Hi there. On the faq

5.Will I get paid more on the proxypool than on P2Pool?

If you weren't getting paid every time P2Pool finds a block, then the proxypool will ensure you get paid your fair share (more than what you'd get on P2Pool). If you don't have trouble with payout on P2Pool, then the proxypool will give you more consistent payouts.

That's incorrect about small miners. You don't earn less on p2pool if you aren't finding shares often enough to cover every block, because your share's values are high enough to average it out long-term. For example, if your speed only allows you to get 1 share per week, the math works out that your share will earn you (on average) 1 week worth of coins for your hash rate. The proxy pool reduces this variance, but it doesn't pay more.

Also any plans for sha256 support? Smiley I'd also like to suggest DGM as an alternate payment method.
