Here's a few bullet points for this morning:
- Our major accomplishment last night was that we discovered why some coins had higher orphan rates than expected. It turns out that blocks that were larger than Twisted's default length of 16384 characters were dropped, and therefore we mined off the previous block. We rolled out a fix for that, and think that it will significantly improve profitability by more than 10%, starting immediately.
- We are aware of the following issues: some miners seeing forfeited balances, payouts in the wrong coin, the miner hashrate charts being missing, and a slightly suboptimal coin assignment under some circumstances in the mining server. These are all issues Chris is going to begin with when he gets up. After resolving these issues, Chris will correct balances for the portion of miners who were affected.
