Hi there!

I thought I'd share this since maybe somewhere here wants to do something similar and it might save them some time.

My miner has been playing up on the last version (5.6) and I wanted to capture the performance data so that I could plot it and see if there's any indications of when it's going to fnck up. I ended up writing some Python code that imports a log file, extracts the data and then generates some charts.

Here's a post describing what the code is doing https://jonnymaserati.github.io/2021/08/21/why-engineers-should-use-python.html.

There's a link at the bottom of the post to download the .py file.

Hope it helps someone... I can always make a repo on GitHub if anyone wants to develop it a bit more.

Interestingly, the problem I was having (the hash rate dropping to zero and then rocketing to a huge value before crashing the miner) seems to have stopped since updating to version 5.7b and this didn't happen with previous versions?
