Three blocks yesterday, one today(so far), and showing paid out 66.36798776 btc in the past 24 hours. All blocks are confirmed, still at 8 hour payout setting, and four more hours to go till 24 hours since my last payment. I think I might as well set it for 24 hours, could save them 0.0002 per day if they did pay me 3 times a day.

The last 24 hours includes 101 transactions for something less than 0.001, or 45 of them being at 0.0006*(there's nothing lower). This means, for 101 payouts out of the total of 833 payouts, the fee is about 1/6th the payment for about half those paid. To me that's a lot. So every six paid, you could pay one free, just with the transaction fees on those small payments. It doesn't seem big to some, but 0.0833 per payout run adds up fast, and will be something I never understand the need to do.

The intention was to never be a bank, I know, but please fix the payouts so people that want to be paid more often can be, without added costs to the pool. Requiring a minimum payout of 0.01 would have stopped 548 from being paid until a future run. Maybe a new minimum payout is the way to go, except on the last clean-out payment after the difficulty changes.
