I expanded on my explanation given above.  But in essence no, as you would just be wasting time with the relaunch and just because they are "faster" shares, since they are also of lower difficulty they will hold less value at the pool as explained earlier.

Thank you for taking the time to explain that, incredibly helpful!

@Za1n

Why wouldn't someone rig the miner to just launch, run for 1 minute, close, and relaunch if this is the case? Wouldn't that be much more lucrative?

When I launch the miner, for the first one or two jobs my share rate is fast as hell. See screenshot below.

But then after I get a new job from the pool (and I've tried two different pools). It slows down like 10x.

Anyone heard of this happening?

Confirmed, the reinstalls fixed all issues I was having. Thanks.

It's saying there's a DB error but I've pointed it to the correct dir for the block chain and it was just working earlier as I mentioned.




Is it not taking the settings into account in this build perhaps?

UPDATE: It's not taking the path settings into account at all, regardless of where I point it, it's looking in the default path on C.
UPDATE2: Reinstalled 0.96.0, then installed 0.96.0.4 again, I'm now progressing through scanning transaction history. Fun times.

I was wrong, those two lines are written just at closing. Here's the entirety of the log between launch to close.

It's saying there's a DB error but I've pointed it to the correct dir for the block chain and it was just working earlier as I mentioned.

Any input is appreciated, thank you!

7  Bitcoin / Armory / 0.96.0.4 Stuck Preparing Databases 0% on: July 20, 2017, 11:05:12 PM
Bitcoin Core is connected and fully synced. Just an hour ago I'd made a new wallet with Armory and completed a small volume test transaction to it.

After the transaction had one confirmation I closed armory. Reopening it thereafter has resulted in permanent offline mode and being stuck "preparing databases". I've left it here for a half hour, it's using no processor and I'm seeing no change in ram usage. The only log being updated when I close it is armorylog and the only lines it's writing to it are:

2017-07-20 15:59:13 (INFO) -- ArmoryQt.py:5424 - BDM is safe for clean shutdown
2017-07-20 15:59:13 (INFO) -- SDM.pyc:464 - Called stopBitcoind

Any ideas?
