Peercoin on Raspberry Pi

Awesome, starting the daemon now to download the blockchain. :) About the blockchain, there is no bootstrap.dat available, is there?

No, but I’ll package it soon for Peerbox.

To check, just ssh into the box and run uptime.
Im really interested in the last three numbers.[/quote]

0.40, 0.41, 0.41[/quote]

Hi Marizele,

Could you please share what those three numbers mean?

Or, is anyone else willing to educate me on this?

Thanks, :slight_smile:

@peerchemist thanks for the link which describes cpu load averages in a clear and easy to understand manner :slight_smile:

For anyone who doesn’t already know here it is in an even smaller nutshell. The three numbers are cpu load averages over one, five and fifteen minutes. Smaller numbers are better. A load average of 1.0 is a single core cpu at full capacity. Numbers higher than 1.0 mean data is backing up and being delayed. Good practice is to keep the numbers at 0.7 or below so there is spare unused cpu capacity. The ~0.4 results that irritant reported mean that the Raspberry Pi has much more compute capacity than needed to run a Peercoin full node. :slight_smile:

Numbers should be even lower with Peerbox, since it is lighter then classic Raspbian installation.
If someone can post Peerbox numbers please?


Am I too late?

You are definitely Not too late :slight_smile: The program is going strong! Congratulations! :slight_smile:

Right on! ;D

I’m glad to be a part of the program. 8)

On Peerbox v0.19: 0.31, 0.26, 0.29

Extremely fun to set up.

Thanks river333 in advance.

Great to hear. Tip sent :slight_smile:

I changed the original post so this project is now ready to move to peer4commit, and I also made a few other changes. I would appreciate it if others can check through the post for errors.

The biggest change is that an email address is now necessary to receive your tip. You no longer need to post a PPC address.

I put together a short video on the Chronos Crypto Youtube Channel to help get the word out about this promotion.

Awesome, thanks Chronos! :slight_smile:

hello talk,my first post. ;D

Congratulations to Asarian, first tip received through peer4commit by the way. Originally posted on reddit here: http://www.reddit.com/r/peercoin/comments/258aoo/peercoin_on_raspberry_pi_get_10_ppc_for_setting/cjfjztg
