No because it was supposed to happen so quickly that nobody would notice. You got me :-)
Don't worry, just did some maintenance work that caused a couple minutes downtime.
I think we'll stick to Slack for now. I'm already at max capacity juggling the various communication mediums like Twitter, Slack and the forum.
That's interesting. All of the stratum ports have varDiff enabled so the difficulty should auto-adjust. Our desired share submission interval is 15 seconds but from the screenshot it's obvious that your miner is submitting share within much shorter intervals. I will look into this.
That should work fine. You just gotta be careful to leave some CPU resources to the GPU miner to allow it to drive the GPU at max capacity.
I would even implement migrating shares from one pool to another if it weren't for the difficulty differences between the chains. Have to think about this when I'm not so tired. Just brought 8 more servers online to further isolate the daemons, in an attempt to eliminate the slightest chance of performance problems.
Hah, that's nothing. Take a look at that truely divine strike of luck the Monero pool got blessed with recently :)
They are ours.
@Kalin: I don't think someone is targetting our pool specifically. The operation appears to be aimed at "everyone else".
Quote from our Slack: looks like the guys at antpool/viabtc are at it again. 4 orphans in a row. Looked at the orphan profile and it appears that dash network gets a couple of orphans in a row, and there was a pattern with wallet XxHS6RDp1KfmtqRWjHBjzxzx1u7pypeJur appearing to be a beneficiary of the orphaning, in short order after block is spiked.. this wallet has movements in and out which look pool like. The rapidity of the block generation means it is a big pool. Its building a reserve between payouts and generation quickly. I think bitmain are hiding some of their miners into a new pool, and using this pool as a raid on legit blocks, the same way they rejected blocks previously. The a-holes were able to sneak in a pair of orphans once every day or couple of days, with no one really noticing, but then they appear to have gotten more greedy again. the sooner the chinese govt shut the feckers down the better
