Con, can you address the best way to determine settings for scantime & expiry when mining the latest scrypt coins? Do you lower them to try to equal the block frequency? Like chinacoins were every second and mincoins are every minute, so it seems like leaving at default is a bad idea...
That's like going back to how we mined bitcoins >2 years ago before pools and longpoll. The answer is set the scantime as low as you can before the hashrate drops. If you're solo mining, something like 5s is usual for sha coins. However it can be slow to return results for scrypt so you'll have to experiment.
