BtcAgent is a kind of stratum proxy which use customize protocol to communicate with the pool. It's very efficient and designed for huge mining farm. And you still can find each miner at the pool.
- With 10,000 miners:
- Bandwith: less than 150kbps
- Memory: less than 64MBytes
- CPU: 1 Core
It's so efficient and we are going to build it at a ARM platform like Open-WRT. So people could use WiFi-Route as the stratum proxy, it's very cool and easy to manange.
Note:
- This is still a testbed and work in progress, all things could be changed.
- Now it's could only work with
btcpool.

recommand to use supervisor to manage it
$ apt-get install -y supervisor
$ cp /work/btcagent/install/agent.conf /etc/supervisor/conf.d/
$ supervisorctl
supervisor> reread
agent: available
supervisor> update
agent: added process group
