Question here, do I loose speed or shares by using the ssl port, 5555?
Is there realy any advantage by using SSL? Got the -mport set at 0 any ways
MiningPoolHub did have a note saying that using SSL helped, in what way I can't remember and the note is now not there. Another pool also said that SSL helped, nothing to do with security but with improving the connection, how? I don't know. You could test with/without SSL and see if there is a difference - can't do no harm to try.
