Chris is still continuing with the release. As expected, there are issues, but he's making progess and we're going to be able to try to restart for good soon.

We apologize for the issues. This is the second of the four major changes that are needed to fully parallelize the mining server for unlimited use. The first was the hardware improvements, which we completed on Wednesday. This second step is the major architectural changes necessary for parallel operations, and probably represents just as much change as when we released multiple algorithms back in April.

We'll keep everyone updated as we restart, which will probably be within the hour.

This downtime has concluded. We are now running the parallel code, with many fewer issues having been encountered than expected. Only one mining server is running, because the goal of this release was simply to prove that the architecture worked, without enabling additional servers.

That's two down, and two to go! Thanks for your continued patience with these major upgrades! Chris will be making an announcement when the Postgres 10 upgrade will be occurring in a few days.

I seem to be connected, but with 0% efficiency... Is that me or the pool?
