Title: How to increase Accepted, and lower Rejected, Discarded ? Post by: citronick on November 16, 2015, 03:18:03 PM I noticed that while I am getting decent "Accepted" value, low "Rejected" value but massive "Discarded" value?
What is definition of"Discarded"? What do I need to do to improve hash rates and reduce discards? Any impact to my profitability and hash rates, when "Discarded" value is high (currently x2 or x3 of Accepted value)? Thanks guys - appreciate any guidance TMT Title: Re: How to increase Accepted, and lower Rejected, Discarded ? Post by: os2sam on November 16, 2015, 03:26:58 PM According to Kano discarded work is meaningless. Update your mining software and they'll go away.
Do a quick search through the CGMiner support thread and you'll see a bunch of explanations of it. Title: Re: How to increase Accepted, and lower Rejected, Discarded ? Post by: psycodad on November 16, 2015, 03:37:37 PM What is definition of"Discarded"? Discarded shares are shares your miner did find after the pool already announced a new block. So the miner software doesn't even bother to submit it (because it would get rejected).What do I need to do to improve hash rates and reduce discards? Hard to say, it could be from bad mining software as os2sam said, a slow and lossy network, mining on diff port with too high difficulty to name just a few.Any impact to my profitability and hash rates, when "Discarded" value is high (currently x2 or x3 of Accepted value)? Pools only pay for accepted shares, so yes, more accepted shares - more payout.HTH Title: Re: How to increase Accepted, and lower Rejected, Discarded ?

Post by: citronick on November 16, 2015, 04:29:56 PM My discard and accepted value seems to be around the same amount.... i worry if there's something amiss with my network connection?
Meaning the miner could have been able to take more request but not able to because the internet connection is not fast enough. My password is default so no vardiff settings there. Temp is within threshold. My S7s are hashing fine and 600mhz. Title: Re: How to increase Accepted, and lower Rejected, Discarded ?

Didn't I just say discarded is irrelevant?
