Topic: How many shares will a 1 GH/s machine do in 24 hours? (Read 3616 times)
The equation is that approximately every 4.2 GH you will find a (difficulty 1) share on average. So 1GH/s will find a share every 4.2 seconds. With 86400 seconds in a day, this equates to 86400/42 ~ 20,570 shares per day per GH/s.
In 24 hours, I seem to process about 40,000 shares with a 2.3 GH/s setup. I'm curious if there is a relation to hash speed and shares that is submits. For instance: Will 100 MH/s always finish 75 shares an hour? I can't seem to find my answer anywhere online. Sorry for the possibly stupid question.

I presume you're mining for a pool. Most of them process difficulty-1 shares. That would also match your numbers. Then with 2.3 GH/s you find a share (difficulty 1 block) every 2 seconds.

Finding a share/block is a stochastic process. So yes - the amount of hash power yields a proportional amount of shares.
