Hi Patrike

the auto tune feature was disabled, that chart is the snapshot of miners behaviour running all night long.

The miners was manually set to low power on the whole single chains, (475 MHz, 8,1÷8,5V ~ 780W / 10 THs) replicating exactly the settings previously running on Braiins OS to make the comparison reliable.

Workers was set to SlushPool EU servers, while DevFee was set to Singapore; honestly this shouldn't be the cause of the drops shown on the chart.

Anyway, at this point it doesn't really matters, if really I'm the only one having experienced these strange behaviours perhaps it has been my fault as before I've tried to hack the DevFee workers tweaking the router attempting (unsuccessfully) to get rid of them; perhaps the firmware is so maliciously intelligent to remember hacks attempts and vendicate itself :-)

Regardless benchmark oddities, the most disappointing aspect, is that it's a shame for Awesome Miner to promote DevFee firmware to their paying customers!

And most generally speaking, why pay fees for a suspicious firmare that basically doesn't performs better than others whose source code is open source such as BOS??

Honestly Awe Miner reputation doesn't come out strengthened by this questionable marketing operation. IMHO of course... does someone disagree on this point?
