Moved from mining BTC to PPC. I have 12 USB ASCI Block Eruptors. I hoping someone here can let me know i what I'm seeing seems correct.
I have the gear running for 45 minutes and only have a total of 76 accepted work items reported on my mining console (BFGMiner). Some of the miners only have a couple of accepted work items. Hardware error rates are under 1% and there is zero rejected work. I am seeing several "Stratum from pool 0 requested work update" messages in between each notice of an accepted item. The status line consistently shows 5 items in the queue for work. Some of the accepted work diffs going by are 4.88k/32, 44/32, 118/32, 1.21k/32, etc. The "best" difficulty block reported is 188k.
In general, this accepted work rate is far slower than what I was seeing mining Slush's BTC pool.
I'm wondering if this is normal PPC pool behavior at PPC.fixx.ru behavior?
I'm located West Coast USA, if that makes any difference. I'm using BFGMiner and my bgminer.conf file is listed below (I've edited out the pwd).
Any help provided would be appreciated.
Thanks!
