KanoPool since 2014 🐈 - PPLNS and Solo 0.5% fee - Worldwide - 2438 blocks

As I'm relatively new to mining, sorry if this is a silly question that just everyone knows.

Looking at the worker page on kano.is it says my total is 7th/sec, but looking at each miner individually they show a total of 11.4th/sec, where does that discrepancy come from?

I think one is an instant hash rate and one is an average.  I would imagine after a few shifts they'll be closer to matching.

5min average/ 1Hr average Kano said it was dynamic few pages back.

Yep the 5min value is there coz people have wanted to see it change when they start mining - but it jumps around a lot of course.
The 1hr value should be the value of interest.
However, if you haven't been mining for an hour yet, it doesn't show the "1hr" value

... and a bit of news, especially for those who have been mining here since we started in September.

That last block we just got, 339388, https://blockchain.info/block/00000000000000000088ea4d769abcf758d8d18d68d457abf083e515c4d12437
it the 100th successful block we've found (plus one orphan after the 1st block we found)

Happy 100 everyone

Would you be able to list the block numbers on the website with reverse numbering, but same order, so that we can see the "true" block #?  Right now #1 is actually #100.

Congrats everyone. I haven't been here since the beginning,  but it's been a fun few months!

Damn we are on fire today!

Yep, all going well 

My hash power will be down for 16hrs due to a local electricity supplier problem

and Happy 100th to you along with congratulations to you and CK on a great pool.

For anyone who noticed?
The pool just took a nose dive and crashed.
I've been running an older version of ckpool while ckolivas has been fixing a few problems on the solo pool.
One of the old problems (that has been fixed) reared it's head and took out the pool.
I'm still running that version (when I restarted it after the crash) but will probably move to the latest version now solo seems to be stable.
That should simply be a reconnect message in cgminer when I switch and no real outage or failover when I do it shortly.
Sorry for the short outage that happened.

[OVRGRO]

i did notice that. i also noticed my best share actually shows up for the solo pool. it was my first time there since switching my failover pool earlier today.

[kano]

My first is: stratum+tcp://stratum.kano.is:3333

If that connection goes down I have this: stratum+tcp://stratum80.kano.is:80

Is it possible for stratum 3333 to go down and stratum80 to still work?  

It could be if 3333 is down that 80 will be down as well and what I'm doing is negligible. 

I would think so under a certain circumstance.  Is it worth it to do that and have another pool for third?

Both ports point to the same ckpool instance.
If one port got blocked due to a ddos or other such issues not part of ckpool, then having the 2nd one would help in that case.
ckdb only supports one backend ckpool at the moment and that's not high on the priorities so will be a way off before that's changed.
cgminer itself handles having multiple active and multiple backup pools - as you realise - and that should resolve any pool outages.

P.S. I've switched ckpool over to the latest version already also.

If you are address mining and checking the stats with
 http://www.kano.is/address.php?a=1abc or http://www.kano.is/worker.php?a=1abc_worker
you will now see that extra information here also

Kicking ass and taking names! 

Still having a little trouble with the pool - but only done a few very quick restarts.
Though we did find that last block during this.
ckpool performs well even under duress

There's 2 users mining that are trying to connect over and over and failing:
One who has an invalid bitcoin address: 1DZUF1cZDQBpHcVWCy8FtBxu1uqxbqJxz2mb
The other with a username not setup on the web site: Raulito

Would be good if they both sorted out their miner settings or created accounts

ckolivas has sorted out the error messages they were causing, but still be better if they setup properly.

My miners just switched over to other pools again...

[Beachguy]

Zach , your charts give a good look at things.
And wow, 10 blocks in last three days sure is impressive.
everything seems to be settling down.

Kano, do you ever sleep?
