Title: DMG Minning Pool varriables Post by: Sarno on April 21, 2012, 06:44:31 PM Ok I'm trying to pick between DMG pools. I read https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=39497.0 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=39497.0) but it just made my head swim.
Could someone tell me from a miners perspective if higher or lower is better for these variables? f - Fixed fee. - I'm guessing lower the better? c - Average variable fee. -Same with this one? o - Cross-round leakage. - Haven't a clue. Also does ping to a pools address play a factor in anything? Title: Re: DMG Minning Pool varriables Post by: Meni Rosenfeld on April 21, 2012, 07:45:54 PM Ok I'm trying to pick between DMG pools. I read https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=39497.0 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=39497.0) but it just made my head swim. The most important factor is (1-f)*(1-c) which is the average payout rate. But that's a non-issue since AFAIK most or all currently existing DGM pools are free so they will have (1-f)(1-c)=1.Could someone tell me from a miners perspective if higher or lower is better for these variables? f - Fixed fee. - I'm guessing lower the better? c - Average variable fee. -Same with this one? o - Cross-round leakage. - Haven't a clue. Also does ping to a pools address play a factor in anything? If the above is fixed, you'll want c to be as high as possible. o depends on your preferences and on the value of c. For fixed c, lower o means payments arrive faster but are more variable. High ping can increase your invalid shares rate.
