Hi guys,
Let's say I can point a couple of D3 to Prohashing for only for 30 minutes to 1 hour per day. How efficient would this be, compared with full time mining? Would it generate more orphans? Proportionally I would receive the same payout as 24h mining?
Thanks guys!

Why would you generate more orphans?

Re: X11 short term mining efficiency
whether you stop after 1 hour, 5 hours or 3 days, you are only missing that last cut off point.
Now if you want to compare mining here every OTHER hour to just straight mining for 12 hours in a row, I can pretty much tell you that one.
The 12 disconnects will drop the work in progress and the single long run wont drop except the last work load when you quit.

Imagine that I'm mining in a place where my electricity is not stable (my miners restart a lot) and I have hypothetically those 12 disconnects per day. How would this affect the earnings?

Re: X11 short term mining efficiency
Hardly at all. Very little impact I would imagine.
If you are solo mining and in the middle, you could drop out of a block you might have found and it could have cost you $1200. The odds of that round being found and being the one you disconnected from instead of finding..probably lottery winning odds on powerball.
If you are in the pool you are getting like a penny every 10 seconds or whatever, if you disconnect and reconnect you may have missed out on 1 extra penny at most, plus all the rest of the pennies the whole time you are offline not mining.
If the miners are just restarting its fine, the pool will reset and go offline and come back up every so often so your miners even if working right would still restart the mining service on the pool a few times a day anyways. It's normal and fine. If the electric isn't stable they do have UPS that can regulate the power and make it more stable and supply a 2-5 min window of reserve power for mini brownouts and power flickers.

Actually this miners are in Africa and I guess they need to invest in a diesel generator
Thank you so much for clarifying.
