Title: ASICMiner Block Erupter Throughput difference linux & windows Post by: jand1980 on August 12, 2013, 04:48:35 PM I am quite new to mining and have been test different mining software with my usb sticks.
I started with bitminter under windows which showed my devices at the expected throughput I am now testing cgminer under linux and i am struggling to get a third of the throughput they should be running at on each device, is there a particular reason for this or should i be using different mining software under linux.

Followed the cgminer setup here: http://learn.adafruit.com/piminer-raspberry-pi-bitcoin-miner/install-cgminer and the config from here: http://learn.adafruit.com/piminer-raspberry-pi-bitcoin-miner/configure-settings Title: Re: ASICMiner Block Erupter Throughput difference linux & windows Post by: jand1980 on August 15, 2013, 10:45:46 PM Thanks for that I will check those out.
I have now noticed under cgminer under linux if I only have 1 usb miner connected i get the expected output but as soon as I start adding additional devices the combined thoughput is less than 1 device. I am currently trying 3 devices and they are only achieving a combined throughput of 270Mh/s but one device on its own is more like 336Mh/s???
