I'm pretty new to Bitcoin mining and using three Satoshi Sticks (USB ASICs). cgminer indicates an average hash rate of 325 Mh/s per AMU. I've been connected to Slush's pool for a few hours, but on the "My accounts" page the "Mhash/s" stats say

285.69 Mh/s

with this number slowly increasing on page refreshes.

Questions:
- Why is this number significantly lower than 3 x 325 Mh/s?
- Will it keep increasing over time until it reaches the real rate, which cgminer indicates on my local machine?
- Why is this so?

Thanks for helping a Bitcoin mining newbie with this. :-)

There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, which will follow the rules of the network no matter what miners do. Even if every miner decided to create 1000 bitcoins per block, full nodes would stick to the rules and reject those blocks.

Both Slush's pool and CGMiner have their own threads for these types of questions.
A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text.
Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing?
A: Top-posting.
Q: What is the most annoying thing on usenet and in e-mail?
