Thanks so much ComputerGenie-Hero-God. My question post contains actual useful data, probably more than the majority on the forum. Especially compared to your average of more than 3 posts per day for the last 550+ days consisting of mostly one line remarks offering either no useful information or just snarky comments to contribute to "hero" status. My post was intended to gain insight and information by presenting actual data from actual mining. I assume, from your heroic achievement of smarty one liners for over 500 days, that your "1/4 page post" comment is because that you suffer short attention span and are unable to understand the post because it has too much details needing a tiny amount of thought process to digest.
If you are unable to comprehend the post then you should have just passed on the post and keep snarky remarks to yourself. There's nothing wrong with the post, unless you can't concentrate long enough to read more than one sentence, and it has good useful information. From your attitude I assume you have nothing useful to add, and obviously I'm not counting useless comments like add "succinct questions actually related to mining". It would appear you never read the post (short attention span) or, just as likely, don't understand relating specific results to general trends. It's in there but you have to read and understand the post. Being a "Hero" by posting hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of one liner useless smarty comments doesn't impress me. If you have any actual information to share then please do, otherwise keep the useless one liner smart comments to yourself. But, knowing you are a "hero" spending a great deal of your day on this forum, I can't wait for the list of important posts you can dredge up to prove how wrong I am.
Now, if your reply was a just you warning me that everyone here can't understand what I wrote because you think they are the ones who suffer attention or comprehension problems, then I'll apologize. But I think you are dead wrong about the other forum members, many of whom should find your comments insulting as well. Sorry to be so blunt about it, but I'm not rewriting things into a series of one line hero-goldfish level posts. Oops, another 1/4 pager - sorry.
and so how does all that, relate to any of you questions on pools vs solo, setting difficulty, miner reboots etc.?
