When going to fix it?
In periods of low difficulty are permanent orphans.


this is due to multipool & other switching pools pop in at low diff so the network goes crazy. there is no fix for that except making diff to adjust faster.
Had no idea that was happening when the flash mining occurs. Crazy.
Thinking out loud: Do you think that a bunch of p2pool nodes could combat this? P2Pools have an advantage when it comes to orphans since each node concurrently announces a found block. So if we had 100 nodes it would be 100 to 1 in the favor of p2pool against an orphan.
