17:09:26 <sech1> Rucknium[m] FYI: there has been a proposal on how to reduce P2Pool bloat: https://github.com/SChernykh/p2pool/issues/221 - I plan to implement it and it will go live in March
17:53:32 <Rucknium[m]> sech1: Nice. Is there an estimate for how it could affect the number of p2pool coinbase outputs? Or maybe it's my job to generate an estimate.
17:55:51 <sech1> My rough estimate that at 200 MH/s P2Pool and 2.5 GH/s Monero network, PPLNS window will shrink to 150 blocks, so no more than 150 miners paid in each block
17:56:12 <sech1> in reality it will be closer to 50 miners paid because of uneven miner hashrate distribution
17:57:02 <sech1> or rather 300 blocks because I want PPLNS window cumulative difficulty <= 2x Monero difficulty
17:57:29 <sech1> you can probably check how many different wallets the last 300 blocks have on average
17:58:23 <sech1> so yeah, it will reduce the number of P2Pool outputs a lot. I can't give the number now
18:02:14 <Rucknium[m]> 👍️ The mean number of coinbase outputs per p2pool block for Oct-Dec was 128. Median was 113. Max: 615. This include the main p2pool and p2pool-mini.
18:05:24 <sech1> Right now there are 103 miners in PPLNS window on main p2pool. If I count only the latest 300 blocks, it's 38 miners.
18:05:50 <sech1> so it will be 2-3 times fewer outputs from main p2pool
18:06:03 <sech1> p2pool-mini will not be affected because it has too low hashrate
18:07:52 <sech1> and if p2pool gets even more hashrate, it will have even fewer outputs per block, so total number of p2pool outputs per day should hopefully stay the same or grow sub-linearly
18:13:55 <sech1> Almost linear: PPLNS window wallets = 104, last 300 blocks = 38 wallets, last 150 blocks = 22 wallets
18:14:18 <sech1> I mean total p2pool outputs per day should stay almost the same or grow just a little
21:45:53 <blankpage[m]> Is there a consensus upper limit on number of outputs for a coinbase transaction?
22:29:38 <UkoeHB> blankpage[m]: don’t think so, only an implied limit based on the tx size cap of 150kb (?)
22:32:22 <moneromoooo> The coinbase tx is not bound by this AFAIK.
22:32:37 <moneromoooo> It's never added to the txpool.
22:57:07 <sech1> Coinbase tx can be of any size, but there's median block weight that limits it in practice
22:57:49 <sech1> so it's possible to mine 300 Kb block that spends all 300 Kb on coinbase tx (~7900 outputs)
23:34:58 <UkoeHB> Ah
