[~1000 GH/sec] BTC Guild - 0% Fee Pool, LP, SSL, Full Precision, and More

[eleuthria]

US Central froze.  There were no shares being solved by that server during that time.

[snailbrain]

seems to be a problem still

Must be a bad day for BTCGuild. Server problems and a ton of invalids and unlucky blocks in last 24 hours. My rewards dropped by 25% today

Seriously  Lots of 1.5+ hour blocks (with a 3.5 hour block), 4 invalid blocks, servers going down, scripts getting stuck, it all just went to crap today  This run of bad luck is on par with a fire station catching fire and burning down. Need more 5 min blocks where I get a ton of shares 

[snailbrain]

hmm no.. i think the blocks are being solved?
 "this round", keeps resetting?

Can we get a health update on the BTC guild pool.

 I have noticed some discrepancies. I woke up today to find some of my stronger and faster miners were getting less shares then the much weaker miners.(running on another BTC server)  After changing servers it seemed to get a little better.

What going on

DE2 server is online.  NL1 and NL2 DNS records have been moved to DE2, so no DNS records point towards the NL servers.  I will close off those pools completely once their speed approaches < 10 GH/s.

[flower1024]

it would be nice if you make it possible to connect miners to port 80 too (maybe [srv].btcguild.com only)

atm i have to use putty to ssh me out which is prettyugly

and i would like to see some pool hopping prevention (today it seems that you delay round times, but misses to delay shares this round; but after reading this thread i am not really sure)

btcguild is my favorite (donating 2.5%

Server crashes from trying to get a bitcoind that will actually utilize the full specs of the servers caused some bad performance.  I've reverted the changes to the basic bitcoind modification (RPC threading) by JoelKatz for now.  He's got some new fixes for the getwork patches, but I am giving the pool some time to recover for now before testing the patch on one of the servers again.

This server performance issue was compounded by overall bad luck in the last 24-36 hours.  We're still having good luck since the latest difficulty change, but those multiple days of +10-20% luck caught up to us.

US Central froze.  There were no shares being solved by that server during that time.

What's the status on US Central?  It seems to have been down (more or less) since 24 hours ago (Friday night CDT).

Fortunately I have a backup pool for cases like this -- but when is this going to be fixed?

US Central has been up for the past 12 hours or so.  Running just fine.

[hugolp]

USeast is misbehaving badly. 3 of my 4 workers are idle.

[Quantus]

Yeah what ever you guys are doing its not working.

Put it back the way it was for at least a few days... the only good server is getting overloaded.

[Duffman]

I think uswest just went down

[OCedHrt]

Now uswest, uscentral, useast are all down. And so is the website.

[flower1024]

de.btcguild.com is still up
but please: dont switch all there...

website is down for me too

EDIT: 5 secs later website is there, but miner can't connect.. grml
EDIT2: for me all is working fine now.. was just a few second hick up.

btcguild is still my favorite.

but please: offer support for miners at port 80!!!!

you could archieve that easily with:
iptables -A INPUT -i eth0 -p tcp --dport 80 -j ACCEPT
iptables -A INPUT -i eth0 -p tcp --dport 8332 -j ACCEPT
iptables -A PREROUTING -t nat -i eth0 -p tcp --dport 80 -j REDIRECT --to-port 8332

and do some pool-hopping prevention....e.g. just delay stats a little

problems and more problems ,  hope this is fixed soon

I just got this:

Code:

Fixing issues with US West pool. My Account page is temporarily disabled.

Looks like they're working on it. Can't wait until all the servers are replaced/upgraded.

Before you guys try freaky shit with your servers maybe you could send out a warning e-mail.


Profits are razor thin for me I don't know about others
