There we go, field 8!

not yet. hmm.

Heh, I forgot the details
Fireduck
2019-01-02 00:54:20
But it will do it's thing soon
Fireduck
2019-01-02 00:54:43
what are the details? :slightly_smiling_face:
fydel
2019-01-02 00:57:31
When it shows as next field activated

five giga, someone is on a death spurt
Rotonen
2019-01-02 01:07:25
This is the second value, 40.803 currently
mjay
2019-01-02 01:07:40
still some time left until field 8 activates
mjay
2019-01-02 01:07:54
soon enough
Rotonen
2019-01-02 01:08:16
like another day
mjay
2019-01-02 01:09:10
depends on the hashrate growth
Rotonen
2019-01-02 01:10:03
i guess around 12 hours if the hashrate stays on that level.
fydel
2019-01-02 01:11:14
looking forwards to the hashrate crash
Rotonen
2019-01-02 01:11:31
Field 7 722
mjay
2019-01-02 01:11:35
it will crash hard
mjay
2019-01-02 01:11:42
unless someone hijacked a small-medium data centre
Rotonen
2019-01-02 01:11:45
oh well, then
Rotonen
2019-01-02 01:13:04
they are still using field 7 for most of the mining
mjay
2019-01-02 01:13:18
depends on if they are able to switch to field 8
mjay
2019-01-02 01:13:28
(I doubt it)
mjay
2019-01-02 01:14:11
could be just orchestrating around cloud credit offerings like the previous spurt seemed to be
Rotonen
2019-01-02 01:14:16
google and alibaba are at least pretty generous
Rotonen
2019-01-02 01:15:07
I'll need to retool for field 8 over here
Fireduck
2019-01-02 01:21:10
Doubling of the hash rate in the last 18 hours. Geez. Doubling of the price would be nice.
aikida3k
2019-01-02 01:22:31
I think it'll be healthy to goto a higher field
Clueless
2019-01-02 01:23:54
I expect it to wash out some guys; it's harder to find cloud servers with over 256 GB
aikida3k
2019-01-02 01:24:03
At a reasonable cost

6 seeds, 1 peer, all good
Clueless
2019-01-02 02:43:39
@Fireduck, wouldn't you have to move your Arktika servers onto their own private network? It would use a lot of bandwidth having to hop networks, wouldn't it?
aikida3k
2019-01-02 02:44:33
I run it on my own lan
Fireduck
2019-01-02 02:45:04
If your cloud provider has a high capacity interconnect and don't charge for it, you are good
Fireduck
2019-01-02 02:45:09
I am wondering how realistic Arktika is as a hosted solution
aikida3k
2019-01-02 02:45:31
As long as you keep it in one data center it should be fine
Fireduck
2019-01-02 02:46:51
Something to think about for the future. I have one more node to add before my lans are maxed.
aikida3k
2019-01-02 02:47:34
hash rate is up almost another 10% in roughly the last hour or so
aikida3k
2019-01-02 10:12:02
I'll delete the snowfield 7 files from my seednodes once it switches
mjay

Rotonen
2019-01-02 10:29:10
so someone was serious `difficulty (avg): 41.220 (40.988)`
Rotonen

que confetti
Rotonen
2019-01-02 10:46:56
oh it moves ever so slow, oh well `(40.990)`
Rotonen
2019-01-02 11:40:52
and bugbear just kicked in
Rotonen
2019-01-02 12:41:18
I guess the mainnet is down.
samspeed
2019-01-02 12:43:03
it is not
Rotonen
2019-01-02 12:53:43
my node unable sync data....
samspeed
2019-01-02 12:57:22
its just the last block thats quite old
mjay
2019-01-02 12:57:37
give it some time to adjust difficulty
mjay
2019-01-02 12:58:24
Mee to.....
Pharaoh
2019-01-02 13:01:52
samspeed
2019-01-02 13:04:19
the nethash went down as the new field kicked in and the block density is going to be lower until the difficulty adjusts
Rotonen
2019-01-02 13:05:02
this is expected, keep mining
Rotonen
2019-01-02 13:52:44
it'll probably take like a full day to adjust down, which is good, as it creates less of a wolf pack situation at field switches
Rotonen
2019-01-02 13:52:56
but yes, that is a flipside positive
Rotonen
2019-01-02 15:51:00
Yep. Hopefully the slow to react will be helpful when snowblossom I'd forked into snow cash, lightning snow, yellowsnow and of course sdv (ducks vision).
Fireduck
2019-01-02 15:51:17
I might keep the miners hopping around slow
Fireduck
2019-01-02 16:49:26
I can help you produce yellowsnow

@Tilian @Fireduck
As expected, they prefer us to take one bip44 index, use 1 for testnet, and use another path entirely for identity stuff
Clueless
2019-01-02 19:45:06
ok, that is fine
Fireduck
2019-01-02 22:21:10
@Fireduck never enable dedup on ZFS, ever.
Clueless

Fireduck
2019-01-02 22:24:57
well, it impacts IOPs performance soo much, it's causing my entire VM stack to crash on every torrent move operation
Clueless
2019-01-02 22:25:16
yeah
Fireduck
2019-01-02 22:25:24
you tried to bring the world of IO into one file system
Fireduck
2019-01-02 22:25:31
and a really complex file system at that
Fireduck
2019-01-02 22:39:39
@Clueless you're just running it at less ram than it is designed for
Rotonen
2019-01-02 22:40:52
the dedup table is 320 bytes per block
Rotonen
2019-01-02 22:40:57
48GB RAM :P
Clueless
2019-01-02 22:41:04
also do not use 512 byte block devices
Rotonen
2019-01-02 22:41:09
I suppose I could double that
Clueless
2019-01-02 22:41:13
4096 blocks help a ton
Rotonen
2019-01-02 22:41:15
4K blocks
Clueless
2019-01-02 22:41:22
native or emulated?
Rotonen
2019-01-02 22:41:25
and ashift=12 ?
Rotonen
2019-01-02 22:41:30
native
Clueless
2019-01-02 22:41:36
no ashift
Clueless
2019-01-02 22:42:06
redo
Rotonen
2019-01-02 22:42:24
you'll cut the dedup table cost by a factor of 4
Rotonen
2019-01-02 22:42:47
@Rotonen how do you suggest redoing it? :P
Clueless
2019-01-02 22:43:04
drop the data or get equivalent hardware :stuck_out_tongue:
Rotonen
2019-01-02 22:43:20
@Rotonen the good news is I only had dedup on while I torrented snowblossom fields.
so deleting them should get rid of the dedup table size and overhead
Clueless
2019-01-02 22:43:37
dunno about ashift
Clueless
2019-01-02 22:43:50
ashift is only settable at pool creation time
Rotonen
2019-01-02 22:44:01
that's the block size for the pool
Rotonen
2019-01-02 22:44:11
A filesytem is just a database.
Fireduck
2019-01-02 22:44:11
it defaults to 9, which is 512 bytes, 12 is 4096 bytes
Rotonen
2019-01-02 22:44:19
Never trust a database.
Fireduck
2019-01-02 22:44:30
wtf would they default to 512 bytes, that's absur
Clueless
2019-01-02 22:44:33
4k is typical
Clueless
2019-01-02 22:44:49
an easy gotcha to see if you ever went to an oracle training on it or not :stuck_out_tongue:
Rotonen
2019-01-02 22:45:24
For this data set you want a dedup of like 16mb
Fireduck
2019-01-02 22:45:33
@Rotonen the way I handle it is dumping that specific filesystem and restoring it with the proper settings
Clueless
2019-01-02 22:47:51
zfs on linux seems to sniff that at runtime, so if your hardware is not lying, you might be lucky on that one
Rotonen
2019-01-02 22:47:58
but you should be able to see it in your pool data
Rotonen
2019-01-02 22:48:54
yeah, listed in `zpool get all`
Rotonen
2019-01-02 22:50:38
or if not listed as something explicitly set, could be something you can fish out via `zdb -C`, might have to point at the actual pool
Rotonen
2019-01-02 22:50:53
@Rotonen waiting on it to finish whatever it's doing on boot.
Clueless
2019-01-02 22:50:56

txg_sync
Clueless
2019-01-02 22:51:18
that'll take a while
Rotonen
2019-01-02 22:51:45
but mind you, you need to have the `-o ashift=12` flag on both create and add commands, just to not have it too easy to do right :smile:
