First of all thanks a lot for creating this tool. Especially for LTC mining, where I get a lot of times sick/dead GPUs, this might turn out handy Smiley If I end up using this tool productively, for sure some donation will come your way...


■ Restart the miner if shares (accepted, rejected, discarded, and stale) do not increase for X number of minutes.

Maybe a newbie question, but what do those "discarded" shares that are also shown on the status page refer to?

I was not aware that CGMINER shows any discarded shares. Except for the ill-named "SS" of course, which according to the documentation refers to "stale shares detected and discarded before submitting". But in my case the "SS" value in CGMINER shows 0, while the discarded value in CGWatcher shows something like 15-25%... o it can't be the same I guess.

Any hint how this value relates to the info available in the CGMINER text interface?
