Low payouts? What could be causing it?

[shaftian]

I've been tracking daily payouts in my mining and I'm trying to figure out some discrepancies with how much the pool pays out and how much I'm getting.  I'm on GHASH.io and they merge mine a few other coins, however the BTC payouts are actually far, far lower. Since the pool is seeing my hashing power to within 3% of what it actually is, what could account for the payout gap seeing as how they have 0% fees.

The pool sees about 98% of my hashing power which is great but the payout is only about 82% of my hashing. I checked reject and stales, about 0.5%. There is a 16% gap between what payouts should be and what payouts actually are.

Under ideal conditions (100% efficiency) I'm expecting 0.01434 BTC/TH per day. Instead I'm getting 0.0118 BTC/TH per day-- 82% of my ideal payout.  Is this normal for a mining pool? Has anyone had any experience with fixing the gap?

All pools have variance depending on how many blocks are found. So if you want steady payout try mining at a PPS pool. I mine at BAN https://mining.bitcoinaffiliatenetwork.com/admin.php
