Title: Stale shares Post by: kriskarthik on October 20, 2017, 11:08:20 AM Hello,
I'm running a rig with 8X1070, after couple of hours from starting the stake shares went upto 14%. Is this normal ? How can we reduce the stale % ? Any advise would be very helpful Title: Re: Stale shares Post by: kriskarthik on October 20, 2017, 11:21:42 AM Sorry, I forgot to mention that I'm mining etherium in the ethermine pool. And my rig is connected with internet using a Ethernet wire. Im not sure if this info is helpful but in just saying ::)

How can we reduce the stale % ? Any advise would be very helpful No, 14% of stale shares is not a normal thing. Check your internet connection. This has more or less to do with ping with the stratum port. While running claymore miner, check the ping which is mentioned in ( ). The nominal range is below 200ms. Title: Re: Stale shares Post by: kriskarthik on October 22, 2017, 09:08:47 AM Thanks. I'm running on a 500MBps and hoping that is sufficient. I'm using ethermine. Let me ping the server for latency.

Is the pool server you are connected to close enough? e.g. You are in Europe and mining on a server located in US, this would increase the stale shares rate Title: Re: Stale shares Post by: kriskarthik on October 22, 2017, 02:35:15 PM Yes, the server that I'm connecting to is in same county as me. May be with in 100km. This one is now nagging me a lot lol. I have latest windows updates, drivers, new devices, recently restarted system, but still ::)
Title: Re: Stale shares Post by: kriskarthik on October 22, 2017, 02:37:50 PM Btw, the stale shares now reduced to 8-10% automatically. Don't know why. But it's still high right ? Can I say 3-4% is ok?

(I don't know if you can with your miner) I hope you can reduce and solve this high rate. Generally need to change port to set a new difficult, but I repeat, I don't know if you can do it atm
Title: Re: Stale shares Post by: dadesu on October 22, 2017, 02:42:28 PM Look line new standard on ethereum for normal stale shares are about 4-7% from fork.
Sometimes is smaller percentage, but in lots of case is about 5%. Anyone have idea how to lower stale shares?

Generally need to change port to set a new difficult, but I repeat, I don't know if you can do it atm Let me explore that area. So far I haven't notice any such thing in ethermine pool. But I'll check if further. Title: Re: Stale shares Post by: Matt9301 on October 22, 2017, 04:37:44 PM Have you tried to change difficult manually?
