Work Utility Low

Post by banjags » Thu Oct 09, 2014 4:31 pm

I am running CGMiner with 3 Zeus Thunder X3. My WU is running around 64000/m. On most other pools that number will be a pretty stead 78000/m

Just an FYI. Thanks. Things are looking great. A suggestion have the earn page auto update

I believe this is due to our stratum server changing coins so frequently that your miner is spending a lot of time switching to new work. We are working right now to try reducing the frequency of switching, but at some point we won't reduce it further. Our goal is to balance profitability and mining efficiency; for example if we can get a 20% higher payout per hashrate while having miners produce 15% less hashrate, then that is what we will stick with.

I believe 4.3.5 if I remember correctly. Frequent switching would do that. My efficiency is coming in quite low as well at 73.81%

I fixed the rejected shares issue. Please check your efficiency again and see if it has increased.
