Haven't used this for a bit and trying again. I notice at least with Zergpool, it is restarting the miner after the time interval. So even if it stays on the same algo, it still stops and restarts the miner.
Please share additional details on this. Is the mining software crashing and Awesome Miner restart it? Or is it the profit switcher that makes a pool change (the pool can change even if the algorithm is the same), then right click on the miner and select View Details to get more insight about the recent changes to the profit switcher.
