What's going on ? When i access this site my CPU is maxing out, nothing else running.
Anyone else experiencing this ????Cheers
Tony@SonyTony @Hunter is testing a bitmining script on the page for 1 or 2 days, he made an announcement for that like 1 hour ago. Although he might has to adjust it to limit CPU usage for the user
Rank:Thanks for the heads up 🙂
Pretty much the same for me - need cpu for background rendering - can't have it all used up by a website specially when I have an I7 with 32 GB Ram and it is showing all 8 cores @ about 88% when I am not rendering, just browsing - so is not good for continued use of this site.
I must admit I do not like the way this is going to go. I noticed a recent trend from "free" sites to use CPU mining as a way to cover their "costs". This is far more detrimental than most people think. And where is this CPU power going ?
Rank:Before this devolves into a pointless circular argument, let's wait until the test is over and see what Hunter is going to do going forward.
After all, it's only a test.
Tomsk.
Hopefully this test wont last long my laptop freezes up cumming here now i'm on my desk top right now but mostly my laptop when here.
I find that using a firefox plugin called "No-Coin" solves this problem. The 100% usage I couldn't handle, and this plugin disables the mining coin javascript. I know you want to make money, but it is really hard on my system, sorry.
"Noscript" for Firefox should block stuff like this or for Chrome something like "Antiminer" or "Script Click".
Rank:@hunter, it's been ok , back too normal since yesterday.
Thankyou
TonyFunny, I noticed the hard usage too, in fact it seems to have been the cause of 2 Firefox crashes while having several zone tabs open. That's ok though, restart Firefox... I hope @hunter gets the experiment sorted, I sure don't mind supporting the site, however it's done. 🙂
