Title: Low ping / ms pool server make a difference ?
Post by: commandera on May 21, 2020, 07:24:41 AM
Hello

I start with Ethermine first pool for newbie
I asked myself off course have better than this pool or Or maybe I will like something new, I’m sure all of you when you started mining you wasted sometime searching and searching for which crypto can mine etc,,,


Now I'm with Ethermine i love monitoring but 135ms +

Ethermine now phoenixminer running 17:47 hours
shares 2381\0\0

ok when i searched , ok let's go with 2miners
this pool 80+ ms i will try soon till to payout 0.05 with 2miners


How do I make a comparison between pools to pick the best , how i know which better ?

For example ethermine 10 hour 1000 share
and 2miners 10 hour 600 share
isn't ethermine here better ?
+
MS matter ? ?

Ping matters, but probably a lot less than you think. There are many other factors that should be considered when choosing a pool, like operator trust, fees, transparency, uptime, etc... I wouldn’t focus too heavily on just the ping.

Investors spent billions of dollars to reduce ping by 1ms.

Yes, ping matters.
