It's also considerably more efficient than JSON-RPC: Requesting more work from the server requires 6 bytes from the client and 170 from the server. (Compare this with 47/605 for JSON-RPC... and that's not counting HTTP headers)
Hi im curious as to how this is compared to pool mining. After using pool mining for awhile, I was thinking of using the same approach (smaller work difficulty to individual miners) for the local mining rigs set up. So far using bitcoind and mmp it seems like it is not the same compared to pool mining approach. As the more gpu is added to my local network, I guess running it like a mini pool would be more efficient compared to all connected using the normal method?
Btw running the multiminer, the cmd does not reflect anything after I keyed the command strings in. Is that normal ?
