and does purepool check the nonce as each small share is solved?

Yes, purepool checks the nonce on every share.

So, how does share difficulty submission work on purepool?

If we run 32 threads on a 4 core system, does that means each thread will submit lower difficulty shares more often than if using a 4 core with 4 threads?

Rob's pool is not accepting any share higher than current difficulty (which I think is weird). Are you doing that as well? All the pools I ever participated in will give share credit of whatever the current pool difficulty for the worker is. so, if pool accepts 1 diff, then even if you submit a share diff of 10, you only get credit of 1. I can only think higher share diff is rejected so discourage high hash rate pool participants.

That could explain why we have so many solo miners instead.

Quote from: capulo

capulo:

What's the advantage of running more threads than you have cores or hyperthreads?

reason is only one - more coins

maybe it doesn't help to solve more blocks or what, but you will get more coins

just compare capko and capulo, both are 2x dual x5650, single wallet is 1x40 threads, multi wallets are 24x20 threads and 16x 20 threads

and regarding solo mining, pool has Pool Total HPS: 92625.2
i have solo about 70000 hps
today i hit 2x more blocks than pool, and constantly i'm hitting more blocks solo than whole pool
