Not Confirmed DL - How does this happen, and is there anything to stop it happening in the future?

I get those too. But before you panic look on the pool sometimes its already there and the confirm got lost on the way.

@gwagner Usually this happens when you lose connectivity to pool

@Han-Solo Trust me - my servers are big enough for the job .... The cluster is 4 servers with a combined count of 96 CPU cores, 512GB RAM, 36TB Disk :)
@gwagner The pools give priority to processing incoming submissions, so often the responses get delayed, even though the block was processed. Check the pool to see if the DL was accepted. It's also possible that the submission got dropped somewhere on the way to the pool, was corrupt, or the response got dropped somewhere. But most of the time, it;s just delayed.

@Han-Solo First, I don't get paid for providing this service. I pay to provide this service.
As I said, the pools priority is processing the submissions, confirmations can get delayed. That said, looking at my miners which mine on my pools, I don't see any unconfirmed DL's for recent blocks.

@Han-Solo You can also solo mine, remember this is a community effort the pools are by no means perfect but they are getting there. Your results will vary from pool to pool but the general consensus is that less miners a pool has the less confirmed deadlines are reported.

@Han-Solo The pool fees don't go to me - they all go to the BurstTeam asset - I earn through the shares I own of that, though they now go to my asset, so I instead earn through my shares in that.
The servers that run the pool were purchased by me, were upgraded by me, the hosting fees are paid by me - I pay for these services because I believe in the coin, and am happy to use my own money to provide services for this community. Where would Burst be without these pools, the home page about burst (www.burst-team.us ), without these forums? I do what I do to make the community and the coin grow.

Which mania to compare bitcoin with burst.
Right now finding a block in bitcoin gives a profit of 31500 dollars and in burst the gain is 1.6 dollars per block, however much increase the quota is impossible to reach those levels.
It should be added that in addition they are hardware manufacturers that from there they also gain profitability.

the technical reason why this happens is because when you submit your deadline to the pool. the pool then has to go through the entire routine to verify that the nonce is valid,
this means it has to shabal256 your accountid and nonce 4096 times then run the calculation to find the deadline
you could refer to the below to see the full routine
whilst this routine is run in different threads it still takes a while to execute this command for a single request. the time it takes ranges from 0.25 seconds to a full second.
so the pool is effectively plotting as its receiving requests then submitting them to the network.
now add that with the speed your uploading/current network traffic/time it takes over distance. and the delay could take longer than your miner will wait for the response.
i hope this answers some questions
