A bit off-track here, but does anyone know of a link or explanation for all the stats that the pool sites have? I'm thinking of things like target variance, average efficiency, rate est. etc.
efficiency for a p2pool that isn't set up solo (net2 & frozen = solo, doge = multi for mine) would theoretically be how much more DOGE you are earning off of people that are using p2pool and getting more DOA/orphans... just *the % more than you'd get off a 0% fee pool over the long term.
ofc you'd have to take your own DOA rates and apply those.. the pool is mostly responsible for orphans, the person mining is mostly responsible for any DOAs. generally speaking, as there are some exceptions to that rule
I solved a block earlier and the p2pool chain orphaned it, so it doesn't appear in the list. That's an example of a "lost share" actually solving a block and that's how you get your extra from higher efficiency
