[cryptonit]

Thank you Cryptonit. I see now, problem is at the exchange. However, I did withdraw 1dmd ( minus withdraw fee ) from Cryptsy after the loss and creation of the txid I provided. Also my wallet has not minted since the lost withdrawal. I have some problem with my wallet.

a couple of people reported high cpu usage from the latest wallet.

I am getting 70-80% cpu usage from wallet version 2.0.3.0

hardware specs please OS and CPU?
in minting mode or not?
and then please try upgrade to 2.0.3.1 and repeat and compare results
thx for active feedback

It seems to only be occurring in minting mode.

Haven't upgrading yet, will update when I do.

if u have very much coin pile entries please check coin control then minting need lot cpu
but over time with successful minting the coins should form bigger pile size around 100 dmd

this is a dmd pos feature that make sure coin dont split each mining but also merge if the coing-age is above 30 days
multiple coin pile up to 100 dmd together try to mint as if the would be one pile if mint successful the coins merged together

this createsome cpu load

guess u have lot 1 dmd coin pile from mining

About hight CPU usage.

I am currently hacking the next wallet version, with the specific focus to cure the dreaded block index corruption issue (already found out the reason).
However, during testing and some measurements, it seems the wallet is doing some 12 calculations of the block hash for each block it receives from the network (this, considering 2.0.3.1 already has eliminated some of these!). These hash calculations are always expensive.

In minting mode, the wallet would periodically traverse over the list of coin 'piles' it has, as well as all the addresses it has in the wallet. As it turns out, the Bitcoin design and therefore inherited by almost all other coins is to create a new address for the 'change' (the remainder, when you send coins). This is done to 'guarantee' anonymity, although what is achieved is questionable, because anyone with the full block chain can track this, of course. The sad side effect is your wallet gets bloated more and more, as you send out coins.

So if you have had many outgoing transactions, you will have lots of very small coin piles and (unfortunately) many addresses (public/private key pairs) in the wallets, most of which would have zero balance. In Diamond, PoS would naturally work to group those small coin piles (including dust) into larger piles, but unfortunately, it will not eliminate the addresses..

Some of the next Diamond wallets will have a feature to handle that, if the uses so wishes. That will help greatly busy wallets, such as pools and exchanges. In mean time, you could help yourself -- for new transactions only -- by utilizing the 'change address' feature of Coin Control -- when you send out Diamonds.

What all this means in essence is, that you will get much better performance, if you separate your 'savings' and 'spending' wallets. Only send coins to the 'savings' wallet and let it mint, and do not send out coins out of it -- if you do, use Coin Control to direct the change to your own address.

If you already suffer from too much bloat, about the only possible workaround is this:

   of course, make a backup of your wallet.dat first
   check to see which addresses have coins with listaddressgroupings
   dump the private keys (with dumpprivkey) for each address which you have given out to others to send you coins AND all addresses you identified have coins in the previous step.
   stop the wallet
   move the old wallet.dat out of the way
   start the wallet
   import all the private keys with importprivkey (this will rescan the block chain for each one)

enjoy your faster wallet.

i have only 3 change addresses visible in coin-control
its not really a issue for wallets without lot traffic
from time to time like once every 2 months i clean up the dust and make a transaction to ur self with all micro coin pile (size below 0.1 dmd)
everything bigger i let wallet sort itself with pos grouping

1300 transactions in my wallet 361 coin pile and wallet.dat size is 1mb

i think the really affected wallets are pools and exchanges
there such maintenance as described by danbi make sense
and i guess that is where danbi researched this way of maintenance
his pool wallet have constant transaction bombardment

[foz]

Hmm only have 52 total transactions (405 coins total) and when I run listaddressgroupings I only have 5 addresses listed.

My wallet size is only 104 kb.

After running windows resourse monitor for a few minutes looks like Diamond-qt is averaging 92%+ cpu usage.

Still running 2.0.3.0 though

close to 0.5 btc on first day isnt bad

we can already see nice effects like cryptsy and usecryptos prices align with each other
thats a sign there cross traders existing and once cryptsy fix withdraw/deposit
there will be even more similar prices
and lower trading fee at usecryptos compared to cryptsy

its never meant to replace cryptsy but to open up new possibilities
example it supports chinese language..... (ui existing in 4 languages at usecryptos)

something to think about:

where u can have greater gains?
if u invest now in already high value coins
if u invest now in undervalued coins with high potential

if u invest your money to buy 1 BTC
what do u think its value will be in a year?
500$ 1000$ 10000$ 18000$ (which would be x30 in a year) or even more?

if u invest 1 BTC into dmd
only if they reach a value it already had before
u like 30x ur investment
and diamond have potential to go beyond!

what have higher possibility to happen in next 12 months?

BTC at 18000$ (18 times higher than its all time high) or DMD at 0.0045 (which is equal to its all time high)

and the effect add up it could be BTC value raise and DMD at 0.0045 so u gain double.............

edit:
and did i tell ya already all ur DMD will increase themself 50% in numbers if u hold them 1 year in ur wallet by POS minting....

so lets play a numbers game:
u invest 1 BTC (value like 500$) to buy DMD now lets say u buy at 0.0002 thats
5000 DMD

in one year lets say 1 BTC value is 1500$ and DMD is at 0.005 (both a bit over all time high)
and by POS ur 5000 DMD did increase to 7500 DMD

so how much more $ value u have now?
7500*0.005= 37 BTC x 1500$ =
$ 56250

thats ideal and if lot things develop different it will be a bit less (but could also be more...)
but basical u risc 500$ for the x100 chance and the possibility that 500$ reduce to nothing is very slim with diamond
worst case after a year u sell them for a few hundret dollar again if it didnt work out the way that we all hope....

-------------------------

please register at that forum
vote yes in the poll on top of thread
and post some lines why u want DMD be added at casheer

why we the foundation want DMD listed at casheer?
because they did first what we planed for DMD as a longterm goal
(parasite BTC and be able pay with DMD at any place where BTC is accepted)
now that such a service is in creation it make no sence we create or own
(save resources for other projects)
BUT its very important we get added to this service

one of this multicoin payment solutions will be the future of global payment
its not sure it will be casheer but we will try to be on board on any solution that attempt to be it

the future is such payment solutions which allow u to pay
and chose like anything of value that u own as payment
(creditcard bonuspoints cryptocoins and and and...)
and the solution will handle the conversion

once such solutions are accepted at amazon or ebay
the world will change forever regarding what we consider as money........
and be on board when that happens is very important for DMD Diamond

On the high CPU usage again.

Normally, without any special configuration, the wallet will try to participate as much as possible in the Diamond network. This is of course good thing and is encouraged.

However, combined with the conditions described in my previous post, this might further increase the CPU load.

Consider this: the wallet has by default limit of 125 connections to peers. When a peer sends you a new block, you do some 12 hashes of it in various check routines (at the moment, working on it). It is very much possible that multiple peers will send you the same block at about the same time -- you will ignore all but the first, but will do the processing nevertheless.
In addition, when a peer asks you for blocks to sync (any wallet will ask any and all other wallets it is connected with about blocks it doesn't yet have) you are sending them streams of 500 blocks at a time. You do some processing around selecting those blocks and transmitting them. There may be several peers asking for blocks as the same time.

If you would like to ultimately reduce your CPU usage while minting, you can restrict your participation in the network topology. This topic is sufficiently discussed in the thread, but in short, for least load, you should have

connect=somereliablenode
connect=someothernode
listen=0
noirc=1

If you look back in the thread, this was a suggested configuration for nodes that generate blocks, like when you mint.

If on the other hand, you don't mind the CPU load, you are welcome to let your node fully participate in the network.

[pallas]

thanks danbi for the explanations.
i want to fully partecipate and not clog my nas at the same time, so I look forward a more optimised wallet in the future ;-)
as always I'm ready to make tests and whatever needed.

[stoody]

hi danbi i just wanted to put my 2 cents in ... i run dule core i5, win 7 32 bit, 4gig of ram...and i run 4 different mining programs with 7 miner rigs pluged into 7 different usb slots, and have my wallet open and minting 24/7... my cpu runs about 2%-14% max mainly about 7% and my ram is about 45% in use... i have my config file set as::
listen=0
noirc=1
daemon=1
server=1
rpcuser=***
rpcpassword=***
rpcport=17772
rpcconnect=127.0.0.1
connect=193.68.21.19
connect=54.191.208.14
connect=54.255.133.30
connect=54.86.164.216

what im saying is am i contributing to the dmd network as much as i can.. eg. could i change something to increase my computing power to support the network some more thanks for ur time

Hello mugwarh, I can see you've found your way to Bitcointalk Forum

From what I can see you're already contributing a lot. Good to hear you're constantly minting, this is great security benefit to Diamond.

What sort of mining rigs are you using if u connect them via USB? SHA-256? or some home made Groestl ASIC USB version
