now it's a very hard time for miners.i think dev should decrease 5% fee.now 80% of mined coins should pay for electricity cost.miners only earn 20% ,however dev earns 5% ,that means 25% of  miner's earning.


I agree. 2% is more reasonable.

With 5% fee, it gives Claymore the incentive to support the miner and research into further optimisation (and support for more coins such as xcn) which gives us more returns.  All these work means tremendous time and effort.  This 5% dev fee is the best arrangement that I have seen so far.  As the user base grows, this 5% fee will be a good sum to motivate Claymore to produce even better miner.  Keep the 5%.  I am looking forward to more hashes and more coins to mine with my GPUs.

Claymore's AMD GPU miner is the only one there. It is already much faster than the CPU and nVidia miners. If AMD GPU miner is the dominant miner, then there is little difference to us if our new version is even faster than previous version as percentage increase is small.

If the hash rate increase is based on the more power consumption, then it is even worse.
