v1.3n+ and v1.3n++ (beta build, Apr 28 2019 12:28:20) CUDA 10 versions doesn't work on sparkpool, see picture above.
Sparkpool is displaying that there are too many rejected shares, but it's not reporting it back to miner, so in miner it looks good, but on poolside >95% of shares are rejected (or stales).

Then I left it to mine on leafpool and it keeps mining fine for more than 8 hours.
Only thing I noticed is that at some point it hits 100% CPU usage and stays like that, I need to investigate this more.

CPU: Celeron G3930 (@2.90 GHzm 2C/2T)
RAM: 4 GB
Virtual Mem.: 64 GB
GPUs: 1x 1080ti MSI Gaming
         5x 1080  inno3d twin X2

OS: Windows Server 2016 (version 1607, OS Build 14393.2273)
Nvidia driver: 419.17 (CUDA 10.10)

MSI Afterburner (for OC): 4.6.0   -> noting this as it can be cause of 100% CPU usage, because on 1080ti fanspeed readings in miniZ console becomes 0%, maybe there are conflict between querying Nvidia-SMI stats from miner and Afterburner, idk.
Hi hogwash.89m,
Thank you for the detailed information.
We are looking to what is happening with sparkpool.

We have updated the testing file with few more small corrections.
miniZ.exe --version output:  miniZ v1.3n++ @ cuda v10.0, Apr 28 2019 20:05:51

If you try it out let us know how it goes.
Cheers

also been mining BEAM on sparkpool, latest version (1.3n2?) stil has issues with rejects there, 186 accepted 0 rejects according to miner 5.57% invalid 1% stale on sparkpool with high invalid/delay notification.
