I'm going to be running some comparison tests but watching the way zpool does its payouts I don't think 24 hours is long enough to get a fair comparison. I think you probably need two or three days for the payouts to stabilize because if you're mining an algo that has a lot of coins, you can have a lot of credit locked up in a half different coin accounts and the payouts are a little wavy even though the input hashpower is constant.

If you have a very small mine it might take more than a few days to get to that point where it's stable.

Miningpoolhubstats is somewhat similar in that only the "Payout Last 24 Hours" for your payout coin really seems to be relevant and it takes a few days to get that number stable before you can see what it actually happening.

The apparent 20% fee may just be because you have about 20% of your coins in other coins that have not reached the thresholds needed to get traded to your payout coin. If you let it hash a couple days you'll have everything topped off and your input hashpower should equate to your output payments.

One thing I like about Miningpoolhub is that you can manually get payments on all your other coins to empty your account so you don't have to wait for them to automatically get traded out. On zpool it looks like it's only automatic trading to get the accounts emptied. Not a big deal but it's a slight difference.

From the testing I've done zpool is the overall best option for me. The people saying it takes a 20% fee are wrong IMO. They need to do a longer test with a significant amount of hashpower, like 2 or 3 rigs worth, in order to handle the fact that zpool has a lot of your coins in different accounts which means the payout will widely fluctuate if you're using just one or two cards.

I like Miningpoolhub but it doesn't have the algorithm I want to mine. Zpool is more resilient to losses due to market fluctuations than straight mining so it is currently my pool of choice.

One thing I don't like about zpool is it pays out every 2 hours so you may get a lot of transaction payout fees. I like that Miningpoolhub lets you set a payout threshhold. However overall zpool makes me the most money at the moment so that's what i'm going with.
