Hey justaminer
I think you need to have a look at the way you mine the dev fee. for that minute the miner is working for you, th eminer disconnects from the pool i am mining completely and dissapears for that min that makes the shares go down on the pool and we lose money.
Hey man. That's how devfee works in general - miner works for developer some small period of time, in our case hsrminer_neoscrypt_fork mines to my address 1 minute per every hour. It doesn't matter if miner mines to the same pool or it connects to different pool to mine devfee - either way your address doesn't receive hashrate during devfee time period.
It also happens randomly that the miner is working and submitting shares but is disconnected from the pool and takes a couple of seconds to reconnect.
I would appreciate if you could look into it and improve it for everyone
How exactly do you see that miner is disconnected from the pool and reconnect within just 2 seconds? No pool I know can show that miner disconnects/reconnects in realtime, all of pools' websites have big delay.
It is not how they work. I have been using DSTMand Bminer for months mining ZEC and when the miner is taking the dev fee the miner doesn´t diconnect from my pool and there is no drop on the hashrate either.
So you might want to have a look at real devs and learn from them, cos when your miner disconnects drops the hashrate on the pool and the payout too which is costing me money (apart from the one you take which I consider to be rasonable fair). So far I have stopped using it.
And it does disconnect from the pool everynow and then. X seconds ( doesn´t have to be 2) was just a way of explaining the fact that dissapears from the pool randomly and then it rapears again.
I am not attacking you but if you want to take it personal go ahead. I am just hinting you to make improvements on that bit. Because of that ussuse the dev fee it is not 1.66% it is more because of what we lose on connection issues
Yes, I've been using DSTM for 3 weeks or so too. When it works, you can see in your firewall that it always has 2 connections - one to your pool and one to devfee pool. So yes, it doesn't reconnect to your pool and to devfee pool and save you some seconds, but dstm says his miner has 2% devfee. So 2% of mining time your GPUs work for developer of miner, and you still get 2% less of income, no matter how it is organized.
Also this is fork of hsrminer, so it improves original hsrminer. And the fork improved it a lot. I won't repeat about all added features, we are talking about devfee here. Original hsrminer always mines devfee to 1 pool - zpool.ca. If zpool isn't working, original hsrminer will stuck at devfee phase forever trying to reconnect to zpool and you will lose a lot of mining time. Also it has ineffective pool switching algo, and can waste up to 20-30 seconds before it would get work from pool after reconnect. My fork has 2 additional backup devfee pools, so it won't stuck and pool switching algo has been much improved, so no downtime after pool switching.
I have nothing against you, man. I'm just trying to understand how exactly do you see that miner disconnects from pool? Firewall or some other network tool on your rig or you check pool's website? Also can you tell how often it disappears from pool? If it disappears one time per hour - miner switches to other pool for devfee mining.
