Title: Why isn't the hashrate constant on CPUs? Post by: XX55XX on June 23, 2011, 12:56:27 AM For giggles, I decided to mine on my old Pentium M laptop today. The hashrate fluctuates from zero to 0.45 Mhash/s and seems to be constantly connecting and disconnecting. Anyone know why this is the case?
I surmise that it's because blocks are getting finished more quickly than my little Pentium M can finish its share. Title: Re: Why isn't the hashrate constant on CPUs? Post by: grue on June 23, 2011, 01:06:31 AM maybe because there are other processes that use CPU power?
