LP=longpoll?
"This request is not answered by server until it wishes to expire current block data, and new data is ready. The answer is the same as getwork on the main connection. Upon receiving this answer, miner should drop current calculation in progress, discard its result, and start working on received data and make a new request to a long polling URI."
I think you misunderstood me DAcc + DRej + (sum of Disc * difficulty) = Diff1
With the parenthesis I meant a quantity "DDisc", like DAcc and DRej , so the sum of these three converging parameters would eventually converge to Diff1
In this light would DAcc / Diff1, as a ratio between the convergent quantities, give after some period of time an indication of the quality of the pool?
PS Maybe the luck of the pool could skew results but if there is some consistency in detecting a difference between the ratios of two pools -all else equal- for a long time period, it could mean a better pool setup/efficiency/uptime, but I am beginning to get lost in all these.. :-)
No to the above.
I have already said it in my last post so I am wasting my time repeating it but ...
Discarded is meaningless. Yes it is. Ignore it. OK?
Luck is ... luck.
Here, take a course to learn a bit about statistics.
Some important terms: sample, population, probability, variance.
No I don't give courses in statistics - I failed a statistics course at university ... twice
