Just a pol how many of the profit switching pools do you use? We have 9 Pre-configured.

Does anyone use them all set and forget kinda?

Is there any statistical best practices?

If not using a particular one why?

Im not using Mining Dutch Ive had alot of issue like shares not found for extended periods and once i enabled "adjust reported revenue for actual payout performance". All my rigs were showing less than $1 per card or about 6-8 per day on 1070 1080 and 1070ti . Yet the profit profile still showed most profitable. I guess Id like to just use as few as possible for simpler management and reporting but also dont want to leave money on the table.

Nicehash a little with older PC
Zpool yes
MPH only for some specific coins without convert
Ahaspool yes
Hash Refinery NOT
ZergPool NOT
Mining Dutch Absolutely NOT
Blazepool and Block Masters ... I have not tried them

Yiimp.eu, BSOD... and some more for especific coins.

in addition, the more you enable, the more hashrate you distribute among them, means longer wait for payout ...etc, of course, it's not a problem if you have enough hashpower to mitigate that. But a hobby miner, forget about it.

Your problem with mining dutch is probably the predefined used high diff ports (some nicehash ports even) in the online services, so...naturally, you don't find shares as often...you can manually change them to the vardiff ports or even low diff if you have mid-tier hardware/rigs setup.

**Just a hobby Miner**
< 10 GPU (Statistics, 24h actual, adjust checked, switch interval threshold as you see fit but probably 10m/3~5%)

stick with your favourite auto-exchange pools, GorDiE gives a good choice

**Imagining you're a surfer, riding difficulty waves and get the most out of it, not for tech faint hearted**
Personally for non-autoexchangers only and ppl with >10 GPU (hashrate of GTX 1060 or GTX 1070 on average) (statistics, Current, no Adjust, 5m/5~15%)(User Defined pool groups recommended, avoid PPLNT, PPLNS, most yiimps are PROP, must use soothaa's plugin or similar, must use rule to manual profit switch based on revenue/profit)

NiceHash - Yes (it's PPS, and works well with occassional dual mine Ethash coins, less hassel to setup those 2nd tier dual algos, you hash slow one 2ndary, no need to try accumulate them fast as they don't for small time miners)
Everything Else - No (Use pool groups)

**imagining you're occasional adventurous type who likes to gamble your luck a bit**
Auto-Exchangers and minimal effort > 20 GPU (hashrate of GTX 1060 or GTX 1070 on average) (just hypothesising, I don't fit in here, 24h estimate, adjust uncheck, switch 10m/3~5%)

Hash on any predefined pools you like since reaching minimum payout isn't an issue and stick with ones that works for you in terms of how much you trust them (in simple words, if you reckon pools are scamming your or stealing your hashrate and doing dishonest payout conversions, just avoid them, due to variation of mining luck/difficulty, ppl tends to have quite a varying opionions about which one is the best..so best that you take them with a grain of salt and decide for yourself after trying them out personally)

I Actually Have 68 GPUs 8 Rigs
20XRX 580 2 Rigs
16X1070 2 Rigs
8X1070ti
8X1080ti
8X1080
8XVEGA 56

I just Checked the Adjust today i am on switch 10m/5%. Im looking to keep it as simple and as possible even if its a little more to congfig initially. What I have going on now seems like a shit show thats impossible to really track. Gonna start by disabling a few.
I appreciate the insight and experience

If I have your equipments and wish for simplicity, I would do the following:
Use 24h Actual, check Adjust, Use NiceHash (especially for your VEGA rig), there are almost no cryptonight autoexchange pools, so unless you want to get messy in the current foreseeable fork mania on the CN coins then check out https://cryptoknight.cc/ (I'm not endorsing them, in fact haven't used them but planning to include when I gets the chance, they seem pretty active tracking the
CN coins situation), else, MPH only does XMR which doesn't leave much room for optimization, but stable enough income should be generated from the VEGAs. Again, MPH and NiceHash for Ethash if you don't want to go through the hassle of getting messy with the different coins out there (and no AutoExchange)

you'll not have much problems reaching payout on any of the other predefined pools, so depends on how much you like each and everyone of them...zpool at least offer Equihash pool, I had issues with MPH (along with some other users) on Equihash that they sometimes block a few of my machines from their equihash pools ending up with wasted mining effort, some misconfigured connection/DDoS protection maybe.

@moppidoo Would I add pools from https://cryptoknight.cc/ to online services? Or just add all the pools i want and create a group then add group in profit switching. looks like i also have to add some coins since for instance SUMO not showing in AM.
