Prohashing Mining Pool Forums

This is a heads up about a release that is coming on Wednesday, probably in the afternoon. There will be 10 minutes of mining downtime, but the website might be down a bit longer if we have problems during deployment. Here are the features in the release:

• Dramatic improvement in mining server startup time from 15m to 30s, so that future restarts will result in less downtime
• Reduction in memory usage to support 3% more miners
• Reduced mining server CPU usage to support 2% more miners
• 2-factor authentication
• Fixes for broken charts on the charts page
• Improvements to documentation and payout thresholds to reduce customer service inquiries
• New f_all_balance_updates WAMP function to get initial miner balances
• Addition of 64GB swap space to mining server to queue 4x as many shares in the case of a long-running database operation
• WAMP API now includes timestamps to assist subscribers when database is behind
• Implemented the WAMP API changes on the website to produce a live clock of how far behind the system is

My advice on the swap use SSD's in a raid-1, they will be fast enough (faster than a disk for sure) and since the extra swap load will put abnormal stress on them you are protected against a predictable wearing failure in a part.

if its 64 gb of devoted hdd i could only assume its an SSD unless its virtually allocated space on a harddrive
