What to do with & ?

artfulcat

Pool: https://featherpool.com
Miner: cgminer.

I see a lot of lines with & .
What does this mean? How to fix it?
When minied LTÐ¡ I have not seen such lines…

So it’s OK, or a problem?

Honestly, I have no answer for you. I’ve not ever encountered that.
But, I’d be very worried for that Invalid share count. That’s extremely high and points to a lot of ‘invalid’ shares from your client.
How does your cgminer look, how many stale/rejected/hw values ?

HW = 0! But (second screen +3 minutes):

That tells me that there’s issues with the pools stability at the moment, work it’s dishing out to you is becoming stale (rejected or worthless) before you’re getting chance to return the result.

It doesn’t seem you’re alone with issues on featherpool.com at present, my best advice is to read up on some of the threads in the ‘Miners’ part of this forum and sit patient for awhile… Sorry x:

I’ve got the same problem.
Even if my valid/invalid shares ratio is a bit better (Valid: 19366, Invalid: 3673), the amount of ftc I recieve is twice lower than it should be.

Have you tried using another pool? If you do not get the errors with the same settings in another pool, i would assume it’s potentially a pool or network issue…

Sounds a good idea, slowly narrow down the issue by eliminating variables.

So… May be solve:
“ÐÐ¾ Ð¿Ð¾ Ñ„Ð°ÐºÑ‚Ñƒ Ð¿Ð¾Ð¼Ð¾Ð³Ð»Ð¾ Ð¸Ð¼ÐµÐ½Ð½Ð¾ -s, Ð° Ð½Ðµ -E. Ð˜ Ð² readme Ð¿Ð¾ cgminer Ð½Ð°Ð¿Ð¸ÑÐ°Ð½Ð¾:
–scan-time|-s Upper bound on time spent scanning current work, in seconds (default: 60)
–expiry|-E Upper bound on how many seconds after getting work we consider a share from it stale (default: 120)”

Set “-s 5” and R=1/6*A.
Set “-s 5 -E 20” and R=1/10*A.

Ðž! F@##! Idiot!! =)

Stratum: stratum+tcp://featherpool.com:9998
Longpoll: http://featherpool.com:9999 - i’m use…

If set Stratum R=(1-5)%*A.

I’ve just started mining on fcpool.com using long polling and am getting quite a few share with; ‘rejected … (prevhash-stale)’ Would using stratum help solve this?

Possibly, but I think the popularity of FTC is increasing quicker and faster than any of the pools hardware can take at the moment. Compared to yesterday my rejection rate is a good 500% more than it was.

fcpool don’t offer stratum apparently. I mined with them for a few hours and still no payout but with over 1000 unpaid shares. Also I noitced my GPU temps would suddenly drop occasionally but cgminer was not showing any errors. This time the temps on my GPU dropped for a long time so I switched to another pool where I didn’t have this issue.

If you don’t have a lot of khashes is it better to mine on a pool with fewer miners and fewer big khash miners?
