is it better to divide my nav with coin control?
bump what does that mean. does it stake better if coins are split up?
It makes no difference. Even if you have 1 million NAV on one transaction, the wallet will split them up when staking in chunks of 1000-3000 each
Makes some difference, but in reverse.
Some crypto-currencies have a number of inherent limitations with their model of stake,
which require him to divide the pile to avoid heavy restrictions on the final value.
Another good reason, even if extreme, it could be that in the case where at a certain time
in the whole network there were only very few piles, each of enormous size ready for the stake,
it could lead to the paradox that once they are all gone in stake, it would be very difficult
to generate new blocks and then confirm the previous stakes. Block chain locked.
In any case, it is true that the wallet automatically performs a split of the pile, a division into 2,
roughly the same value, but only if the stake occurs rapidly, in a time less than MaxAge [1],
currently 1 day, but if the time to achieve the stake was longer, there is no split.
One thing to keep in mind is the CoinWeight, it makes more or less likely to get a stake,
this value is given by the value of the pile, multiplied by its age with a limit equal to MaxAge.
In practice the CoinWeight, starts from a minimum value as soon as the pile becomes mature
for the stake (MinAge: 2 hours), and continues to grow in a linear manner until the age
reaches MaxAge, from that point on it remains constant.
Obviously, when you have "luck" and you get the stake, the cycle begins again.
So it seems to me that by this reasoning, evidence suggests that the value of the pile ... has its value.
One other school of thought, considered better to have a large number of smaller pile,
so as to have a kind of so many lottery tickets though with smaller prizes and more sparse,
rather than just few most valuable.
Of course you are free to choose and experiment with as you wish.
Bye Bye

EDIT:
I double checked, I'm sorry I made a mistake, the test carried out to decide whether or not
to split in two the pile, it is not tied to the MaxAge parameter, but is linked to the variable
nStakeSplitAge which corresponds equally to a day.
