tonight the pool hashrate could be back up to 250TH.  That kind of swing in hashrate is as disruptive as a DDOS attack.

Why's that? As long as you're mining (and there's no evidence that hashrate swings affect the pool), your earnings only depend on your hashrate and the current difficulty.
Who mentioned earnings
This was a question about pool hash rate.

If your earnings aren't affected, why is it "as disruptive as a DDOS attack"?

my earnings are 1/3 what they were just 2 week ago because of increasing pool hash rate and difficulty increase. when I started here pool was 8 now were looking at 250... Roll Eyes
