figured i would try this, but, wow, this   miner is horrid

the pool in Austria gets frequent disconnects from 5 different hosts, the miner spends much time in 'warmup' mode, any extra speed is wasted paying to someone else

going through and fixing everything, lol

collisions/min: 224.8938, warmup; Shares found: 12, submitted 12, accepted 12

collisions/min: 233.0360, warmup; Shares found: 21, submitted 21, accepted 21

collisions/min: 192.7183, e=1.2169; Shares found: 24, submitted 24, accepted 21
  Will mine 13 more seconds for miner developers to support development of the next version

gg

oh, enjoy my .05 pts that i can never withdraw

it's like i've been violated, the chicanery and swindling that's going on on this pool + miner,  scary shit

Thanks.

I have a noob question:
Can anyone explain me the differences between the executables:
ptsminer_avx_intel.exe
ptsminer_intel.exe
ptsminer_sse4.exe

And the parameters:
-avx
-sse4
-sph

I have one i7 2600k@3.40GHz (8 threads) and one Xeon (12 threads). Which setting is better for my rigs? I've done some test mixing things, but I can't notice the differences.

Thank you.

cat /proc/cpuinfo or use cpu-id to see if they have avx or sse4.   

well, i can tell you the i7 2600 has avx & sse4, unsure about whatever xeon that is.  since it's a hexacore i think it also has avx (all the hexacore xeons do dont they?)

avx is better, theoretically.  i dont notice much diff between avx and sse4, either.   the diff between avx/sse4 and sph should be noticeable though, maybe over a longer period of time

some machines are more suited to something like quark, eg dual core Xeon L5420 which will max out at around 100 collisions on ptsminer vs 650khash/s on minerd...   1240v3 will get around 800khash/s but 170-180'ish collisions

Boggle.  Seems like 1/2 the posts in here are about this same problem, yet people ignore the answers

The DNS seed nodes that the protoshares client uses are crap, so you have to use addnode.

either do it in your .conf file, addnode=xx.xx.xx.xx

or do it from command line, protoshares addnode xx.xx.xx.xx onetry and protoshares addnode xx.xx.xx.xx add

or do it from the -qt client from the terminal window, addnode xx.xx.xx.xx onetry and addnode xx.xx.xx.xx add

the real problem is that too many people don't allow incoming connections, thus there is a shortage of nodes that have open slots for incoming connections

reason for new wallet not mining was stated above.  use a pool

any new nodes?  i cannot connect for almost a day now

1000$ Google Cloud Compute Starter Pack

https://cloud.google.com/developers/starterpack/

It takes 2-3 days until google enables your trial but it works really great.

edit:

Promo Codes:
1) nrc-org
2) gdg-in

Looks like a pretty good trial, but which promo code do you use? You provided 2 codes.

nrc-org is attached to this http://newrelic.com/

I applied and wrote that I'd be using it to jack it up to 100% CPU usage on various CPU-centric alt cryptocurrencies, purely for profits.  Will let you know the result, etc.

That is the part I don't get.

@BTC2084

Is this your question too?

Looks like 6417 shares to me.

install libboost-chrono

find it in aptitude by searching for chrono

and then install the boost packages that it wants, and remove the others

libboost-all-dev in 12.04 precise will install an older version of boost w/ no chrono

sudo apt-get install libboost-chrono-dev

i haven't used precise in a while, but it seems they added libboost1.48-all-dev

that will install chrono

Hello all, I am trying to mine with ptsminer, under Debian 7 on 2 clouds (IaaS) now, and the two of them are saying
"connecting to 54.201.26.128:1337
no connection to the server, reconnecting in 10 seconds"

apparently 1337 port is closed, I tried adding a firewall rule, but that does not seem to fix the problem. The one cloud provider is running Open Stack:

here is how I added the firewall rule:
http://docs.openstack.org/user-guide/content/Launching_Instances_using_Dashboard.html#security_groups_add_rule

Can you help me?

While SSH'd into the server do this.

Code: [Select]

telnet 54.201.26.128 1337

That will tell you if you can hit the port or not.

I tried that and the screen goes blank, I think that I connects, but still when I run the miner, I says no Connection trying to reconnect. This is with ptsbeeer miner, the same goes for the pts coyote miner. Now I am trying to download the cpu miner of pts pool, to see if I will get a result.

Btw, the cloud instance that I am trying is Google Compute Engine, does anyone has experience with that?

port is open then

get miner from git and compile it there
