@KeenHero It's in a Charter communications 911 center Colo Datacenter - 24 * 7 Power and Data - the UPS onsite is massive, and it's generator backed, data is multiple redundant over diverse physical paths.All of pool.burst-team.us, pool.burstcoin.biz, pool.burstcoin.eu, pool.burstcoin.party and the mobile mining pool are run on my vSphere cluster there, along with other server VM's for a total of 41 running VMs. The pools are hosting over 2,150 registered miners, and these are the first instability issues I've heard about any of the pools. There was a period when the wallet was having issues that made ALL pools unstable, but those problems have been resolved and pool problems are now few and far between.
The vSphere cluster is made up of four nodes, each with dual 12 core Opterons, 128GB RAM, and Samsung 950 Pro SSD's for the primary VM's, and a combined total storage of over 40TB. This is not some home PC on a home TCP link.
