Need ability to modify the bee count between early out checks #23

dottat commented 4 years ago

On larger hives and especially faster hives it would appear that early out thread is checking a little too often. Can this value be modified via qt wallet in the future? Limiting hashing to 23 threads on a 3900x shows that the 24th thread is kept equally busy as any other thread when it's just doing early out checking. Since total time to hash is ~230ms as is maybe early out can be configured to check at time intervals rather than bee internal (or just a higher bee count since time is already pretty low).
