Your own P2Pool node setup on GNU Linux/FreeBSD??

[linuxforyou]

Hello,

Let me know if looking for optimized P2Pool node on GNU/Linux or FreeBSD with performance tuning which varies from hardware to hardware and distribution in use.

Few of the advantages post optimization/tuning=>

• Lower the dead/orphan shares significantly
• Lower get work latency
• Proper bandwidth usage
• Higher payouts as compared to default configs
• Lower power consumption by P2Pool node

and more..

What are the advantages of using P2Pool?

    Small statistical advantages increasing income
    Control over your own pool node
    No need to trust a pool operator
    Immediate payments
    Helps to protect and keep the Bitcoin network decentralized

What are the disadvantages of using P2Pool?

    Initial setup is a little more complicated
    More CPU / RAM / Internet bandwidth required
    Higher payout variance
    Small transaction fees when spending if you receive many small payouts

Distros=debian/fedora/centos/OpenSuse, gentoo/slackware(would need console to configure for gentoo/slackware) etc, FreeBSD or your choice

Welcome to the forums!

I'm a bit confused by your post.  Are you offering to provide the service of setting up and configuring Linux-based p2pool nodes for people?  If so, you may wish to post this in the Services forum: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=52.0

I don't know if you've seen it, but there's a very good thread discussing the setup and configuration of p2pool with merge-mining in Ubuntu here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=651819.0
