Does the information find in this link :
https://vtcpool.co.uk/p2pool-guide.htmlCan be apply to DRK ?
I think about this :
My worker is getting a lot of hardware errorsBecause of the short blocktimes on the p2pool sharechain, your workers need to receive much lower difficulty work than they would in a traditional pool. They must finish their work and submit it before it goes stale - on the main blockchain, this would happen every time a block was generated (every 2.5 minutes on average), wheras on p2pool a new block on the sharechain happens every 10 seconds on average. Very low difficulty work often causes hardware errors. You can prevent this by telling p2pool the minimum difficulty your worker requires. You do this by appending a string to the end of your username (your Vertcoin address) in your miners startup command. The formula for calculating what to append is:
Vertcoin Address + 0.00000116 * Hash Rate in KH/s
I test it on my workers, and i have better result, mean less DOA, from 1.6 to 0.76
Does it works or just an other factor ?
HW error happens when p2pool difficulty is zero(fresh start p2pool).
I have changed p2pool MIN_TARGET=o to MIN_TARGET=4.
Custom difficulty works well.
-u darkcoin_address+customdifficulty --> p2pool give minor customdifficulty.
And p2pool-drk has per worker difficuly like normal stratum pool.
(Normal p2pool use one diffculty for all miner)
(you can use customdifficulty, when you have problem. Normally don't need)
