p2pool is not ment to run as other pools are running.
everyone can run his very own p2pool node, all connect together, that is the p2pool magic.
it can handle nearly every coin well, so its not a thing of small or big payouts. Miners do get the payout directly when the coin is mined -and everyone connected to the same P2pool netowrk gets his part. The 6 hour period seems to be working fine, i let it run for another 24 or 48 hours.

currently settings:

merged mining- however is more a luck thing, mine for free on the children network , but : SOLO
or at least only with that what you have on the node - merged mined blocks *can* be sent to all miners on the node, there is no functionality or what so ever to do that automatic.

So, rentig a rig - even with really hard hashpower - might bring no result at all -
the merged coins do have really big hashpower behind them.
even with 1000 mh (1 GH) the chance to mine a block is minimal .

example Dogecoin:
1 GH Hashrate: (1 GH/s = 1000 MH/s = 1000000 kH/s )
estimated Days to generate one block mining solo: 7.26 Day(s)
Current network hashrate Dogecoin: 10.71 TH/s

all known coins that have aux pow included do run with a similar hashrate. -
so yeah you can do it, but it is luck in the end -

edit: seems Peseta has merged mining included, downloading blockchain right now. - might be mineable in some hours.
