@testbug: can i use for payout also a exchange wallet adress from Bittrex?

you can use any valid address for payout.

Yes, even exchange address should be working: because minimum payout amount is 10VRM and the pools wallet is paying fees like every other "normal" wallet too.

....
Why not just force everyone onto VarDiff?


Because i have encountered the following problem:
Vardiff is readjusting every 90s difficulty with a factor 30% up or down. If the pool is running under very high CPU load, some of the shares are getting rejected. This is bad vor vardiff because the proxy is thinkin that the user is actually mining slower. Then he will readjust difficulty, decreasing it by 30%. Then CPU load is going down again, more shares are submitted because of lower difficulty --> share rate going up again. This is creating a part of high CPU load on the server. Also sometimes the difficulty went to slow and i saw, shares getting rejected because submitted shares are too small.

We will see how difficulty adjustments will go with new settings, after yesterdays changes the cpu load decreased in a factor by 3 with same hashing rate on it, but today much more hashrate and again high cpuload due to too many shares submitted.
Also some ppl messaged me that they need/want static difficulties too. I might implement some different vardiff ports in the near future for small / mid / big miners.
I hope you understand what i tryed to say Wink


***edit 07:05:58 PM*** poolinat0r.com - VRM pool
Changes on difficulty ports have been made. I am monitoring CPU load over the next hour, if i see improvement it's good if not i might readjust difficulty once more this evening. The next change would happen on 9:00pm forum time.
