Hi,
Recently Nanopool announced that they increased share difficulty by x2.
I`ve made a comparison with ethermine in a 15m time frame and the result is obvious.
On ethermine the number of shares in 15 min are 75 and on nanopool the number of shares in 16m are 28.
Here are the two print-screens with my results.

Ethermine difficulty is way too low for the amount of people on it so you get like 5-20% stale shares because you are submiting work that has already been solved.

Increased difficulty does increase variance.  Maybe you need a longer sample time.  There may be other differences between the two pools too.

Oh sorry, could a moderator move the topic to ethereum mining ?

Anyway, the number of shares are not still correlating ...

So what.  Increasing the difficulty of shares the pool accepts decreases the load on the pool and nothing else.

Are these pools Bitcoin pools?  You are in the Bitcoin section so the discussion should be on Bitcoin.
