-Q: The Queue total at the top is much more than the sum of all the Queued
-values in each device.
-A: The per-device queue value is only incremented when that device has
-requested work over any buffered amount of work, so with fewer devices this
-value may stay very small.
-
-Q: The Queue never increases on my card but the efficiency keeps going up, how
-can the efficiency be so high?
-A: Efficiency is defined as the accepted shares returned over the number of
-work items requested. Cgminer generates a lot of work locally, and has a
-buffer of "global" queued work meaning the device may hardly ever be requesting
-work itself. Thus the number of work items requested may be very small yet the
-GPU may still have plenty of work, creating accepted shares from them. Thus the
-"efficiency", by that definition, becomes extremely high.

Q: Work keeps going to my backup pool even though my primary pool hasn't
failed?
A: Cgminer checks for conditions where the primary pool is lagging and will
