Re: BFGMiner 5.0.0: GBT+Stratum, RPC, Mac/Linux/Win64, BlackArrow Prospero, KnC Nep.

Hi,

I've got number of the Avalon Nano (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=779612.msg8841428;topicseen#msg8841428) and have successfuly downloaded and compiled fresh version of bfgminer and run it. It works fine for couple of minutes, then it starts to get slower and finally stall at all. Restarting the bfgminer helps but for same couple of minutes.

I've got configuration here: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Avalon_nano#BFGMiner
here is a log (last half of that): http://pastebin.com/EQAj58HH

The obvious solution -- to make the simple script that restart BFGMiner each 2 minutes, but it's doesn't looks good.

Would be appreciate for any help and hints!

PS I'm on linux (if it may concern...)

I have a similar issue but with Scrypt on multipools (Clevermining, in this case). Nwools noted that it's a known issue with BFGminer that the hashrate will drop as the multipool switches blockchains. I'm using a mix of Gridseed Orbs and a Blizzard. I'm not sure if this has been fixed in version 5.0.

Are you using a multipool, Dimoza? If yes, that might be issue.

actually, not. I use classical stratum "single" pool.
But... concerning to your issue, does your hashrate drops to 0 or just getting relatively lower? Cause mine drops to zero.
(and I was trying it on ver 5.0 as well, by the way)

The hashrate will get progressively slower rather than just dropping to 0.
