@gsrcrxsi / high rejection rate:
on v0.7: i'm currently experiencing this on my own, it looks like the rejects are coming in "chunks" with 5-6 rejects in a row, then everything is fine again.
is this was you're seeing too?

i don't have a hint right now what's the cause, i'll have to dig deeper through the server logs / mining code 

/edit: and i just got home, i'll check the code now.

@cjrhoades / afr33sl4ve:
this is getting a little confusing, so you're using v0.5 and v0.7 ? both with the same problem.
and both of you encounter the "collision found" but -no- "submitted share -> <whatever>" line in the miner output?

if this happens and you dont see enough shares in the last blocks (user stats), then it looks like the submission is not reaching the server, thus you don't get an answer from the server about your submitted share. the miner itself counts every share that has been submitted regardless of the/an answer from the server about that submission.

also please be aware, that your most recent shares are currently not shown in the user stats, as these are bound to found blocks, and the last found blocks is 2.5 hours old

Is it new 0.7 version or older?

Yes, v0.7a running on a Core i5 2500k @ 4.7GHz. 4 threads and default memory usage.

[afr33sl4ve]

Hmm, the miner is showing over 1200 submitted shares but my user stats page is only showing around 300 of them. Is the stats page just slow to update? I've also noticed a huge dip in performance for seemingly no reason. Last night it was doing 125 c/m and 2.6 sh/m. Woke up this morning to check on it and its at 57 c/m and 0.9 sh/m.

EDIT: I just closed the miner and restarted it. Now its running at 145 c/m and 3.4 sh/m. Does it get slower and slower over time?

That is what I noticed as well.

Is it new 0.7 version or older?

I noticed it with 0.5a and 0.7a

you should at least check your miner('s connection) and probably restart it
i checked the connection from my side and everything seems fine (incl. receiving work, finding collisions, submitting work, receiving work result)

which OS and which miner do you use?

- xolokram

ps. btw i'm thinking about implementing xpt protocol to let you guys mine with jh's miner

I'm using your miners. 1x 0.5a (3 threads) on Windows 7 Enterprise and 2x 0.7a (2 threads each) on Debian 7.1 via HP Cloud.

[gsrcrxsi]

I am also getting some crashing with v0.7

win7 64bit
q9550 (supposed to have sse4.1, but not being reported by cpuz)
8GB ram

running v0.5 works fine (no memory option )

running v0.7 starts, i get a message saying no AVX, and then it switches to SPHLIB, then after receiving work it crashes.

not sure why its trying to failover to SPHLIB first instead of SSE4

bringing this back up, did you fix the SSE4 issue for the windows miner yet?

also im seeing a 29% reject rate on one of my miners. what can cause that?

ps. letme check the server, this and the very high blocktime are strange

ok, if you ask me someone's trying to fu-- up the pool (or is using a totally broken status update script)
more than 5k connections on port 80 while 4k miners are connected...

So, I shouldn't have to worry then? Good stuff. Thanks!

[btc2084]

Am considering maxing out RAM to 32GB.  Is there a realistic expectation that v.7 would actually perform much better w/ greater RAM available than is used in the default settings?

I have a Core i7 920 with 18GB of memory.  When I try to mine with ptsminer_64bit_avxsse, it crashes as soon as it submits a share.  I am simultaneously mining LTC with cgminer but I get the crash whether I am dual-mining or not.

JHProtoMiner is also usually unable to connect or, when it can, it doesn't detect any collisions on beeeeer.  It does work on ypool and gets about 40-50 more c/m but I'd rather be mining on beeeer if I can.
