Not sure if it means anything, but I switched all my rigs over to stratum (from eustratum), and since doing so I've not had any idle worker emails at all, and the full hash rate is now showing constant again. is it possible it's an eustratum issue only?

Peace.

EDIT: That's using the -1 vardiff parameter too.

Hi abrcadabra,

We tried that, see above. Woke up this morning to an inbox full of worker idle notification emails......

Hi Organ,

Rig 1 = 1.5 gig
Rig 2 =  2 gig
Rig 3 = 1.3 gig

All are gpu rigs running latest cgminer. I usually use eustratum as that's the closest with the lowest ping time for me (but I have noticed it has almost doubled lately), and it's been fine for months, but the last few days I'm getting a constant flow of worker idle notifications no matter what server I use. I've tried adjusting the vardiff to 1, 2 & briefly to 3 but it makes no difference. When another user said he had the same problem I presumed it was a server issue, but now I'm beginning to think it's something at my end, I'm not sure.

OK, well it can't be vardiff that's triggering the emails - at D1 for Rig 3 should usually be submitting between 10 and 27 shares per minute. The chance of submitting none in that time is vanishingly small.

Best of luck finding a fix - should be a fun geek out

Something wrong with the site or pool? My workers are submitting shares, but that isn't being reflected on the website. In fact, the displayed pool hashrate has been swinging between 0 and 5000ghps for the past 20 minutes or so.

About 1/3 of the workers on the The Hall of Fame 'current round' are showing 0 (or at least unusually small compared to their position on the list) hashrate as well.

That was only for about 10 minutes.  Seems the website is not connecting/getting stats from mining nodes, but mining node are running fine.

EDIT: Might have spoken too soon.  Seems pool hashrate stats are all over the place.  I've messaged Graet.

here in EU the same...

I have been looking into the issue the last 2 days, and I have found some of the problems with it.. All shares are accounted for, just some major delays, and I'm still digging to ease up some of these delays.

You mispelled great












It's Graet 

Just an update.  I have found a few more ways to ease up the delays in the core of the shares accounting section.  I do believe that I have gotten the idle worker notification issue resolved for the time being. 

Please let us know if there are any more notifications that go out when your miner is still working perfectly fine.
