Would be happy to help you out via discord channel, just pm me -- ProgrammerDan there.

If your hash rate is relatively low, your rate of finding hashes will be low. The pool functions as follows:

Each nonce discovery earns you "shares" on the current block, based on the "DL" of the nonce you found. The lower the DL, the more valuable the nonce and the more Shares you earn for that block.

When the block is finally discovered by the pool, everyone with shares on that block get a % of the discovered Arionum based on the sum of the Shares they earned within the block.

The shares are then added to the "Historic" shares. Anyone with shares in Historic are also paid out when a block is found by the pool, based on the % of shares they have vs. total shares in historic.

This is to benefit both fast miners and long-term miners. So your 5 nonce discoveries will have earned you Arionum (1) on the same block as when you submitted the share (2) on subsequent blocks. Historic shares decay by some % each new block that is discovered, they don't remain forever.

The pool pays out to Arionum Wallets once you've earned 10 Aronium on the pool.



As for frequency of discovering a nonce, this is related to "overall pool difficulty". The difficulty has been bouncing between 100 and 150m    (shows inverted in miner -- 50m to 100m) -- and I've been seeing a share discovery on average every 25,000 hashes.

So, if after 15 hours you've found 5 hashes, I'd suspect your H/s is between 2 and 5h/s.


Discovery of nonces is random; the prior analysis is only applicable for a large number of hashes. In my case, the average I quoted is based on 2 days of continuous mining and 2.35 million hashes.

Hope that helps some folks.

Thank you so much! This version pushed my i7 7700k from 5.8 H/s to 13 on only 6 hashers.
Great job

New release of Java Miner w/ prebuilds for Windows:

https://github.com/ProgrammerDan/arionum-java/releases/tag/0.2.3

I strongly recommend updating. Testing users saw 25-50% increase in hashing speeds. In some rare cases, 100% increase. This will vary from system configuration to configuration. Tested ~24 hours on my test systems (i7 7700k, Atom 2.4Ghz) with many successful share submissions.

Current benchmark changes:

Linux Mint 18.3, i7-7700k: 11.25h/s ---> 14.25h/s

Windows 10 Pro, i7 6600U: ~2.5H/s --> 6H/s

Which miner are you using? If it's java, delete the old config.
If it's php, you need to open more instances (1 per thread).
