Re: [ANN][RIC] Riecoin, new constellations POW **CPU-ONLY** NEW 0.9.2 CLIENT

Below is a sample run from a few minutes ago where the miner stated off with several invalid shares and then seemed to do a little better. I am on a very solid connection to the stratum server and it is on a solid connection to the rie network.

Feel free to PM me if you want to go off list to debug this issue.

Yes, I'm happy to test.

I'm excited to be back to work on our stratum mining pool. At first glance everything appeared to be working. However after running for a while longer I noticed in increasingly terrible rate of invalid shares. Restarting the miner seems to do the trick but of course we don't want to require such frequent restarts!

I'll look into that. Are you willing to test debug versions of miner to help diagnose the problem? thanks!

nonce-pool, do you all see any similar problems?

I'm having only 2% to 3% rejects on nonce-pool, but my ch/s are much lower than yours, don't know if it has something to do.

Hi Gatra & Co.

I'm excited to be back to work on our stratum mining pool. At first glance everything appeared to be working. However after running for a while longer I noticed in increasingly terrible rate of invalid shares. Restarting the miner seems to do the trick but of course we don't want to require such frequent restarts!

We're running gatra's fast stratum miner and stratum pool. In some early runs we had vardiff enabled and saw the server re-target client difficulty. The xptminer didn't seem happy about that so we disabled it and still have poor performance. Is anyone else using the new stratum xptminer and open source stratum miner?

nonce-pool, do you all see any similar problems?

Note the miner runtime in the brackets below. Computer C is much faster but it also degrades to a terrible rejection ratio

Hi riecoin community, what service/services do you think this coin needs to make it more valuable?



the more the merrier!

The most important service would be more pools.
Then it could be online wallets, payment processors, blockchains with api like blockchain.info....

We still have no open source xpt pool or proxy?

I believe Gatra is still working on it. Unsuprisingly, it is difficult to do that. Fortunately, he says that he now has a team of developer I believe?

Many months ago I setup a high uptime distributed pool infrastructure because we were expecting that piece. I don't see how the lack of pools problem will be resolved without it. Oh well. If it ever gets built we'll turn that pool on.

How are other pools doing right now?
upcpu found 4 blocks last 120 blocks.
infinitypool yet to find a block...

Any reasons for this?

The only publicly available pool server uses the stratum protocol but none of the fast mining clients support stratum. Once that changes we should see a more even distribution between pools.

so, does stratum implementation for riecoin work? i see 2 pools listed on main page, and no workers there.

It works but the fast miners are not yet compatible with stratum pools.

any pool?

My pool will launch in a few more hours. It is deployed on a high performance cluster in multiple datacenters so it should be quite fast and resistant to attacks.

In order to mine with me you will need any miner that supports the stratum protocol such as the main riecoin miner linked on the first post: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=446703.msg4912512#msg4912512

Dave (dga) has been so kind as to open source his very fast mining client but it does not support stratum. Please encourage gatra to pull Dave's optimizations into the default miner or someone else to add stratum to Dave's miner.

Right now a single pool controls the Riecoin network with over 90% of the computing power. Riecoin will become much more valuable to all of us once other pools come online to distribute the power.

Now that's two people begging you to add stratum support  Wink

Agreed!

Alternatively, do you know what backend upcpu uses? Looks a lot like the 1gh pools and supports xpt.
No, I was actually quite surprised they had xpt.  Huh

Like you, I'm using mpos. Looks like there are some challenges to make RIC fit their performance metrics and stats. Do you really just have zero/one miner online and no blocks or is that an mpos issue?

I've pushed a few new changes the repository and updated the binaries to -b11.  Changes:

- Import clintar's fix for reconnecting if the server is rebooted to improve robustness;
- Fix too-high dev fee to jh/clintar in source (this was fixed in the -b10 binaries, but I never pushed it to the source tree)
  (The bug:  Instead of donating 0.25% to each of them and subtracting 0.5% to me, it subtracted 0.5% and then donated the full amount to each person)
- Remove unneeded use of atomic header file to simplify build process with older gcc

 -Dave

Hi Dave,

Any plans to add stratum to your miner or add your blazing fast engine to the default miner that does support stratum?

I'm really curious because our stratum pool will launch today.

Thanks!

Fastest, for now, is mine:  http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~dga/crypto/ric/

I should be pushing an update in a few hours.  Dev fee is 7% now as discussed earlier, will be chopped down and open sourced with no fee within a few days.  Only xptMiner is compatible with ypool at this point, to my knowledge.

Aha, thanks for your swift reply.

Your compilation problem is because of an STL issue - you may be missing a -I to where clang has its STL, or are using an out of date version.

If it's any help for debugging, the same is done when I use g++4-9 or icpc instead of g++ (it's 4.8 by default in my system).

Quote
Are you on a mac?  I haven't tried getting xptminer built on mine, but I could give it a go if that's why you're having troubles with it.

Nope, I'm on a linux / wolfdale setup, just looking to optimize through compilation with gcc-4.9, icc, clang, clang++, g++-4.9 and icpc.


The codebase you're using is about 8x slower than the binary release of mine.  No amount of compiler help will make it worthwhile.  But figuring out the issues you're working on will help when I open source mine - which is going to happen a little sooner than I anticipated. Smiley  Stay tuned.

icc, in particular, might help a fair bit, but the bulk of the time is spent in GMP -- so if you want to do yourself a favor, get a super-tuned install of gmp.

I did throw a little ispc at it, but I've removed it for the open source version because (a)  I optimized around the need for what I'd been doing;  and (b)  I didn't want to complicate the build.

There's a nice place where you could throw some ispc in there, though, if you feel like it.  But it needs some architectural changes first.

I am preparing a pool with the new stratum miner code that will have servers very fast servers across the US. Would love to have the support of your high performance miner to relieve the power that a single large pool has over this coin!

We will be looking forward to using your pool server. Hopefully it is open source so that we can easily add jh00's implementation of XPT (x.pushthrough) protocol and a tamper resistant developer's fee feature to it.

Of course it'll be open source, the idea is to have as many pools open as possible in order to bring decentralization and more people interested in RIC.
This should also set us appart from XPM which, as far as I know, doesn't have an open source pool implementation.

The protocol I'm trying is stratum, only some field lengths are modified (time, nonce). I already updated the cpuminer for this (not officially released because I couldn't test it yet-  ie it probably doesn't work). I you -or anyone- could later add support for XPT it would be cool.


Excellent! We'll be operating a geographically redundant pool that should be very resistant to DDOS attacks, etc.
