wtf my server went from 17564 pps to 6640 pps whats wrong ?



Quote from: bidji29 on July 21, 2013, 04:32:37 PM
We are at DIFF 9 !

PPS -30%

The rate of block seems to have lower drastically too
We are at 2block/min now.

EDIT : still ~2-3block/min like before it seem

Difficulty integer changes result in a globally lower primerate.

OK, but I have so bad luck or it's most suck coin ever?!

I mine over 70 hours and I found 10 blocks (all immature...). Today all was changed to orphan and was delete from my wallet... It's really not nice and completly demotivated...

You can try to break my badluck with any donation to XPM: AYt9xqb8vCDEQoL6W1hKxJmLwwQ6BvjFA6

Was the wallet able to synchronize before you started mining? Or did it stay at "X days behind" on the bottom of Bitcoin-qt? I'm guessing you mined them all without a current blockchain and then today you were able to download the blockchain and the wallet found out that you found those blocks seperate from the blockchain.

people gave to make two conversions to buy a 69 cent track?

take a gamble, just price each in primecoin and bitcoin.... 0.01 btc or whatever that translates to in prime coins...  you have no costs that need to be denominated in dollars, make it easy for us to send you our bitcoins or prime coins! Smiley I'm definetly not opening an excel workbook to figure out XPM to BTC to BTC to USD just to buy a song i don't know if i'd like... but i'll send a token amount of BTC or XPM in order to support the economy and an artist!

When someone PMs me, I'll calculate the price, generate a new address, and respond "send exactly ___ XPM to A____________", and I'm fine with people sending PMs and changing their minds just to see the price.

Also, if you don't know if you'll like it, the songs are up in full length HD on YouTube, so you can know exactly what you're buying before you buy it.

If I have an earlier build (mod) and dl and run the latest official version, will it leave my existing coins intact?  Stupid question I know but better safe than sorry.

Yes, your coins are stored in the wallet.dat file, which simply stores all of the private keys kept in your Primecoin wallet. These private keys will always stay the same, and updating won't change anything about how the wallet.dat works. And if an update ever does change the wallet.dat format, it will be backwards-compatible. Your existing coins will stay exactly the same.

Re: [XPM] [ANN] Primecoin High Performance

How do you compile the qt GUI in Linux? I'm trying with just changing this pkgbuild from the AUR to your git instead of the master, and everything works up until running qmake-qt4, where it just spits out the qmake-qt4 usage. It's worked perfectly with /primecoin/primecoin, but not with /mikaelh2/primecoin.

Edit: Figured it out, because there's also a bitcoin-qt-win64.pro, you need to specify "qmake-qt4 bitcoin-qt.pro" rather than just "qmake-qt4" alone.

Here's another binary I've made which targets simply x86-64 processors. This SHOULD work over a wider range of processors than my earlier releases. It may not work on 32-bit OSes (not sure).

Try using -debug and -printtarget and post the ERROR messages about block #3 being rejected again

This gave me a little hint. FYI sunny, the code this was built from is here, it is slightly modified from your latest commit to include some additional suggested optimizations from Mike270. https://github.com/Zalfrin/primecoin

There may be a bug in the way the "phash" variable is replacing "pblock->GetHeaderHash();". Maybe phash needs to be updated within the loop starting on line 4640 of main.cpp

I'm also suck at 2 blocks 3 days behind.. any thoughts?

Try running these commands in the console:
Code:
addnode 94.23.215.174 add
addnode 87.98.146.72 add

i thought setgenerate true  without any "x" meant it used eight cores...   maybe he just needs to wait a while before the client shows the pps?  wen i started mining through the client the first time it took twenty minutes to show up any speeds at all


"setgenerate true" uses how many physical cores you have in your machine, not infinity, and not 8.

What I meant was infinity is the software limit. The software limit, when set to -1, will never be lower than the number of cores you have, no matter how many cores you have.

use setgenerate true 2

or 4 for 4 cores.. use the number of physical cores you have.. without the "-"

That shouldn't fix anything. -1 just means ∞, or rather, no limit.

Bitcoin is Bitcoin. It has properties of a commodity, currency and a payment processor.

+1. It's often compared to gold, fiat currencies like the USD, and PayPal. Classifying it as only one of those is improper.

Is there really no way of changing your Rewards Address?

My rewards address is hooked up to an InstaWallet which I still have access to but I'm afraid InstaWallet may turn rogue. Although, that's an assumption.

Having a way of changing it would be dangerous as the accounts aren't password protected, and anyone can look at the blockchain and find what your deposit address is.

I have a question: How are you going to handle all the deflation that's to come with Bitcoin? Not too long from now, all the hardware will be worth half the bitcoins it's worth now. That will defenitely slow it down, maybe even enough to destroy the company.

Pyramining:

I noticed that it is possible to nullify everyone else's referral links without depositing BTC. I think this could become a problem if it already hasn't.

If referrals would only expire once BTC are deposited, it might keep everyone a little bit more honest.

I think it would be kind of cheap if your account said it had a 10% and then right as you're about to deposit some BTC it's 5%.

Obligatory referral links:

there are password strength estimators and articles on how to make a strong password all over the web.  Google is your friend.

Don't trust any random strong password test. I would make sure it's an https connection, and even then, try switching out a few letters and numbers just to make sure. I know Microsoft has a really simple one.

edit - or you could download software from a page like this http://www.passwordmeter.com/
if you really want to be extra cautious you can disconnect your Internet while using it.

Edit 2 - this one's cool. I'd make sure it's at least a few thousand years because the website looks pretty dated. http://lastbit.com/pswcalc.asp
