[350 GH/s] "Eligius" (experimental) pool: almost feeless PPS, hoppers welcome

[allinvain]

Luke I'm not sure if this has been asked (I read the whole thread and I think not), but what type of connection is the server using? Are you hosting this pool on some pc behind a ADSL/Cable router? My main concern here is the reliability of your setup. As cool as your pool idea may be it won't mean much if it's down a lot.

I run Lightfoot Hosting, and have my personal webpage on one of my VPS. Currently, Eligius (and BitGit) run on that same VPS.

Ah ok so the server is located in a data center. Thanks for answering my questions Luke.

My end or your end?

Also is it just me but I noticed an unusually high number of stale/invalid shares. 833 submitted and 29 stale for one miner. 815 and 36 stale for another.

edit: I dunno Luke I guess I will let the miners on your pool for a little longer but if this keeps up I'll have no choice but to switch them over to another one as I have no spare "play hashing power"

[allinvain]

Very nice the pool's total hash rate just shot up from 35 to 50!

Where is your miner located? Europe, by any chance? Also, check your system clock. It needs to be within 5 minutes of the correct time.

We're lucky today!

Miners are located in Canada. Checked clock - all is well automatically updated via microsoft's NTP servers.

I dunno what else it can be. I'm mining with guiminer btw. Not sure if that has any affect.

Updated coin-control.appspot.com to include IDs so you don't have to keep copy-pasting your address in. Addresses still work, too.

I donated a little bit to you the other night. Thanks for setting up this app.

Thanks man Every donation counts.

Decided to get back into mining today. Got all set up for a night of mining with my 1.6 Ghash/s. Lets see how it goes!

I keep getting "Disconnected from Server" messages, I know thats not normal. Silly network...

Same here...this is nuts. This pool is cool and all but I am tempted to move somewhere cause of the connection issues.

Just set up a second miner on low priority in another pool of your choice.

the newest version of phoenix supposedly fixes the idle problem.
"1.46 has been released which fixes the idle problem."

I was using 1.46... Didn't fix my problem. Dunno if it created it either, though.

try increaseing que size to 2 in phoenix instead of 1 -q 2

[EpicBacon]

I've been mining on this pool for a few days, and I always tolerated the slightly higher number of stales/invalids, but now I'm seeing an average of 5% rejected and up to 10% in the last hour. I will be temporarily switching to btcmine until I hear that this issue is resolved.

EDIT: Disregard that. It was just guiminer, I am an idiot for not trying phoenix 1.46 before leaving the pool.

I now receive ZERO REJECTED SHARES
Phoenix 1.46 lies about rejected shares, after updating to 1.47 I now see a normal number of rejected (around 0.2%)

Thanks! This has also reduced my rejected shares to 0 across 4 GPU's!

[Aurifier]

Read descriptions of the pools listed in the bitcoin wiki and liked what I read about this one best, but...

What do these mean?
