Not so lucky with the 5Th/s (12 Ant S3s) setting ......
Mined around 15 hours after I restarted the node ... 6 shares (2 ophened ...) Furthermore, 2 of the "good share" appeared to be mined by my Cointerras when they hop between the pools during fail-over...
So ... I am experiencing similar problem, where the Ants are not getting in shares as they should be .... it's like 3 times less effective than it should be.....
I have temporary shut my node down, and mine with Discuss Fish for the time being, before I get off work and carry out further trials tonight.
BTW, I set the followings
(i) --give-author 0 -a [a remote payout address]
(ii) Ants mining using separate names (e.g. Ant1, Ant2, Ant3 ... Ant12)
(iii) the node and the miners are in 2 separate physical location, but not too far away (20 min ride distance)
Will these seriously affect the mining performance? I know (iii) will hurt a bit, but how about (i) and (ii) ?
