Has anyone noticed improved hash rate by updating cgminer on the Antminer S1? It looks like the latest firmware from Bitmain is running cgminer 3.12. I just got mine recently so that's the version it shipped with and it's been running without issue right around 180GH/s each (I didn't overclock... my 750W power supply probably couldn't handle any extra load since I'm running 2 S1's off of it.)
I read your instructions and it seems pretty straight forward to update since I'm very familiar with Linux and ssh. I'd just like to know what practical benefits I would get from updating. I'm kind of leaning towards "if it ain't broke don't fix it" unless it would help me out in some way.
As I understand it, the update was meant to fix efficiency issues while using the s1 on p2pool. I'm not sure it makes any difference on other pools. My reject rate is below 5% now with the update and a local p2pool node.
