As you can see i started good on the 13th and i stopped today, I'm now on grc pool and will see if stats look better after a little over two weeks, yes i know the difference between solo and pool, but i would like to see how different they are stat wise for future crunchers, solo is good with a balance 3k, is ok but more is better, so while testing pool crunching i will hope to increase my balance faster.
Plus you can see how your doing on a pool a little better than solo, bad thing is your crunching for the pool and not yourself
Putting test on hold right now as solo crunching has a 35% mag boost at the moment i believe for two weeks [if i read right] so until then....

You will gain GRC at almost exactly the same rate whether in a pool or on your own. The key differences are:
The network runs best (and most securely) if everyone were to run their own full wallet node and staked their own POR. Of course, the pool offers many benefits for new miners which I am sure we are all aware of. It is best used as a stepping stone to help you on your journey from entering the word of GRC to becoming a solo miner.

I figured, i just wanted to see for myself and share a visual statistic and get some more GRC faster. Either way still doing science!

Respect for doing the experiment.
Solo if you can, its better for the security of Gridcoin and gives you a voice in the voting, and reduces the voting weight of the pool operator too...

I'm looking forward to see your results! I have similar magnitude/balance (20/3000+) and doing solo crunching - not earning much...

Hats off to you doing the experiment as being able to actually see and compare the results is great, a picture is worth and all that.
I've always run solo-crunching myself, pools with other things, and prefer the say in how things work that we get from being able to vote as solo-crunchers.

Yeah GRC is like the easiest crypto to do solo........as long as you have a high balance, and with voting i really havent seen much to vote on yet...

This "test" will result in nothing but disappointment. You are charged a certain % for being in a pool. Your payouts may be quicker in a pool and more consistent, however, they will not match the solo effort if you were to take it on alone, over a short period of time... I have heard that you need some GRC in your wallet to get a DPoR quicker, however, at 1,690 GRC, I am still waiting... you may be correct, however, I have always been solo; no need crunching and discovering and solving a math conjecture from 200 B.C. and not getting credit for it...
Just my thoughts

.005 grc = 5 sat, plus a donation really isnt hurting, and as stated yes on a pool you crunch for the owner instead of solo, but as you said 1690 balance looks like a stake every 2 months +/- so a balance of at least 10k will be great, and also like i said this is just a visual experiment to share, crunching GRC is already at a profit loss unless you have really cheap electricity or free, its all for science.
