Title: pool mining bandwidth and peer to peer connections
Post by: zef on June 09, 2011, 02:40:46 PM
Curious if mining from a pool what the network traffic looks like?  if you are just running a mining program, does it require connections to other peers or just the pool server?  does it use much bandwidth?

I was also wondering how much bandwidth the miner such as GUIMiner uses. How big is a typical share?
