I keep 75% of my miners here and the other 25% (anywhere but ghash.io) for variance. This way when we have a bad day or two at this pool, I still have income from the other. I do think a pool like Discus Fish with PPS is good for a back up pool incase your normal pool goes down. Take from everyone's experience that pool hopping doesn't work with PPLNS & vardiff these days or we would ALL be doing it. This link is a good comparison of some other pools. (Note that they are comparing p2pool NOT p2pool.org)

We have lost over 700,000 Ghash/s in the past week...
If i look at the pools stats ; 4818196.535 Ghash/s
About a week ago was hanging around 5500000 and 5600000 ... not 4800000 like right now..

Well.....I have a Jupiter asic at 550gh....it is kinda sorta hanging in there..but probably I will pull the plug in sept 2014
so...could it be that their are enough asicminer usb/avalon/bfl 65mm stuff etc etc out there that now that Summer
is here ...everyone just said it was not worth the electric bill and hassle and pulled the plug?
Searing
I suspect people are piling into Ghash to fight the wild variance swings.
And now DiscusFish has enabled English translation, I imagine they're picking up a lot of people interested in PPS.
I like Slush's pool very much but still I couldn't decide where to mine. Can you tell me which pool is better? Slush's or Ghash.io or DiscusFish?
Kindly,
MZ
Been here since March and wouldn't mine anywhere else, other pools are just backup but that is me. Don't want to start the >50% debate but anywhere but Ghash. Running just shy of 5TH

4 more to come ...

Slush pool is doing great considering the recent difficulty and hash power increases!
And now lots of luck hunters have gone, our find rate will increase - always happens...
Indeed. I tend to "set it and forget it" when it comes to my BTC miners and Slush pool.
So long as they are still mining and being reported on my dashboard, I am cool.
Every pool has their luck, whether good/bad/indifferent, lol.
Patience is a BIG part of mining, even when mining gold, diamonds and platinum...takes time to uncover those rich veins hidden by layers upon layers of rock!

I noticed that too, and your are right seems like every time we loose a nice chunk we start solving blocks a lot quicker.

Someone put the whammy on Slush , cant find a short block anywhere, cripes, this isn't even covering the electric bill.........
I don't know a 16 min block is pretty quick. Did you check the luck, as someone reminded me a day or so ago we have been pulling 100% or better for the last several weeks which is pretty good?

All these new chips seem not to overclock well. The manufactures will have to use more chips at a lower clock to have something very stable. Also, I read most of the batches have 2-5% or higher of bad chips. This same problem is happing to several manufacturers of new miners right now. Mabey better firmware will help as it comes out.

Wow it really looks like Bitmain dropped the ball on these.
ALL the S1's were rock solid and everybody got the same hash rate. Plus everyone could overclock if you so desired.
These S3's have hash rates all over the board. Some work right some dont.
My units are running at 440 GH right out of the box with stock clock.
Guess I was lucky, but luck shouldn't have anything to do with it.
Wonder if they will fix these problems or just keep pumping out defective units ?

Just got my first 2 Antminer S3 up and running :-)
2 more coming tomorrow.
2 more coming tomorrow.
Got my 2 last Thursday, wishing I had ordered more now. Hashes less than originally expected but very well built, runs a lot cooler, and not nearly as loud.
OC those bad boys! People are reporting ~500 Gh/s and an increase of about 40 watts when overclocked
Unfortunately those are few and far between if you have been following the S3 thread. More are in the 420 to 440 range and having to drop to the 212 freq. I did manage to get one that was averaging around 420 up to the 440 to 450 range by re-flashing the firmware.
