new win32 qt is now available featuring split and combine thresholds,
to set you will need to modify your bumbacoin2.conf,
included in the zip is a conf file you can use to modify.
it should just work with no extra effort. but to be safe
as always, back your data uphttps://drive.google.com/open?id=0B5j8d4FSc7drNHF4Z2NxV2R5Qzgand source
https://github.com/bumbacoin/bumbacoin2-test/tree/stakeTestingto utilise the new variables.
two lines to include in your conf to adjust are, (these figures below are the default settings).
splitthreshold=50
combinethreshold=5000
also to note,
max split amount is 5,000
max combine amount is 100,000
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++simply,
any inputs below the split threshold will not split any more,
and inputs above the combine threshold will not combine any further.
but there is also the wee thing about age,
a staking input younger than 9 hours will consider splitting,
a staking input older than 9 hours will consider combining.
also coins in different addresses will not combine, so if your coins are in multiple addresses then they will not combine with each other.
//
so,
as a vague starting point,
i look at how many coins i have, and make a decision about how many inputs i want my wallet to handle,
eg. 100k coins, 100 inputs,
if i set the split threshold at 2000, then after each input stakes and splits 6 times it will get to around 1.5k coins,
which is about 65 inputs
so i could set the split a bit lower..
remembering they will only split if younger than 9 hours.
as far as combining happens.
if the input is over 9 hours, and under the threshold, it will combine with other inputs until total value exceeds the threshold.
the obviously logic is under 9 hours, it will split to give the input less weight and hence take longer to stake,
over 9 hours, then it can combine to reduce input load.
thinking 100 inputs is good, i can put the combine threshold at 1000 so they will never combine over that - although, a single input that keeps staking will get larger.
i hope this makes sense,
this is the first time i've tried to put this to words, so perhaps the 5th draft will be clearer
..
plausibly the split age could be not good.
tbh, the silly maths involved in working this out is all dependent on difficulty as well. so higher diffs will make inputs take longer, so less likely to split.
please let us know how your staking goes.
