Hey,

so I've recently added a second GPU but my hash rate has remained the same, using ewbf and ccminer my hashrate has doubled as expected

anything I need to change in the config?

config:

[
   {"time":0,"commands":[
      {"id":1,"method":"algorithm.add","params":["lbry","lbry.suprnova.cc:6256","xxxx"]}
   ]},
   {"time":3,"commands":[
      {"id":1,"method":"worker.add","params":["0","0"]},
      {"id":1,"method":"worker.add","params":["0","0"]}
   ]},
   {"time":10,"loop":10,"commands":[
      {"id":1,"method":"worker.print.speed","params":["0"]},
      {"id":1,"method":"worker.print.speed","params":["1"]},
      {"id":1,"method":"algorithm.print.speeds","params":["0"]}
   ]}
]


I'm using v1.2.10a


You need to create a worker for the second gpu and not 2 workers for the same gpu

Code:
[
{"time":0,"commands":[
{"id":1,"method":"algorithm.add","params":["lbry","lbry.suprnova.cc:6256","xxxx"]}
]},
{"time":3,"commands":[
{"id":1,"method":"worker.add","params":["0","0"]},
{"id":1,"method":"worker.add","params":["1","0"]}
]},
{"time":10,"loop":10,"commands":[
{"id":1,"method":"worker.print.speed","params":["0"]},
{"id":1,"method":"worker.print.speed","params":["1"]},
{"id":1,"method":"algorithm.print.speeds","params":["0"]}
]}
]

That's wrong, worker.add is [algorithm.id, device.id].

Correct approach:
Code:
[
{"time":0,"commands":[
{"id":1,"method":"algorithm.add","params":["lbry","lbry.suprnova.cc:6256","xxxx"]}
]},
{"time":3,"commands":[
{"id":1,"method":"worker.add","params":["0","0"]},
{"id":1,"method":"worker.add","params":["0","1"]}
]},
{"time":10,"loop":10,"commands":[
{"id":1,"method":"worker.print.speed","params":["0"]},
{"id":1,"method":"worker.print.speed","params":["1"]},
{"id":1,"method":"algorithm.print.speeds","params":["0"]}
]}
]
