If I see those scores after testing, why use "mine_slush"
Detail: I always have 1 card @ 120Mhash/s pointed to the same worker @ Slush.

When bitHopper is mining on a pool and there is a problem, why does it hop to the backup pool while there's another pool available?
I'm using altslice.
I'm using altslice.
Regarding the bitclocker issues: I don't think they slow down or disturb hoppers connections. Their server is just totally overloaded or in any other way can't handle things.
is this the reason too that I have <= 3% rejected and bithopper always disconnects from bitclocker?Yep, that is the reason it always disconnects from bitclockers. Right now they appear to be completely down to me.
Then why does cherrypicker hop them flawlessly with .4% stales? Its obviously an issue with the way bithopper works.
There's not much to hop right now 
That gave me the time to put bitHopper on each of my 3 rigs.
Now I can experiment with it a bit more and would be a problem with one rig, the others are still hopping

cgminer has a really cool way to change pools while mining so I switched manually to bitclocker. It gives me few connection errors here an there but shares are submitted and I get new work.

hehe nope, nothing and no one prohibits that but atm is not really a priority and this behavior is considered somehow normal for allot of programs and scripts, you're welcome to contribute on this project if you like

cirz8 you could try changing to bH dir before launching it, like this:
absolute path detection it's not enabled for all the bH files like the html pages
Code:
cd /home/user/bithopper/bin/bitHopper/ && ./bitHopper.py --scheduler=AltSliceScheduler

Not sure if it's a bug or what it is, but if you start bitHopper from some other directory using a command like this

Yeah, that is the issue. As soon as bitHopper gets an empty/invalid getwork reply or hits a timeout it switches the pool. Not sure if this is the correct spot, but something like this might work:

i have answered here: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.437154
I got it to work by removing the phatk2 keyword. I'm answering here and not in the other thread because this highlights that there is a problem with bithopper and bitclockers. I have 7 miners and bithopper didn't stop showing bitclockers as red and always switching away from it until I got the very last miner off of it and was mining through flower1024/poclbm.
At first I thought it might be due to the fact that with flower1024/poclbm, there are (in my case) 7 different source ports and 7 different TCP/IP connections whereas with bithopper there is one. But why was I still getting problems with only one miner connected to bithopper?
I've been running 14 minutes now and have zero rejects on bitclockers. I do miss the information bithopper gave me though (rounds submitted for example).
Regarding the bitclocker issues: I don't think they slow down or disturb hoppers connections. Their server is just totally overloaded or in any other way can't handle things.
is this the reason too that I have <= 3% rejected and bithopper always disconnects from bitclocker?Yep, that is the reason it always disconnects from bitclockers. Right now they appear to be completely down to me.

Regarding the bitclocker issues: I don't think they slow down or disturb hoppers connections. Their server is just totally overloaded or in any other way can't handle things. There is the utility httping, which is like a ping over HTTP. It measures the time to get a response from the webserver. Using this utility I get from multiple! locations pings like ~0.6s to their main webserver and pings like 3-5 seconds to their pools. I guess they are just unable to set up proper working services, and it affects hoppers as well as their normal miners.

with my poclbm mod i am running at 0.28% and 0.33% stales (only twominers running).
and still using the nicer stats grabbing and pool decisions from bitthopper
and still using the nicer stats grabbing and pool decisions from bitthopper
so you arent using cherry picker.. just modded poclbm and bithopper?
yes,
my poclbm-mod connects to bithopper and loads a pool list from there.
it checks the page every three seconds and switches (with no stale or rejects) to the new bithopper-current
you'll lose the worker management and submitted shares display in bithopper (and it sometimes shows an exception on a flaky connection - which could safely be ignored [just had no time to fix it right now])
btw. i am working on this atm: http://miner.k1024.de
its pre pre pre alpha. only thing that works:
a nice stats page where two bithopper instances pushes their round share information.
they are both running on different networks - just to make sure the pools dont start playing "whats your ip" with us
(suggestions are welcome)
