[CadenceMTk]

new user here, i may be wrong but dev fee supposed ot be 10 minutes a day i have been getting 17-20 minutes a day in mining for dev. is there something im doing wrong.. its been 3 days and most of it was benchmarking and sorting out unstable miner/algo pairs.

Please have a look into the config.txt and check if parameter Donate is set to 10. I suspect it's at the default (it's the value in minutes the donation round will take per day).

  "Donate": 10,

This is from the documentation:

• Donate = set the minutes, you want RainbowMiner to work for the developer (min. is 10 minutes, equals to 0.7%) [default=24]

its been 3 days and most of it was benchmarking and sorting out unstable miner/algo pairs.

In fact the benchmark can take a long time, depending on your rig. We would have had a shortcut here: next time, just set parameter "EnableFastlaneBenchmark": "1", in config.txt. Rainbowminer will then try to download a set of benchmark results that comes close to your rig's performance. It's not really accurate, but will give you a quick start. In fact, the hashrates will then adjust themselves overtime.

Also a hint: if your benchmarks are ready, always keep a fresh backup of your benchmarks. Just add the contents of folder .\Stats\Miners to a zip archive and store it away.

Could you post this info on the main instructions?
I didn't find them while reading. Or please point me to this part on the installation instructions. Thank you.
