question....i am plotting back up to the 5 TB that we were using before, currently at around 800 Gb and adding every day. but, this time around something is odd. for example, using the standard 1.16 version of the miner, and 780 GB on two separate drives, about 5% of the time one of my submitted DL's comes back way off. i will submit something like 1 day and the pool server will kick back something like a year on the same nonce.
the plots were all done the same as every other time, using xplotter, straight from the burst wallet..the method i use is on a clean, formatted drive i create two folders, one called "mine" and the other called "plot". i use xplotter from the master hard drive to create plots in the plots folder and when one is done, it is copied to the mine folder, that way i can mine the one folder without getting errors from the unfinished plot in progress.
but, this is from just a few minutes back

yes, i do have fast rec'v set to true in the conf, but these errors happened before that was changed, this is pretty consistent over the last two weeks.
i do get dl's that match the amount of plotted hd...got 11 secs earlier today, 3 seconds in the morning, and the other dl's are anywhere from an hour to six months, which is about right, but what could be creating these occasional errors?
