and does purepool check the nonce as each small share is solved?
Yes, purepool checks the nonce on every share.
One more dumb question, you said 25% more on solo than multi against purepool, I know this sounds relatively dumb but are you positive those figs are not reversed? As Capulo is seeing the opposite with 100 running for 4 hours.
Yes, I'm a sure the numbers are right
But as said, my test might be simply different from what capulo had done. My test was much shorter, too. I simply can't run the test for 4 hours right now, I need to wait for the weekend to do that.
But at the same time, I'm not sure if there isn't another factor of importance here:
pool has limit 40 threads... so you cant use 320, but i'm not sure if also purepool has limit
No, purepool does not limit the threads. No information given by the client that can not be verified is part of the checks. Only the calculated share is of importance, it must be unique and valid.
Everything else seems quite easy to fake, so I don't think it is of any use to build on these.
But given that 40 threads and 320 theads are quite different, what happens if you run 8 wallets with 5 threads each = 40 threads. That would be a fair run, and ensure that the thread count isn't the "problem".
Aside from that, I'm not sure how any of this could be prevented, if it is true. What stops a user from creating multiple accounts on the main pool or purepool and run one wallet of the multi wallet setup per account against the pool? We could check the ip address, but that would harm other users, too, if we allow only one miner per IP.
