What makes you think deepbit wouldnt ban you faster for hopping than ars or eligius?

based on my understanding of how your pool delays stats i am not quite figuring out how they can do this.
are they assuming if a block is solved and they cannot figure out who did it via screen scraping or an api.. it
must be deepbit?

or do you possibly know something i do not?

There are some possible options, but usually they don't give 100% true resuts.
The fact that they don't show it for everyone is a bit suspicious, by the way.

All pool hashrate jumps and dips are visible to me, so if poolhopping will cause a considerable loss for my users, I'll take appropriate actions.

If it is just a backup, and it's just a user-set option it will not cause a considerable loss for his users. Tycho hasn't yet banned for hopping.

Also, prop at deebit is 3% fee, SMPPS is non-variance 0% fee at arsbitcoin.

Not sure at what hashrate you are mining but if 1BTC min withdrawal at arsbitcoin is to much, then I assume you arnt hashing fast.

I'm hashing 2.3-2.6Gh/s so it's not super fast, but it's not nothing.

EDIT:
I guess I want to compare a couple days with ARS as backup to DB as backup to see if the rapid payout rounds from DB make a difference.
