Just moved to this pool today, whenever it switches coins my hash rate on the site drops back to zero then slowly builds up before switching to another coin. Am I overlooking something or is this wasting hashes? Also how long does it take the coins to show up?

Thanks

hello

new to the pool ....wanted to know why my hash rate in not accurately displayed on the dashboard its all over the place from 300 to 1400. i do around 1500kh/s constantly  ....does this mean we don't get hash rate of the coin/shares?less income for us ? 

thanks

The hash rate is calculated from something like the last 5 or 10 minutes of mining the current coin. After a switch the number goes to 0 because nobody has been mining that coin... I look at the ratio of pool hash ~1500MH/s to my has rate ~1.6MH/s to determine if anything is wrong. eg. if pool shows 450MH/s and my rate is around 400-500KH/s then I know everything is alright. All shares are counted it's just an issue with how the numbers are calculated to be displayed.

Why are Philosopherstone, CHNCoin and Netcoin always disabled? They are usually the highest profit coins shown on your site, but they have been disabled since I moved to this pool.

I suspect it has something to do with the exchanges, either there isn't enough demand for these coins to be able to trade them in a reasonable price range for a pool this large or something along those lines.
