Oh just want to ask if botnet possible on iops?

@Daeng not really. Do your insecure nanny cam have the storage or speed necessary to work on a mining field? I don't think so realistically.

hey all, having fun here learning and setting up mining. if i use Arktika do I need to download the chunked data or can it generate that?
cryptovape
2018-11-14 01:23:15
Download chunk
Fireduck
2018-11-14 01:23:42
If you are tight on bandwidth I can help you generate but it is really slow
Fireduck
2018-11-14 02:06:15
OK thanks, I can download.
cryptovape
2018-11-14 02:08:59
So if I even have just 16gb of RAM on my laptop, I can create a layer for mem and get better speeds?
cryptovape
2018-11-14 02:09:32
Not hugely better with 16gb
Fireduck
2018-11-14 02:09:55
SSD?
Fireduck
2018-11-14 02:10:29
yes, 256gb older nvme getting me 17kh/s
cryptovape
2018-11-14 02:22:23
You can also put some in memory with poolminer
Fireduck
2018-11-14 02:22:36
Arktika handles more complicated cases
Fireduck
2018-11-14 02:25:31
oh cool, I tried with poolminer and the -Xmx8g flag but got the "OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space" error
cryptovape
2018-11-14 02:25:44
so I assumed I needed Arktika
cryptovape
2018-11-14 02:26:19
try memfield_precache_gb=8
Fireduck
2018-11-14 02:26:25
and probably -Xmx12g
Fireduck
2018-11-14 02:26:48
ok great trying that now
cryptovape
2018-11-14 02:26:50
You'll have to play with values
Fireduck
2018-11-14 02:34:49
awesome that worked, funny thing is it says 17kh/s (4 min/share on hamster) but it already found 4 shares in a few minutes
cryptovape
2018-11-14 02:35:41
its using 91% of RAM :slightly_smiling_face:
cryptovape
2018-11-14 02:54:12
Heh
Fireduck
2018-11-14 02:54:40
It might still be worth trying arktika, he can do things like a signing more threads to various layers to max out your CPU harder.
Fireduck
2018-11-14 02:59:48
cool, I built him and will try him out. thanks for your help, gonna let the poolminer rock it overnight!
cryptovape
2018-11-14 03:48:21
Using windows or linux
Daeng
2018-11-14 15:19:32
hmm. no block on hamster pool for 24h and after update to 1.4.2.
fydel
2018-11-14 15:19:51
hours to block: 3.945 h
fydel
2018-11-14 15:20:12
maybe i am just very unlucky.
fydel
2018-11-14 18:01:43
you'll be happy to know my integration tests that I run with almost every check in creates a pool and mines blocks with it
Fireduck
2018-11-14 18:03:43
that still assumes the tests work **and** match actual behaviour (breaking software testing stacks is one of my more profitable hobbies)
Rotonen
2018-11-14 18:06:28
sure. Nothing is mocked, so they are pretty good integration tests.
Fireduck
2018-11-14 18:09:22
maybe you just broke the block remark mechanism or the block transaction broadcast
Rotonen
2018-11-14 18:09:45
always possible
Fireduck
2018-11-14 18:10:52
curious as to when the next hamster block is
Rotonen
2018-11-14 18:11:15
i’ll stay on 1.4.0, but not that it matters much :P
Rotonen
2018-11-14 18:32:23
still testing here with my hamsters.
fydel
2018-11-14 18:33:42
i am just hoping is it just bad luck.
fydel
2018-11-14 18:34:34
I would be shocked if it were anything other than that
Fireduck
2018-11-14 18:35:33
i think so. just bad luck.
fydel
2018-11-14 18:37:03
but hamsters are easily off frightened.
fydel
2018-11-14 18:41:32
in case anyone has picked up on it yet, i often point out very thin open ends
Rotonen
2018-11-14 18:44:02
what does that mean?
fydel
2018-11-14 18:44:37
Not sure I understood correctly, but I think he is saying he points out things that can possibly go wrong even if it isn't likely
Fireduck
2018-11-14 18:47:07
that makes sense.
