[ANN] ptsweb.beeeeer.org - Protoshares mining sub-pool

[ehalvers]

Thanks for the fix guys, hope it works. And do you think it would be worth running multiple instances with 8 cores?

[ro79dc20d]

to get better performance with version 5 client run multiple instances

for example with a dual Xeon E5-2690 I get about 380 Col/min with 32 threads
but running two instances of ptsminer_64bits with 16 threads each yields 220 col/min

I also set the affinity of each process ( using procexp) so each instance runs from a single cpu, seems to add about 10+/- col/min

so 440 col/min vs 380

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Windows Error Reporting]
"DontShowUI"=dword:00000001

Thanks, already uploaded the file to my VPSs, the file should have only the part I quoted, right?

Correct. Again, the only tricky part is making sure it's saved as a filename.reg not a filename.reg.txt.

Had to run v4 v5 keeps crashing, im getting alot of rejected shares on my miners.

Easiest way to do it. Create a file with notepad:

---
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Windows Error Reporting]
"DontShowUI"=dword:00000001
---

Save as anything.reg (make sure you change the default save from .txt) and then double click on it.

[HCarvalho]

Create the following 32bit DWORD and set it to 1:

 HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\ Microsoft\Windows\Windows Error Reporting\DontShowUI

That will stop the dialog and allow your loop'd batch file to work.

Noob question, how do we do that?

[CryptoN8]

Create the following 32bit DWORD and set it to 1:

 HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\ Microsoft\Windows\Windows Error Reporting\DontShowUI

That will stop the dialog and allow your loop'd batch file to work.

Brilliant, thank you sir!

Is the speed difference between v04 and v05 great? I'm thinking of leaving the v04 mining through the nigh on my 20 VPS cores, so it won't crash after a couple of hours

How do i run the miner in a loop? 64 bit. windows.

[CryptoN8]

pool has been restarted

How do you make it not pop up the dialog box saying it crashed?

[xolokram]

pool has been restarted
(and it will be restarted again later due to testing/patch deployment)

[CryptoN8]

I think its has to do when network connection is lost or pool is restarted... and yes its kinda pain, i got to keep monitoring my 10 machines to see if they are working or not every few hours =\

Hope that gets sorted out soon

Yeah and the part that is frustrating is that it does not just crash the script, it puts up a fricken dialog box in Windows saying the app crashed that you have to click. Makes it hard to restart the process automatically. At this point I'm thinking about splitting the threads between two pools. It sucks PTS has not evolved enough to have backup pools in a common client yet.

[ehalvers]

Yeah its a little bothersome that I cant just walk away from them for hours haha.

I'm sure xolo is hard at work on a fix
