...after almost 6 hours, internet services restored. only lost about half a th/s in ramp up - glad I stayed up.
Good thing Kano uses PPLNS!

true but I still lost half a th in my average during the 5 hours of no service, of which I have gained 10% of that back so far after 8 hours of being back up. I always lose it faster that it ever builds back up. I can ramp down in a week but takes a month to ramp up. I know it has to do with pool hash rate and so on but my luck is the ramp down is fast and the ramp up is super long.

dammit... was getting ramped up but now Frontier has a nationwide service outage affecting like 40% of their customers here in FL and across other states that they service... Have had no internet for 2 hours. At least I was home to power down the mining building otherwise they would all be running but doing nothing... but now I am ramping back down, lovely.... now watch a block hit while I am ramping down...

I always wanted to get my hands on one of those R4's but could never manage to do so - is it really quiet enough to be in the same room with? I don't trust the videos I have seen lol
Get an old Canaan A741 - I first set one up a couple of years ago:

Under 50dB as a heater. You can make it slower (frequency) and quieter also.
I have that in my lounge room each winter.

This time I'll try an A851 and A921 to see if they can be as quiet on very low settings)

It is all to do with the fan speed and thus if the operational heat is lower, the fan speed will be lower.
Another angle to try--since my 921 still seems impervious to volt/freq changes :shrug:--is to set the default temp higher than default (e.g. 741 @ 95 instead of 90 = 75% fan, 921 @ 98 instead of 95 = 50% fan).

This helped in my case so the fan wouldn't try to fight as much at keeping the temps down. Maybe if Canaan comes out with a 921 firmware that actually responds to volt/freq changes, the above method may be used in conjunction with volt/freq changes too.

Edit: Oh, and the reason I'm hesitant to limit the fan directly is just in case some unforeseen heat wave causes it overheat since I didn't allow it to go up to 100% fan. That's just my personal preference, though.

That would be 8.5T (R4). Don't worry, its not one of those Gekko usb sticks Smiley

Yeah that's probably the 0.63% and a little variance.
The extra 0.63%will add back a few of the older shifts into your average.

The above is probably the cause, however, the graph seems to be running off the left end since the 5Nd is getting bigger, so I'm not 100% sure it's correct.
The average number shown there is calculated when it draws the graph, so it may also be a little off due to the large number of shifts now making 5Nd running off the left ...
I've just made the graph a little wider - see if that made any difference.

and yes it did, average went up by 1.5 th/s  - thanks!

I wish my little miner could find it, it would be hilarious...

how much hash are you pointing at kano?

One of Fuzzy's recent blocks was found with an R4...it can be done Cheesy

Also, every block is found by only one machine no matter how many you have. Smiley

Your shift graph average line change, each shift, will be affected by the point that moves off the left, vs the point added on the right.

However, on a diff change, the length of the 5Nd will also change, in this case it got a little longer due to the diff drop (-0.63%) so that can affect it also of course, but only when the diff changes.

understood - the point dropping off the left is nearly 20 TH lower than the one adding to the right. I would just love to be fully ramped up, its been since Feb and I am still 15 TH from fully ramped up, when yesterday i was only 13 TH from it, so from my perspective, I am moving backwards not forwards.

ouch... even though i added more hash about 5 weeks ago my average is now going down starting today? i know i had less hash 2 months ago but as that drops off my average should increase i would think not decrease.

Good day to be part of a small pool with 5nd. Switching ISP's and then moving the hash out to the garage; finally mostly healed up.

Mine on.... sooner or later

yes lets crack that greedy block!

Pool size could be measured as a percentage of the network maybe, anyway this is sort of how I see it.

Super Pools are over 5EH in size > 10% of the network each
Large pools are over 1EH in size > 2.5% of the network each
Medium pools are over 100PH in size > 0.25% of the network each
Small pools are over 20PH in size < 0.1%
Tiny pools are over 1PH in size < negligible


None of this is an exact science, but I would think this pool would be more comfortable at or above the 250-300PH mark


Yep, that's the sweet spot.

what is considered a large pool? over 100 ph? over 200 ph? I think the bigger benefit to a semi large pool is the reduced ramp up - when it is 45-60 days that might discourage some from joining as that can be a long time to wait for a full reward. maybe where the pool size is large enough to have ramp up around 15 days or so might be nice. My new miner - the T15 has been ramping up since march 25th so around 3 weeks and it is only around 3/4 of the way to being ramped up. I think it has at least another 15 to 20 days to go.
