Could you post the line from the p2pool program feed that looks like:
New work for worker! Difficulty: 0.000200 Share difficulty: 0.994552 Total block value: 50.210500 LTC including 10 transactions
It's still the same as mentioned above:
"New work for worker! Difficulty: 0.232827 Share difficulty: 5.000000 Total block value: 53.123000 LTC including 45 transactions" This is using: Usrnme/5+5
P2pool version is: 11.3 (I tried 11.4, that seemed to decrease my share rate further) Cgminer version: 3.1.0.
I'm receiving payouts. The odd behavior is receiving consistent share/payout per block of .45 LTC for 12+ hours, then it drops to .10 for another 12 + hours. This happens when the p2pool node has been operating fine, along with all the miners connected. Smooth & even hashrates. The overall pool hashrate has a mean score of 580MH/s. I would anticipate a much lower payout if the pool hashrate jumped to 1,200MH/s, but it stays within 100-150+- MH/s variance of the mean score. My efficiency is normally between 110%-120%.
Thank you for the reply.
He wants you to paste that requested line, without using any /#+# switches, so the dynamic difficulty values are shown.
Also, +5 is way too high, as shown by the "Difficulty: 0.232827"... that value being used is the upper max p2pool will use based on the current dynamic share diff.
Using +0.0001 would be a better choice than using +5 ... maybe +0.0005 if you have a lot of hashpower behind it.
Your share diff for scrypt is too high too. Even setting it to /1 is probably too high for scrypt.
