  I think fortex is correct in saying, "This is because the mag for a project is capped, you are essentially competing for magnitude against yourself." I'm new to Gridcoin, but I…

  I admit giving that advise. but in reality. I don't practice it. Its the best advice you can give for people with a few computers and also for new comers.

  Thanks for posting this, @fortex. I've been meaning to try optimizing my projects based on my hardware and this post should help spur me to getting that done sooner rather than later.

  RE: You can optimize your MAG even more by selecting best subprojects for your hardware. (solo only)

  Thanks, I'd already started trying to get my head around optimisation. I've just dropped out of GRC pooling into Solo and need to figure best options, given my very old kit.

  Thanks for this @fortex, the benefit is not only for solo crunchers but it applies for pool members as well. Another example where you can optimize your magnitude is for NFS@home -
