Although the srbminer was working usper stable with my Vega rigs and gave me amazing nominal hashrate, my adventure with srbminer comes to the end

After a lot of monitoring I figured out that srbminer and cast.xmr give me much less real hashrate than the miner hashrate. I have tried several pools and difference goes as much as 20%. I don't know why, one of the rigs is correct (12KH/s reported by miner and pool) and others vary from 11.5 to even 10KH/s real hashrate. I have 0 invalid shares, everything works beautiful, but my hashes are missing.

Although XMR STAK gives me less hashrate, it is spot on with what the pool reports. I have read few pages ago that older versions of srbminer do not have this issue, but I can't find them online anymore.

After long time, back to where I started, hello XMR STAK, sorry doc, your miner is awesome but difference is too high for me.

I took the time and tested latest STAK 2.4.5, to see is hashrate on pool = hashrate in miner like you say.

As you can see on the image, STAK running for more than 6 hours.
Miner shows 1775hs as average for 15m.
Pool shows 1674hs as average for 6 hours.

If my math is correct : 1775 - 1674 = 101 hs difference.
If i had 6 vegas that is : 6 * 101hs = 606 hs dissapeared somewhere.

Look at the graph, that is what is called luck.
Sometimes 50 found shares, then only 6.

What i want to show you with this is that you can never have the same hashrate ALL THE TIME in your miner as on your pool.
Sometimes it will be less, sometimes more, and that is totally normal.
