Title: reducing discarded work?
Post by: GuiltySpark343 on May 02, 2013, 01:40:02 AM
So I use BFGMiner on stratum for BitMinter mining, and have two workers:

Worker A = 260 MH/s
Gets about 68% discarded work
A:3192, R:0, S:6
ST:2, DW:7059, GW:1867, LW:17310

Worker B = 1800 MH/s
Gets about 24% discarded work
A:11414, R:8, S:0
ST:2, DW:3677, GW:924, LW:22936

Any idea why my slower worker (A) seems less efficient and seems to have more discarded work? How I can reduce this to mine more effectively?

I thought DW: was meaningless when using stratum?

Other thing puzzling me is why the higher hash-rate worker has fewer discards ...
