I don't know a pool where this is a problem though, so..
Topic: Pool efficiency (Read 3246 times)
If a pool gets a lot of invalid blocks (say, the coding causes the pool to tell other bitcoin nodes about a found block only after a 120s delay, or it is connected to the network in a bad way) but doesn't pay for them, that's also less efficient.

theoretically all mining has the same chance any pool or non pooled mining rig in the end should all payout the same. the only way a pool can be more efficiently then another pool is by having better coding and network setup. if you get a lot of stale shares in a pool then you should switch to another one.
Better coding is what I'm takling about.
But does this only reflects on stale shares?

Is it possible that a pool might be more efficient mining than other?
I mean, deepbit charges a 3% fee. But if it's 3% more efficient than any other pool, it should be theoretical the same to use a no-fee pool than deepbit.
But what if deepbit is 5% more efficient?
