Thanks for the review!

I'd like to point a few things:

2 pools with 10% fee and coinosaurus with 5% accused of taking 8% by the other pools
This is no more accurate. Coinsaurus now publicly admits to have 8% fees built in the miner, via randomly diverted shares.
Those were not accusation by the other pools, but facts checked by the bismuth team.

I might be wrong in my review, but as miners you should run your own tests. And tune miners at best possible way..

Agreed.
Your tests may not reflect the current state of the pools rentability. Don't take a single test, done at different times, as a stable comparison.
If you really compare again, you'll see that your results now will be very very different from what you report.


Also, what do you mean by "most transparent"? What is not transparent in Eggpool, what could I improve?

I know you are working hard with miner and pool.. But what i found weird at your pool, is that it shows a flat hash rate, same as reported in miner and pool speed should be calculated by shares found not by miner itself... So when in some rounds i found very few shares(low speed at pool), lots of blocks where found. And rounds i found more shares(higher speed calculated) less blocks where found.. This could be solved by 2 hour rounds to even it out better, or maybe lower pool difficulty. It is more dependent with luck at current state of diff and rounds i believe, and not a 100% fair distribution of blocks found. As this happens a lot... I might be wrong man , not to old in this game but to me it looks unfair and luck are involved at payouts for each round..  But when in some rounds 12 shares found and other up to 24 its a lot with up to 50 % different for each round in shares found, would like to hear you opinion of this..  With lower diff the % would be way less if more shares where found..
You could also lower your fees
I also got significant improvment on other pools due to my main hash is AMD cards which your miner isn't very good at.
