How often does the difficulty change?

does mhash only determine the amount of shares processed? or does it make it harder to process shares

How often does the difficulty change?
Every 2016 blocks.

Not really comprehending what's your second question, sorry.
MHash determines the average time to find a share, higher the MHash, lower the average time.

Difficulty changes every 2016 blocks, which usually takes about 2 weeks or so.  Your mhash, when factored in with difficulty, will tell you about how many shares you'll get in a certain time frame.  Its all based on averages though, so you could be higher than the estimate or you could be lower or you could be spot on.
