Hi ya all,

It is not a complain, but I have been noticing last months, that every time that pool's hashrate has a huge hop (like >20TH/s) we are experiencing problems of "stolen" blocks or long rounds (>6h). The last 48h is another example. Hope this new hardware Slush implemented is going to kill this glitches with time.

Salute all Slusher's.

It's not a hardware issue on Slush's end. During long rounds, many people will hop to other pools. You'll see a drop in hashing power which means that there's less chance to find a block compounding the problem. Also, the hash rate is fluid meaning it can vary even if no miners came or went. Hardware errors, vardiff, etc. play a factor in determining the hash rate the pool recognizes.

Well, if you were right, then the hashrate would have a decrease in those long rounds which is not. 700+ keeps on.

I don't point to hardware issue,but seems kind of overloading. If your read to this post often, you should have notice that since this was on 380GH some glitches started to appear, and coming up to this "hardware upgrade". Hope with this, pool has resilence for a long time. but there are some ISP related issues pointed last week that cannot be ignored.

What I'm talking about are those "none" rounds, stolen blocks (by ghash.io mostly), worker hashrate variance, very long rounds, variance in score results, variance between round logs from peer to peer, etc.... I'm user of SLUSH's pool (not our's, but his) pool, and I think for a 2% fee we deserve the best beyond an admin that is not present even on his forum (even when he recovered his access, beyond support questions).

Talking about 2% fee. My math perhaps might be not good, but WE are making around 1500 BTC per week which means:

1500 BTC * 2 / 100 = 30 BTC WEEKLY!!!

I mean, I am not talking about profit or something else. But for around 100.000$ monthly (rounded pondered value last months). WE deserve the best pool in the world. [SLUSH I hope you are reading this and comment about]
