is CTRL-C in the remote screen that bad ?
with CTRL-C you can stop the miner or other scripts but you can not restart 3main or kill the screen as far as i know.
I do ctrl-C in the miner screen all of the time to restart it. I said kill the miner in my previous post, I just didn't say how. Either way, the watchdog detects low utilization and restarts 3main eventually.
That's right. But it takes time for the watchdog to detect the problem and restart 3main. If you restart the console its instant.
