hey guys, did you realize when using claymore's xmr miner with nofee option enabled you get the same hashrate as if you turned it on, I've been mining like that forever and no issues, it's like devfee is optional, and not necessary for the best speed since you already have it.
I don't know about other chips but I can confirm it for hawaii, fiji and polaris chips.
Can anyone else confirm this?
I thought about this too. And I think that Claymore can say that speed will be less to scare all of us ))) Maybe it's placebo?
Anyway to check this we must look to the statistics on the pool to check accepted speed and verify it with miner speed except pool's fee.
I will check this too.
It's another way to not pay dev fee to Claymore - restart of miner every 16 min. But we lose the same or even more time that miner mines for dev.
EDIT: All day mined with -nofee 1 option. I don't see any difference on accepted speed by pool. It's not higher but not less..
