My pool right now is bitcoins.lc. Whenever I leave the miner going for 8+ hours, I generally have about 10% rejection even though everyone else in the pool is getting less than 1%
I'm starting to think it's a latency issue because sometimes I'll run it for 30 min or so and it'll be fine. Other times I'll get 20% rejection.
Currently running a 4870 at 790mhz/790mhz mem at aggression 10 with phoenix and phoenix rising GUI miner. I've played with a lot of settings and nothing seems to help

How hot is your gpu? It gets to 85ish then levels out. I have the GPU fan on auto. I'll put it on 50% and run it for a while to see if that helps. |

85C?!
Kick that up to 100% fan or plan on loosing that card in the next two months.
50-70C is the safe range.

At 50% it's now at 60C. I don't care TOO much about this card because I have 2x 5830's on the way... as soon as they get more in. As I said, it's at 60 and I'm still getting 5.71% rejected. 89mh/s 66 accepted (94.9%) 4 rejected (5.71%) |

I ran the fan at 50% all night. Woke up and the temp was 62C so it was definitely cool enough. I still had 8% rejection rate.

Is this likely a latency issue with bitcoins.lc rather than a config setting on my machine? That's what I'm leaning towards.

This morning I woke up and saw it was right back at 10% rejection.
I may just try switching pools. Are there any other things it could be?

Just updated drivers for the 4870, will mine it for a while to see if it helped. Otherwise, I have QOS on my firewall so I'm wondering if disabling that would help.
Any other ideas?

QoS could probably cause it, disable it and see if anything happens. |

try playing with your AGGRESSION - it seems to affect stale rate for some reason.

I ran aggression rate 11 last night and got 5% rejected this morning. It's an improvement but still rather high. I'll mess with different aggression rates.

I'm getting about a 5% rejection rate
Going to add flag -a2 back in cos I think I was getting lower rejection rate with that before OS reinstall

I'll have to look at how you do that because that'd give me something else to try out. |

ran -a2 at aggression 8 for a while with 100% accepted. Going to run it at 12 aggression overnight to see how we do  Thank you for the very promising help. I'm pretty confident that this will solve that issue i was having. |

I am over 300ms away from bitcoins.lc and I still only get 1% rejection rate, I am not sure it is purely latency you have a problem with

How'd you check that? Any other ideas what it could be? I guess I could try underclocking. |
