Slush vs Deepbit

[rjk]

Wouldn't Slush be better then?

It's 2% Fee Prop and no PPS?

Proportional is only good if you are a hopper. Everyone else loses.

I'll second that.

If you want a steady, reliable pay-out every day then go with a PPS pool with the lowest fee.

If you want to participate in runs of good luck then pick a mining pool that doesn't reward hopping.  Prop is only fair if you're a hopper.

My deepbit is timing out, first time i've seen this for two weeks

If you want a pure PPS pool then BTCGuild has a lower fee than Deepbit.  5% versus 10%

...and Mt. Red is 0% fee PPS.
