  @haitch Right now with CPU mining with 3 cores, I'm getting 4673 nonces/minute. That's 3.5 TB out of 7.2TB Hard Drive. I need to plot about 14.5 millions nonces to complete the 3.5TB, and that's about 2days or so to complete... I'm connected via USB 3.0....

  @Lucifer8 Try them, see if they'll run for you, and how they perform compared to default.

  gpu assisted is using less cpu, i do not know how much heat a mac produces ... but yes should also work in a closed room?! Mining means read 0.025% of plots and do some calculation every 4minutes.

  @Longsnowsm

  Just a precaution but take a screenshot of your wallet.

  Also ensure you have the passphrase and Burst address written down somewhere safe.

  I'm paranoid haha

  @dimosgr something like this here too. I've got stuck, more than 30 minutes on the same block. Something is really strange.

  @piezo amazing data!
  What's your stagger size? Can you run Blago's miner in AVX mode?

  Stagger size is between 20.000 and 50.000. Mostly 50.000 .
  Unfortunately i couldn´t run Blagos miner because i have no license-key for Windows OS.

  @HiDevin It depends on how big your plot is - the more you have the longer it takes; but six seconds is great.

  @Jackk78
  I saw the screen of jminer ... you may want to make it look better ...
  http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/19982/how-to-make-the-windows-command-prompt-wider/
  Also you still have memory issues? If you have Win7, that causes the issues. Also memory usage depends on the power of your GPU ... jminer will not wait for GPU but load all the data into memory, so if GPU is not fast enough you will have high memory usage.
  Read here for maybe memory usage improvements:

  @jervis The client was okay, the wallet it runs again had semi-crashed and stuck on an old block, Should be up to date shortly.

  @mcchurchmouse said in Same second "not confirmed dl":

  Is it better to be a big fish in a small pool or a small fish in a big pool?

  Eheh I think that truth is in the middle: a very big miner in a pool of very small miners will only have shares "stolen" by the others, a very small miner in a big miner's pool have too low shares for an equilibrate payout (you will see real money only when you forge blocks, but that depends on pool rules...) ; but remember that in the VERY long run, statistically, pool and solo mining give the same total earnings, the difference is only in payout frequency... So in conclusion i think that a pool that accept the very most of your deadlines (or a pool of big miners that accept anyway a lot of your deadlines, but in this case you have to do your estimations...), it's well managed and, of course, you like it will be perfect for you! :)

  @BurgerBaron Actually, it did not. I can't access or change to other pools. I posted a query hoping someone can find out why. I also just posted another question to see if I can remove the existing Burst Client software and then reinstall without losing vital info. Not sure why I'm having this issue.
