Boast how many block u solved, PPS and length of time mining

[alatvian]

Some results finally.  The stock miner from ypool didn't seem to work, even after half a day of mining.  I dug down to this post https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=257623.msg2846079#msg2846079.  Normally I'm pretty resistant to downloading binary blobs from random people on the internet and running them on my machine, but it's not running as root so what could possibly go wrong? 

So on my Intel Pentium D dual-core 2.80GHz box, after running for only a few hours, I see:

Code: [Select]

SPH: 2.04 - Val/h 0.8268 - 4ch/h: 268 - 5ch/h: 24 - 6ch/h: 5.09 - 7ch/h: 1.02 - PPS: 690

Yay.  Rather piddly, but I've finally gotten a result.  I have a few shares in ypool and have something to show for my efforts.  Yes I have to run things in wine but them's are the breaks.  I still have some doubt that a GPU miner will be all it's cracked up to be, given the nature of the math involved.

Anyone know of a porting effort to native Linux?

I have been testing this one out myself on Ubuntu 64bit 8 core Opteron under wine and found v4 works better than v5. However, on my Win7 64 bit Desktop the v5 works better.

I would like a port to Linux also ...

I got a strange block reward last night....

In the last few weeks I've probably found about 15 blocks, and each time the reward has been 11.xx XPM per block. 

However, last night I mined 2 blocks within an hour of each other.  The one mined at 4:03am rewarded 11.10 XPM, but the one at 03:14am rewarded 11.112418 XPM

Anyone else had this happen?

That will be a traansaction fee that has been added as reward to the block

Could happen when difficulty drops, too.

I'm running a number of vps machines on DigitalOcean, and I'm getting quite a number of shares on Ypool.

I have set up Fedora 64bit Desktop, with wine installed, running jhPrimeminer v7.1

I use -s 2000000 because mumu recommended a minimum of 2000000. The PPS goes down from when I was running -s 300000, but the number of shares it finds goes up. So PPS is not the true measurement on Ypool, only an indicator.

With this setup the PPS varies from 4500 to 5750. I have 30 of these running, and I'm getting around 12 XPM per day with these.

Until v7.1 came out the workers kept coming up as inactive, now they stay green, and rarely turn yellow.

I also have an old e-machine computer that I installed Ubuntu on, running v7.1 and it finds a share every 3 to 4 hours, not very exciting. 

I have found 12 blocks so far in 10 days of mining on YPool.net.

[ranmn7]

Just wanted to state an observation here.

YPool.net is mining just under 30% of the blocks found.

in the past 72 hours we've mined 1176 blocks. I've checked the block numbers and in the past 24 hours the network has been mining just under 1 block a minute. So right now, there isn't a huge increase in prime processing as some other threads are suggesting.

Its very easy to see if that were to occur, because the block numbers would go up dramatically, indicating more than one block per minute being mined.

Is it not quite expensive to run 30 instances on DigitalOcean? 30 x $20 = $600/month?

Ouch! If that's true, you're spending $600 to make $300 if you get good exchange rates...

I guess he has the cheapest 1 core instances for $5 each, so he is paying $150 a month.

Two servers (even have 2 x Xeon X5570 CPU), even produce ~3000 PPS, one week, 0 blocks found  It is normal?!
