. Coin addresses can't be edited once created (by design) but you can register a new username anytime with new addresses. This is to prevent unauthorized people modifying addresses.

Large hashrate miners can choose to set their own difficulty to mine at. To do this set your password to be "d=8" to mine at difficulty 8. Change '8' to any number less than 60,000.

congrats to your bitparking-mmpool, i'm a member of your pool, because of mm and pps

keep it up with your excellent work

I've adjusted the fees for the pool based on current stale and orphan rates down to 2.5% for all coins. Previously it was 5% for bitcoin/namecoin/devcoin and 7.5% for i0coin and ixcoin. Current PPS rates are:

• bitcoin 0.00003898
• devcoin 0.08386213
• i0coin   0.00844560
• ixcoin 0.00344397
• namecoin 0.00010509

Note these change based on difficulty so check mmpool for the up to date rates.

Mining is available on port 80 (standard HTTP port) by using the server mmrpc.bitparking.com. So instead of using http://mmpool.bitparking.com:15098, just use http://mmrpc.bitparking.com. This is slightly less efficient than the 15098 port in that internally it redirects to that but it shouldn't be noticeable.

I just noticed the fee has dropped to 2.5%, thanks!

the pool's web page is very simple, it's ok with a pps pool, at least for me.
however, I still want to see my daily earnings, just like the 24hr earnings in other pools,
currently, I record it down and figure it manually, it will be convinience if you have the information in the http://mmpool.bitparking.com/user/XXXX page。

Yes, it's a good idea. Currently I adjust balances immediately on receiving a share so can't identify earnings in a 24 hour period easily. I can show number of shares in a 24 hour period without too much difficulty since I already keep that information. I'll look at adding the earnings feature though.

sth is wrong with the pool?

I restarted cgminer, it's ok now

[Sysrq]

Site is down 

[tiker]

Maybe for some updates or new features? 

[doublec]

Pool is back up now. There appears to have been a kernel panic that shut it down as a result of something namecoind related. I'm looking into it what caused that.

[Sysrq]

And again, thank you sir !

[tripper22]

I'm getting a lot of long polling restarting in 30 seconds errors. I'm using cgminer 2.1.2. Any ideas?

Are you still getting them or was it just for a short period of time? What does cgminer say the longpoll URL is? Try the http://mmrpc.bitparking.com:80/ URL for the miner - that uses a port 80 longpoller too and may help identify if it is a firewall issue.

The errors occur whenever long polling is turned on using http://mmpool.bitparking.com:1509. I am presently using http://mmpool.bitparking.com:15098 with long polling turned off (efficiency is 98%).

With http://mmrpc.bitparking.com:80/ long polling on (efficiency is 68%) and it tends to stall from time to time (but no long polling errors). So i'm back to http://mmpool.bitparking.com:15098 with long polling turned off.

Let me know if you want me to test anything else.

[tripper22]

I just switched back to http://mmrpc.bitparking.com:80/ with long polling. I figure I should give it an hour before I come to any quick conclusions. I will let you know.

[tripper22]

Okay I just finished the hour on http://mmrpc.bitparking.com:80 with long polling. No LP errors with 73% efficiency. Hopefully that helps you out.

Thanks, I'll do some work on longpolling efficiency. Part of the problem is longpolls are so often with the number of chains being mined.

Is there any interest in additional user stats? If so, what sort of stats? Or a leaderboard of users?

the hashrate displayed in user page seems a short term average, if it is not difficult, I'd like to see a long term average, for example,1hr/12hr average.

[navigator]

I would like a 24-hour earnings stat like on btcguild.
