Great news! Will start hashing right away and will add it to the thread.
There was a little blimp there for a couple of minutes. I realized I had forgotten to change a bit of code in the pushpool software that makes it more compatible with the modern databases.
I fixed and compiled. I had to shut the back end down for a moment while I swapped out the updated executable.
So the hash rate numbers will be off for a little bit until the interruption falls out of its range of calculation.
FYI: THE STATISTICS DISPLAYS ARE JUST THAT, DISPLAYS. The serious jobs like share counting, payouts etc. are completely different routines and are completely unaffected by the statistics displays.
Statistics are recalculated every minute.
Share counting, payouts etc. are run every time a new block comes on the network (regardless if the pool solved it or not). However, this being this is a proportional pool, you will only see balance changes when the pool solves a block.
I know 120 confirms to get paid seems like alot of time right now with the high difficulty/low hash situation. If I see enough interest in the pool, I will invest my own coin to float coin base maturity and shorten that up quite a bit, maybe down to something around 10 confirms.
