#getworkbias = -1  # Bias (in MHashes) that is credited to the work source for every work

#                  # work very often, but the default value effectively disables this
#                  # behavior. This needs to be negative (non-zero) though, in order
#                  # to ensure that work requests are distributed evenly between work
#                  # sources during startup.
#longpollkillbias = 0  # Bias (in MHashes) that is credited to the work source for every piece
#                      # of work that was invalidated by a long poll (default: 0). This is
#                      # used to compensate for anomalies caused by getworkbias.

#                         # failed work request (default: -3000). This punishes work source

#jobstartbias = 0  # Bias (in MHashes) that is credited to the work source everytime

#jobfinishbias = 0  # Bias (in MHashes) that is credited to the work source everytime

#sharebias = 4000  # Bias (in MHashes) that is multiplied with the difficulty and credited
#                  # to the work source for each found share (default: 4000). This rewards
#                  # work sources with high efficiency. Keep it near the default value to
#                  # ensure that work sources which produce junk work (that never yields
#                  # shares) can not consume much hashing power.
#uploadfailbias = -100  # Bias (in MHashes) that is and credited to the work source for
#                       # each share upload retry (default: -100). Because a huge bias
#                       # doesn't keep a work source from retrying to upload the share,
#                       # you should keep this relatively low to ensure that the work
#                       # source will be used again when it pops back to life. Work source
#                       # downtime should be punished using getjobfailbias instead.
#stalebias = -15000  # Bias (in MHashes) that is multiplied by the difficulty and credited
#                    # to the work source for each stale share (default: -15000). With the
#                    # default settings this will half the work source's hashing power at
#                    # a stale rate of about 2%.
#biasdecay = 0.9995  # Decay factor that is multiplied onto all work sources' bias on every
#                    # getwork on any work source (default: 0.9995). Helps ensuring that
#                    # work sources will be favored after they recover from temporary
#                    # failures until they have caught up with the configured priority.

# MPBM supports multiple blockchains and aggregates long poll responses
# from all pools within a blockchain to further reduce stales.
# Work from all pools within a blockchain is flushed as soon as any of
# the pools responds to a long poll (subsequent long poll responses from
# other pools within the next seconds will be suppressed).
# This means that e.g. P2Pool will need to be put into a separate blockchain
# definition because its long poll responses don't correlate with other pools.

# The available hashing power (from all workers) can be distributed across
# different work sources by adjusting the priority values. MPBM will attempt
# to distribute hash rate proportionally to these priorities, unless a work
# source fails. If that happens, the work source's priority will be reduced
# and slowly be increased again when the work source comes back to life.
# You can see this in action with the P2Pool entry in the default config
# if you don't have a P2Pool instance running on localhost.

# If you want to support further development of MPBM, you can do me a favor by
# leaving the demo pool entries active, and just adding your own one below them.
# If you give your own pool entries a total priority of 1000, you will donate
# 1% (on average) of your total hash rate to the author of this software.
# This won't make a big difference for you, but it does for me.
# Templates for that can be found below the demo pool entries.
