Stale points in Flexfarmer

hi, can someone help me unravel the mystery why I have a large amount of stale?
I use compact C7 plots with GigaHorse and I am farming with Flexfarmer

Do you use ubuntu?
Do you have a GPU?
In the log what does it show for the stales?
Do you have any disk errors?

Set difficulty to 18+ and use a GPU to farm

Either too much compression and not enough hardware (as others said consider switching to GPU or replotting to a lower C level), or the difficulty of the farmer is set too low which increases the workload beyond what’s necessary.

Yes Ubuntu Server
Yes RTX3080
Yes
No disk erros

how do i change the difficulty?
I thought that with Flexfarm it would not be necessary to farm with a GPU, only for plotting

Settings on top right of the flexpool webpage

The info requested to change the difficulty, u can find it @ chia software.

Go to your flexpool worker page and click settings or the gear icon

Did you remember to install the gpu drivers?
ubuntu-drivers autoinstall
…something like that?

I think up to about c4 c5 is about it for cpu farming .

This is a tiny farm so cpu is possible. Makes me think plotting might be still going on and causing the stales
