except sometimes those stales that solve blocks... are, well, a stale right after a block was found. re the shenanigans that go on when switching from one block to another
not sure if p2pool would proceed along it's own chain or not? either way, it's a block that'll most likely be orphaned. that's when the slow getblocktemplate matters
Bullshit.
After heaps of messages on this subject on this very thread (last was mine a few messages ago) you still don't understand that p2pool doesn't rely on getblocktemplate result being available to build the coinbase miners are working on.
p2pool is connected to the bitcoin P2P network and detects blocks
before a getblocktemplate result is available for the new block and present a valid coinbase to miners ASAP. So there's
absolutely no reason a "stale p2pool share" block would have more chance of being orphaned than any other block.
