Re: wolfey – I will look into that cpuminer setup, it is definitely way better than the current setup I have where my seeds are pulling 50-60 watts each, this seems to directly address that issue, but I still would really like a way to monitor the hashrates of the seeds from my controller, and from what I understand cpu miner doesn’t do that….
Thanks again for the help its definitely appreciated... my other 7 seeds showed up today bringing me to 10 total, ill be playing with them tonight and report back
Righty 'O'...
I agree and I had the same issue when I first started using cpuminer. No local hash rate.
But I decided the only real reason for monitoring the local hash rate is for testing purposes.
There's plenty of specs' out here that tell us what the local hash rates are at x frequency.
It's a raw figure. It's accurate but,,,, the local hash rate doesn't mean spit where the mining pools are concerned.
ONLY there is where your hash rate means something! It means, not just how hashy your hashers are hashing but it means how much money you're making from that pool as the hash rates given are averaged over all of your miners and divided accordingly across the total number if miners you have hashing away.
So, I am happy to see my hash rates where they count. At the mining pool.
And don't let others make you think that the pool's hash rates are completely inaccurate or false or hyped.
They aren't. They are simply the average rates, which is what you really want to see anyway.
After all, these things are made to make us money. Not give us homework!
