What is up with the large swings in average TH/s per shift? Why does is it swing that much?

NetDomain hashrate move from 150TH to 900TH.

What would the explanation for that be? One that makes economic sense. That was more my question.

Only him can answer that, unless he's running after luck.

I have never seen a swing that large but he was obviously renting. I was renting at the same time on the same site and seeing their hash rate drop as I increased mine. Depending which rental site they are using it can swing easy if he is being outbid. Some rental sites you rent/hour and others you pay a certain amount and if you are highest you get it. Others can outbid you.

Oo the economics of it I'm up over 200% on my renting in the last few days (2 btc in and 4.2 btc out) so if they are going after the same thing I am then I can understand. It is definitely luck chasing though. If we hit back to back reds then I would be down. But it does only really take 1 block to almost break even. If we hit 2 or more it is all bonus money. it all depends on how much you pay for the rentals.

AS you can also see both them and myself renting have not actually helped hit a block either. At least not the way that I think of blocks anyways. We did work to solve blocks but didn't specifically find one ourselves.
