Well I do mine on middlecoin, and it wasn't an issue before when mining straight litecoin, and by "better" I mean more stable and higher hashrates when I restart cgminer. My cards also run average about 65C in temperature. Any ways if nobody know thats fine. If I offend anyone by asking my question here I apologize.

I know I am taking a risk of getting flamed for asking anything in this thread... but at least I though I would try.

Pretty sure you didn't get flamed, but "CGMiner runs better" is so open-ended that the question needed clarification.

Statistical variance means that anytime your restart CGMiner, or zero the stats, you'll get wild fluctuations in hash rate, W/U, reject rate etc until things settle down over a period of hours. The diff being set to 1024 right now only makes the variance worse even though eventually you should end up with about the same numbers.

I just zeroed CGM on a couple of rigs that are mining elsewhere. Both are 4MH/s rigs. One shows a W/U of close to 5MH/s while the other is under 3MH/s. Once they've been running for a day or two, they'll end up back at the same rate and with broadly similar W/U and reject rate.

In other words it's luck of the draw and restarting CGM shouldn't make any difference to anything in the long run.
