Electricity cost incorrect

Post by mrnitrate » Thu Jun 22, 2017 4:26 pm

Ever since 6/13/17 the Electricity cost in the Total Earnings graphs appears to be calculating the Electricity cost incorrectly. https://www.screencast.com/t/TOqebKd47GCU

Before the 13th it was correctly calculating ~1.80 a day in Electricity costs , but since then it only calculates ~0.30 a day in Electricity costs for the same miner (A2 Terminator).

I don't know if this is relevant but on 6/11/17 i switched my payout from one coin (LTC) to two coins (LTC, ETH).

Hopefully it will be corrected in the future

Thanks for that catch.

The cause for this is that we reduced the number of shares being inserted into the database to improve performance, and forgot to multiply by the shares not inserted to correct for that.

I'll inform Chris of this problem and he'll make the corrections this weekend. Thanks!

Partially, and the changes were deployed last night. One of the causes was that electricity costs for found blocks counted much higher than for other shares. That was corrected and the values should be closer to normal.

We have viewed electricity usage as having low usability for about a year now. The correct solution to this problem is to implement per-miner electricity usage, which we hope to do later in the Fall.
