Title: Load Balancing - Mining for multiple accounts? Post by: sgi02 on June 11, 2014, 01:02:43 AM Brief synopsis = A friend and I would like to go in on a venture to buy some hardware to start a small mining farm. He will be providing the capitol for the project and I will be managing the hardware / software. This isn't going to be a large setup. I will be given a percentage of the mining proceeds for my services, and he will get the remainder.
Since we will be mining the same coin(s), it would make sense to split the proceeds at the mining level via software. My question is; do programs like sgminer, cgminer, sphminer et cetera support this kind of functionality? I've seen miner's from Claymore and NaN that incorporate a dev fee similar to what im looking to accomplish. I realize that these examples are hard coded into the miners, and im not looking for the same extravagant amounts of sophistication, id just like to keep it simple. Thanks for your help!

But when you use load balance you will have a small downtime (quite miniscule I believe) where the miner won't work as it switches pool (even if you're gonna swap to the same pool just to a different account) and that will result in lost mining time.Since we will be mining the same coin(s), it would make sense to split the proceeds at the mining level via software.

Again, a very minor one, but lost nonetheless. I think you ought to reconsider splitting your revenue at the coin level and not software. I assume you will be converting all your income to either a specific coin or just to fiat, either case splitting the income should be quite easy.

Thanks for your help! just split your income, dont use load balance, coz it will make miner often to drop mining task and switch to other account. also, many of the pools use the pplns payout system, so, when you dont mine there all the time, even tho your hashrate is lets say 10mh, you will get payed less. learn more about pplns payout system here : http://pool-x.eu/aboutpplns cheers, and good luck with mining adventure |
