ComputerGenie, in your script (thanks) you have 'Estimated time for new miner to hit full 5N: 28 days, 4 hours, 5 min, 31 sec'.
What is the definition of new miner in regard to the pool? Is it a 'new user' or a 'new worker'? For example I am a User for 5 months using 5 machines. If I were to add a 6th miner/worker is this new miner at 5N or does it ramp up from 0N-5N based on the current pool hash rate?
Thanks!
It looks at the "Pool 5 min" and calculates how long that hashrate would take to hit 5N shares; "new miner" assumes you, almost literally, just started but are included in the "Pool 5 min" hashrate (0N-5N). This only covers a "new worker" if that worker has a different addy than your other worker(s) as anything you've already commited on any existing addy is above 0N. Since hash fluctuates, there's no way to do an exact, 100% definite calculation, so I went with that.
Hope that clarifies.
