Hello .

I have a question. I got 4 workers one GPU 8600GT turning out around 5000khash, another GPU - 7000 khash, 2 CPU turning out 4000khash resp. 2000khash. I usually get 0.01 BTC or lower per block found by the pool( ~0.3 BTC per day). Is this the normal payout :-/ ? Just asking .. cause it doesn't seem much for a day's work.

Thanks. have a nice day.

Here is an example [hope my math is correct]

From http://mining.bitcoin.cz/stats/ we can see about how many hashes per second the pool is doing, for example, right now: 64.040 Ghash/s
You are doing 5000 + 7000 + 4000 + 2000 = 18,000 kHash/s = 0.018 Ghash/s
Your % of the pools power = (100 / 64.040) * .018 = 0.0281074329%

From http://mining.bitcoin.cz/stats/graphs/ we can see the pool earned 1800 BTC on 2/15/2011
1800 * 0.000281074329 = 0.505933792 bitcoins

This assumes you did 18kHash for 24 hours straight on 2/15/2011, and the pool's power stayed the same the entire day (it doesn't), but it gives you a ballpark of what you can make.
