Thanks. Does pool/global hash rate not also play a role? what is the point of mining if there is a like 20 other miner in the pool.
I have a short list, skein,bitcore,x16s,cryptonightV7,equihash,ethash,hsr,x16s,Lyra2RE2,neoscrypt,x16r,x17,lyra2z
Im thinking of dropping bitcore though but I seem to be mining it alot although the pool has like +-20 miners. of which I have 10 rigs.
That is a good point. For some algorithms like Bitcore, it is possible to have a large share of the pool's current hash rate. In those cases, mining with the pool is not much better than solo-mining the coins by yourself and any earnings will be slow to payout. I have seen cases where two GPUs can be half of a port's current hash rate even on relatively large pools like Blaze. Also, the price estimates are usually less accurate with these algorithms due to the inconsistent work and slow time to find new blocks. I recently added a feature to my software Hash Auger so that it will automatically exclude ports with low hash rates. You may want to consider disabling certain algorithms on your rigs if you find that you are contributing a large share of the hash rate.
