Anyone else have issues with their hash-rate not reporting correctly on the site?

I'm trying to test this pool with a lower-power machine I've got *coughalienwarelaptopcough* and I've got it hashing currently (due to needing a cleaning) at ~250 Khashes.

On the site, it fluctuates all over the place (ie from 80 to 220 usually), and often drops to 0 for a while here and there -- meanwhile I'm still connected to the pool and hashing away at those blazing speeds.

Is this an issue with the pool, or am I missing something?  I'd like to see some stability before moving any real hashing power over.

Got the same issue... this happens for quite a while now.
Although the pool ops say this doesn't affect payout, I'm not so sure about that. Payout has been quite poor the last days, even for my little hashpower.
I will look out for alternatives...

If you look on the site somewhere you'll see something like this "Refresh interval: 60 seconds. Hashrate based on shares submitted in the past 1 minutes." The reason it bounces all over is because they're taking an average of how many accepts you've gotten in "X" amount of time. So over 1 minute increments for example, one minute you have 15 valid, and the next minute you only have 9 valid. Your hash rate will change accordingly on the site, although on your end the real speed hasn't moved at all. It's a common question I've seen people ask on here so hope it helps. Have a great day.
