both of your pools count shares sended by clients so real CPD does not matter?
Pool reject shares with wrong target (less than current difficulty). Without it, you can set target="6" and generate 81 times more shares without blocks. Why pool must pay for this shares?i was talking about valid shares, not interest in cheating.
what i saw is that xpmclient 10.2 with target=10 generates more shares than same client with target=11 for the same difficulty.
i didn't direct compare it with xpmclient9.4.1 but it seems that is better to force old xpmclient until EOL.

What happens if I will use invalid target settings?
You will get less profit:
* difficulty < 10.994 and target="11": miner will generate less amount if shares.
* difficulty > 10.994 and target="10": big amount of shares will be marked as invalid.

When pool switches to "11ch" mode, it begin reject shares from xpmclient with target="10", because it's cheating same as target="9","8" etc. Now pool again in 10ch mode until 10.994 difficulty, best option now is using target="10" and wait xpmclient 10.2.1 release.
I try release xpmclient 10.2 and switch pool to "11ch" at 10.991 difficulty, but less than 10% miners install xpmclient 10.2 or put target="11" to config.txt, all others continue using old settings. I decide that miners don't ready and make rollback.
