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!


if i use this command and list three pools in raw. but let say the first one is my preferred one. lets say i run this, and i walk away form comp. after an hour my first pool goes down. this would mean the second pool will take over.. but if my first pool starts working 10 minutes after it first went down. would this see that my first pool went back online and switch back? or it would stay at the second pool , regardless if the first one come up again?
