So:
yes, you can turn the devfee off.
yes, if you do, you will mine slower. reason - IAW the devfee string log, it will mine in the dev's pool. It just will not deposit the coin.
at the end, we didn't make the program. Give credit where due. if you don't want to pay the dev fee, then try to learn to write your own.
I have no issues paying a fee. I think 1% is more reasonable, but im not a coder and can't complete with them.
Hey, this "discussion" has started from GDDR5X card performance on DSTM vs. EWBF, and one of the users stated (and was instantly insulted by a dumbass in this thread) that in current DSTM performance state EWBF outperforms it on GDDR5X cards + you can turn off fee or set to 1% if you see it is more reasonable.
From my side this was not question about fee itself but performance, and why someone must pay fee on less performing miner...
Currently i am running 6x1080 rig on flypool on EWBF for 24 hrs and will switch to DSTM to check real situation in GDDR5X EWBF vs. DSTM
Fee or not to fee is not the question, though 1% to me also would be prefferable, if you make 100K or 50K per day i dont see big difference, i would live with 10K per day....
If dev see that this is his lifetime opportunity to build a "fortune" that is his choice. We as users still have choice of different miners/algos/pools etc.
