I just started using the ckpool android app about a week ago. Is it possible the app is being used as part of a DDos attack?
I like the ability to check my hash rate and to get an alert when the pool finds a block. It does check it every 10 minutes or so.
Just wondering. I realize the "distributed" part of the attack means it comes from a lot of different sources, but there is the possibility of over 900 users hitting your pool info at whatever interval the app is set for.

I've been using the CKPool android app for a while too. Last week I got a whole bunch of block alerts coupled with "your hashrate has dipped below... " alerts... I got really excited that we scored a string of blocks until I realized how unlikely that really was given our luck lately Wink

Then it just happened again this morning. Thought we had a block, but nope. And got the same "your hashrate dipped" alert as well.

App problem, or related to the DDoS reported by Kano, or... ?

Thanks all. Still hanging in this pool since I started mining over the summer... I will be sacrificing a TURKEY tomorrow... two in fact... that must count for something!
