Speed check

[Destiffmast]

I wonder if there is something wrong with the servers, my primesperspec went down from this,


16:57:09

{
"blocks" : 78031,
"currentblocksize" : 1159,
"currentblocktx" : 1,
"errors" : "",
"generate" : true,
"genproclimit" : -1,
"primespersec" : 3643,
"pooledtx" : 1,
"testnet" : false
}

to this,


21:31:48

{
"blocks" : 78416,
"currentblocksize" : 201426,
"currentblocktx" : 11,
"errors" : "",
"generate" : true,
"genproclimit" : -1,
"primespersec" : 109,
"pooledtx" : 14,
"testnet" : false
}

Even my processor is working all 6 cores at less than 50%.

Is this normal?

There are some problems with miner performance for big blocks:

I was not aware of this at all. Thanks for sharing!

Info like this should be stated in this website.

I found that my performance was stuck at low primepersec for a while, more than one block.

After restarting the wallet things seemed to normalize again.
