Decred DCR Mining Efficiency
Crypto Mining Blog. All About BTC, LTC. So if you are mining Decred (DCR) and want to be able toc ontinue mining it make sure you update your mining software.

It also scales the difficulty it assigns to your miners based on their hashrate. For example, a pair of 1050 Tis at ~780 Mh/s has almost the exact same submitted shares as 4x 980 Tis at ~5150 Mh/s, but the higher hashrate shares have a much higher difficulty so they're worth more.
I have about ~8000 MH/s pointed at suprnova's decred pool and, when I check, suprnova will often report the hashrate as anywhere from 6000 - 10,000. It's entirely normal for luck to generate variance. The more cards/power you have pointed at a singular pool the less the variance typically tends to be (I basically never see 50% hashrate, but when I mine hush on a spare 970 it can easily vary from 50%-150% based on luck). • • • • • • •. So, I tried out coinmine for a little while after your comment.
It seemed to report my hashrate as lower than actual quite consistently (my smaller rigs reported higher than normal while my 4x 980Tis were underperforming, apparently). Ended up mining about ~10% less than I have been on suprnova. Honestly, even with that, I'm just going to say it was likely luck. Over a week it would probably be fairly similar. Unrelated, but coinmine has way too much of the hashing power anyways. It's currently sitting at like 50.1% of DCR's total hash.
To be fair, suprnova's not super far behind (39.6%), but still. If another pool somehow got up to ~10% of the hashrate I'd likely switch to that one, but all the other pools are so small I'd likely be too bothered by the inconsistent results. • • • • • • •. Well it does because it is very strange that you can get 90 in ETH but only 2000 mh/s in DCR.
What is your setup? Because I get 20 Mh/s ETH and 2000 Mh/s DCR on my setup.
So if you get 90 mh/s I think you should get like 4x as much which is like 8000 mh/s Decred. I suggest you should try with different dcri values. It might actually improve your DCR speed and not lower your ETH speed that much or at all, I think.
Claymore is pretty strange in that way. But it can obviously also change the ratio of DCR/ETH. Thing is that you need to test various values to get the best or most efficient dcri value and it sometimes doesnt 'numerically' make sense, i.e it can be anything from 32, 50, 70, 100, or 200. But that is just how it works for my setup. • • • • • • •.
