All Casinocoin P2Pool operators should update to the latest version at https://github.com/CartmanSPC/p2pool
SHARE_PERIOD was lowered from 15 to 5 and TARGET_LOOKBEHIND from 200 to 60
The lower share period should allow more shares to be available to miners. The lower target lookbehind should allow the pool to adjust difficulty based on hash rate faster.
gururise and Rav3nPL worked on the new settings to better optimize the pool...Thanks goes out to them!
-----------------
Just as a reminder P2Pool is decentralized so if one node gets taken down the rest are not affected. There are no accounts or coins stored by the pool. No confirmations to wait for....your coins are sent to you as soon as a block is found. Every block found is simultaneously announced across all the wallets in the P2Pool so there are less orphans encountered.
The source code is freely available for you to start your own P2Pool node that you can keep private for your personal mining needs. You wont need to trust any pool operators or their ability to keep the pool running.
I believe P2Pool is beneficial to maintain the security of the blockchain.
