Topic: set difficulty for max combined devices Gh's or max per device (Read 2334 times)
excellent, thanks for that nugget of info
The way I understand the stratum protocol and desired Pool total network I/O coming from your location, it's recommended to set it according to total GHs power available to you on-site.
In your case (4 GHs), I'd set it to 4 then.

At difficulty 4, I get a lower rate of accepted shares. Is this still advantageous in some way? Each share in cgminer displays either device 0 or device 1, its faster with difficulty 2.
On average, a difficulty of 2 will be accepted twice as many times as a difficulty of 4, but you get only half as many shares per acceptance, so it is the same.

Wow I'm having the same issue.

my pool settings are currently set for difficulty 2 running 2x devices, each running at around 2.0 Gh's, since each share seems to be handled by only 1 device at a time -- is this the correct approach? or should I have it set for the combined rate of 4Gh's (difficulty 4)?
