Don`t tuch anything ~2000pps is fine, you can`t compare to ypool miner

Don't change the parameters unless you have a computer science or mathematics degree  Grin

w00t! went back to solo mining w/HP9 and hit a block within 12 hours.

{
"blocks" : 101723,
"chainspermin" : 5,
"chainsperday" : 0.65202060,
"currentblocksize" : 2807,
"currentblocktx" : 8,
"difficulty" : 9.47157931,
"errors" : "",
"generate" : true,
"genproclimit" : 7,
"roundsievepercentage" : 70,
"primespersec" : 1212,
"pooledtx" : 8,
"sievepercentage" : 18,
"sievesize" : 600000,
"testnet" : false
}

Thanks.
Found something in a history. Seems like 2000 is really great )
I've only changed sievepercentage from default 10 to 5 and now see 2218 pps.

Face palm.

Exactly as Trillium said. Don't do that, you are increasing your PPS but you will get less blocks mined because your sieve is not producing enough candidates.

If you are playing with these settings always spend few hours on testnet trying one and the other version and comparing the results. These few hours are well worth it since you save many, many hours of false mining with inferior settings.
