Now you can set starting difficulty value by typing like "d=0.01" at worker's password.

This would help big hash miners to catch up to its own hardware limit faster than ever.

1. Run your miner program and check your difficulty value.
   Keep in mind that difficulty value must be stabilized.
   We recommend you to get difficulty value at least after 10 minutes of mining.

2. Set this difficulty value to worker's password as "d=XXXX"
   ex) d=0.0312
   Do not write this value to miningpoolhub's worker page, just write it at miner configuration file.

3. Now run your miner program again.
   You will see your miner running at the difficulty value you typed.

4. Difficulty value can go up and down again. It's not a bug.
   d=XXX just gives us hint at start and it doesn't enforce diff value to be fixed.

Far wrong diff value may corrected automatically, but you'd better write optimized value.

Big hash miners who are using rentals, multi-algo, ASIC would get better result with difficulty hint.

Can anyone help me calculate my miners difficulty for equihash and above option ?

I've yet to get this to work... I tried that on a A3 and it still set the diff to 1 which makes it fail and drop out of MPH... Still hopeful they will get the A3 to work with MPH (its the only way to mine Sia now) Without support for the A3 they might as well just take down the Sia pool on the site.
