Well there are some things in slush method that I couldn't find described anywhere and I figure them out or someone told me on IRC.

One if a worker goes offline for more then 30 minuts don't turn it on agen till end of a block. If you do restart it it will reset scores for all the workers. I don't get why we have this one. So I just start it with a diffident username from the working worker or put it on a backup PPS pool till the end of a block...

If you have a slow miner(CPU) it can affect your payouts dramaticly(probably because it didn't send any results in for 30 minutes). And never in a good way from my experiences(OK it could be also good but so small that I didn't notice)... I get more since I stop CPU mining with separate worker... I just add a CPU on a GPU worker and it is fine...(I know waist of electricity but I don't pay it per KWh).

So this is just my 2 cents in help for new users...

So what you are saying is - it is better to have 1 fast worker then fast worker and a slow worker? Hmm... maybe that explains how my return varies from block to block for up to 30% even though I do not turn off my workers and their speed doesn't change. Under current algorithm it seem to be better to assign slower workers to some PPS pool Huh

Or assign your worker to the same account...
