It's interesting to see how people are complaining about pools on multiple forums while P2Pool works like a charm with a consistent payout...
So much this. Plus, they don't suffer from DDOSing.

Guys, make use of the --failover-only command in cgminer, so that if pool A goes down your miner automatically switches to pool B or C and so on.

Example usage:

Code:
cgminer --scrypt -o stratum+tcp://doge.netcodepool.org:4094 -u yourusername -p yourpassword --failover-only -o stratum+tcp://doge.scryptpools.com:3333 -u yourusername -p yourpassword --failover-only -o http://37.187.25.91:9555 -u yourDOGEaddress -p yourpassword --failover-only -o http://pool.hostv.pl:9555/ -u yourDOGEaddress  -p yourpassword --temp-target 72 --auto-fan -I 13 -w 256 -g 2 --thread-concurrency 8192 --gpu-memclock 1500 --gpu-engine 1020 --gpu-powertune 0

Has worked like a charm for me. Two normal pools and two p2pools. Since I prefer a pool where I can check on my workers via a website, I have set the p2pools as failover C and D. But I recommend using p2pool if you have a decent hashrate.

Hi, I have about 90.000 khs. Why do you recommend me only using p2pool and not a 'normal' pool?

Thanks!

90 Mh/s or 90 Kh/s? With 90 Kh/s you're better off using a pool that has a low minimum payout threshold. With 90 Mh/s you could go solo. Cheesy

Why use p2pool? Because you get paid tx fees, the pool fees are usually max 1%, no registration is needed and the uptime is excellent. Very few complications in other words. Not to mention the coins get deposited straight into your wallet.



Yes, 90mh/s Smiley - currently about 38-40 servers running. Going to add a few more...


The miners are unix based. Should i get a windows QT version up and running, and mine directly to that?

Nice! In my personal experience; when I tried to CPU-mine a different coin with more than 15 or so servers the wallet I was directing the servers at would crash.

So if you wanna play it safe I suggest simply connecting all your servers to an existing p2pool.

I think the best option (if you have the knowledge) is to create your own p2pool and connect your servers to it.
