Are you mining solo or in a pool? (Short answer: Your CPU must be able to do one hash per second for every 13 block erupters you have, approximately.)

running on pool. my problem is if insufficient diff nonce is recalculated by CPU? i guess not, but need insurance.

does cgminer re-calculate every nonce from ASIC?
