Here's a few notes:
  • Chris was able to move the share tables to the Intel PRO 960 disks. Not only are they 7 times faster than 850 disks, they have no parity calculations because they are a RAID 1. The change may have made some difference in performance.
  • Chris increased the minimum pool difficulty. The difficulty will be lowered when the new release is put out.
  • I've actually gotten the new release through manual testing completely, almost a week ahead of schedule. I'll now start writing automated tests to ensure that the money credited to miners exactly matches that credited using the old code.
