Re: [ANN][POOL] ZERGPOOL.com - NEW!Multialgo, autoexchange, 0% fee, 160+ coins
I'm chill. 
I want to be a supporter and miner of Zergpool. I dig the 0% fees. I just want to understand the situation of my pending dropping enough to offset the chart with a little bit of a nosedive (whatever was being exchanged probably tanked by the time it made it through confirmations and got exchanged. I'm also curious about what would seem like a slightly higher amount of slippage in the pending amounts.
I wrote a little app that checks my balance every few minutes just to compare. Any while it may be apples to oranges in some regards, there definitely seems to be considerably more slippage at Zergpool right now than the others that I've tried. Zpool comes next with smaller slippage, but still enough to be noticeable. Others are more in line with what I would expect - some very slight slippage/gain based on exchange rates as coins are confirmed and exchanged - probably due to larger pools being able to complete blocks and therefore get to and complete the exchange process faster as well or even something like different coins taking longer/shorter for confirmations.
This says to me (and I'm just making a complete guess) that Zergpool is either not big enough yet to dump the exchange the coins fast enough to avoid the slippage, or suffering from some other aspect causing the higher than expected slippage. It's still small numbers but after mining for a couple of hours and then stopping to watch the pending dwindle down over the next 90+ minutes, it was enough to be noticeable.
I'm only comparing a small sample set of around ~6 pools and small time amounts, so it's not scientific or anything. I understand there's a myriad of factors that can influence it. It'd just be nice to know - esp if there's a factor that we can change to our advantage such as picking a different coin more likely to get confirmed faster, or with a shorter TTF, or that Zergpool finds/processes faster.
TLDR: I just like getting the whole picture.
