Title: Rig with smaller Hashreate recieve more shares on flypool.
Post by: grunoff on October 04, 2017, 11:54:48 AM
Hello, all.
Can somebody explain to me how it could be.
rig 1 (my rig) - http://zcash.flypool.org/miners/t1R5MDRcwGKqLr9n7v4o1s8TrvjQsVeWkyc
rig 2 (1080ti03-win10) - http://zcash.flypool.org/miners/t1USjC69sPnd9v8PekA6VUaL3LofSmxS5sF

The same pool. Compare his rig with the name - 1080ti03-win10 and my one.

Could somebody explain why his rig receive more shares?

Thank you in advance.

There is a parameter known as share difficulty. The pool sets the share difficulty.
For example,
Your rig1: 1x 1080ti (750sols)
My rig2: 1x 1080ti (750sols)

Let's say the share difficulty for your rig from the pool is set to "2x", so you'll be getting "y" amount of accepted shares. The reward for one share at "2x" difficulty be "2z".
The share difficulty for my rig from the pool is set to "x", I'll be getting "2y" amount of accepted shares. The reward for one share at "x" difficulty be "z".

So, no matter if your shares are low and mine are higher, we will probably mine the same amount of coin as it all depends on share difficulty and accepted share proportionally.

From the looks of it, seems that you're average hashrate started at the less, it only means that the other miner has been up and running for a while compared to yours, it is logical that whoever has a long running mining rigs has receive much shares.

Difference of pool side difficulty.
Difficulty from pool varies on the ability of mining rig. Number of shares has not that big meaning.
