Side note; hey Tycho (anyone really) my lowly HD 5670 cranks out a pretty steady 65 Mhashes / sec but today at work I noticed while watching my stats it varying as high 100 and as low as 30.  I guess mebbe this has been asked before, apologies if I'm being repetitive.  If so mebbe someone could simply point me to an FAQ?
You are looking on the site?  Don't fret about the hash rate show on the site.  It is pretty much of psychological value only; it does reflect accepted shares during a window, but it is not particularly useful data beyond mind candy
I call it "luck meter" because it shows your hashrate, affected by your personal luck. So if you see high rate for some time it means that you are really getting more shares then.

Doesn't the size of "Other" on the Bitcoin Watch pie chart bother anybody?  That is  clearly the reason for the spike in blocks per hour.  Somebody brought an IMMENSE amount of hardware online just before the difficulty increase.

Yeah that definitely caught my eye.  Perhaps Vladimir hooked up the massive stack of 6990's he posted pics of in the "Show Your Mining Rig" thread.

You are looking on the site?  Don't fret about the hash rate show on the site.  It is pretty much of psychological value only; it does reflect accepted shares during a window, but it is not particularly useful data beyond mind candy (which is why I set my window to 5 minutes ... I like to see the high spikes and low dips regularly).  More important is to watch your miner and its hash rate, watch the accepted and rejected count and match it up to what the pool indicates.  On some pools, this can be difficult [and if you use poclbm miner, it doesn't show the running totals like phoenix, so you must tally miner stats another way such as logging the console and parsing it].  I worry more that my hash rate on my miners is good [which should stay pretty constant if that is all your machine is doing] and that the stats on the miners match the stats on the pool.  Or, rely on blind trust.  I can vouch for deepbit when I say that it has never missed a share [accepted or rejected].  I thought it had once, but it turned out that GUIMiner (20110323 I think) was showing more than it should; I use only command line miners now.  I use poclbm for my 6970 and phoenix for my 5850s (you can try to figure out why if you like  Lips sealed).

Now main stats table shows the number of your submitted shares per each block, including PPS workers.
I wondered when you would get around to that :).  It is a curiosity only for me [at the moment], but that should stop all those "Why didn't I get paid and it says 'None'" questions.  I asked that question once upon a time very early on [for me]
Currently only the number of shares is shown for PPS workers, not the reward.

its been ~15 minutes and I've yet to see payment from my last payout... kinda strange

Are you using the new bitcoin client 0.3.22 or an older version?  It shouldn't matter in practice, but 0.3.22 is being adopted rather slowly, so the peers linking up happens slowly as well and that may have something to do with it.  I think size of the payout can have an effect to [if you paid out 0.01BTC, it would get thrown at the end of the queue for signing into a block ... although I think you should still see it with 0 confirmations in your client].  Most of the time it is instantaneous from deepbit and one other pool that I have used with instant payout, but every now and again, there is a delay and I wonder if something went wrong, but it always appears.  If you haven't locked down your address, it is probably a good idea to glance at it to make sure it is the same before you payout Smiley

This was just a glitch caused by very short averaging window after difficulty adjustment. Happens each time.

Set your own averaging window to 30-60 minutes in pool's advanced settings page.

Testing
:/ That kind of worries me, because my client is still not showing it
How many blocks should my client read? I'm at 129074 and 1 connection... I'm getting worried!
Current block is 129077.
Usually it won't be confirmed until the next block is found by the pool.

And I'll repeat - if you see this transaction in the payments table, you WILL receive it.
You can also check http://bitcoincharts/bitcoin to see if it's still in the queue.

I was just worried that I missed something.. I reinstalled Windows on Sunday and copied over the appdata folder for bitcoin. I've done that 3- times now and it worked just this time has been weird


anyhow, the client updated to block 129078 and its good now, I got my big payment Smiley seems I need more patience Tongue !

This is possible. I saw your payment in the log Smiley

I downloaded poclbm.exe and am able to solo mine but even after regitering at deepbit.net when I run my batch file I get the error "wrong login or password." I've double checked my username and password and am 100% they're correct. Here is my batch command:
Code:
start /DC:\Bitcoin\poclbm poclbm.exe -d1 --host=pit.deepbit.net --port=8332 [email protected] --pass=password --platform=1 -v -w128

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

All looks correct, so username or password is suspect.  Be sure you're entering a matching username/password pair if you have set up multiple workers on deepbit.net.  User becomes [email protected]_0, etc for subsequent workers.
I was using my account password and not my worker password(which wasn't yet set.) I got confused because account and user name is the same. Works now, thanks for the help!

To be safe rather than sorry [although the chances are small], I would change your account password if I were you.  Your account password was sent in the clear.  Like I said, the chances it was sniffed are very small, but I don't like taking chances when money is involved and when changing a password is such an easy thing to do.

Type it all manually and in a command window and look at the errors.  Why are you setting the platform switch [that is almost always never needed]?  Are you sure the device is 1 and not 0?  I suspect -d0 may be the proper value if you are using Windows.   Linux, it tends to be 1.
