hey crysx - I did some testing around the pool and the miner on SIGT. Used your miner on your pool for couple of weeks, then used ccminer 2.2 on your pool for couple of days and compared results with mining on supernova.
my findings:
- Crashes: It seems to me that the crashes are caused by the pool not the miner. This became evident when I used ccminer on your pool. Had 2 crashes the last day alone. I guess DDos attacks may be part of it.
- Earnings: This one is dubious, as the luck and difficulty, as well as pool size etc are never equal to make apples to apples comparison. However, I can say that overall, I was more "lucky" mining on supernova.
- API: You already discussed your position on this, so I just want to say, we really need this. Specially when you are looking for the sweet spot on temps/performance with a 7 card rig.
Looking forward testing the new miner when out.
thats good ...
we are very appreciative such tests ...
crashes - we block ip addresses as they come from ddos attacks ... ALL pools are susceptible to such attacks - so we can only block as they come ... ocminer does not share anything from his pools - especially blocked ip addresses ( blacklist ) - so suprnova has a big advantage there from most other pool ... as well as the fact that ocminer is a damn good dev and has been doing this for a LONG time ... but that crashes in CWIgm are varied - and the disconnection reconnection messes with its stability ... this is a known issue ( many reported in testing ) and we have been working on this for CWIgm-0.9.9 ... we hope we have a much more stable miner in the next test release ...
earning - well ... what can i say that i already havent said ( or others have said ) ... this is a very general subject - even tho the components of this subject is very specific ... the timeframe matter much also - which you didnt specify - as well as the when it was mined ... when we had mining at 200gh - our 'luck' was much higher than now ... so really - its a 'much of a muchness'
... no doubt tho - suprnova has the largest hashrate - and will work in much the same leverage as any pool with massive hashrate ... so 'luck' is more on the side of the larger pools - but not always ... remember also - when theFARM is fully built - it is dedicated to the CWI-Pool system and will be made available to that alone ... at the moment - its very small and in the LONG process of the rebuild ...
api ... there is a very good reason why we will not immediately build an api - if ever ... this will come to light in the coming revision of CWIgm - as the first stages of what we have been working on is revealed ...
tanx again ...
