Dr Kimoto, here's what I'm getting from one of my miners after a few hours mining against the qt client:

You can see it's intermittent. Restarting the miner has no effect. Only restarting the qt client. megacoind has the same issue iirc.
I'm running four cgminer instances plus one perl script polling stats every five minutes.
(note: when the four miners are connected, the qt-client refuses the perl connection for stats (times out))
I do not have this issue with other coin qt clients.
Please look into it if you can.
Thanks
Dr. Kimoto, just a reminder to look into the rpc client limit. Command line overrides don't seem to have any effect.
I'd like to be able to mine with more machines. Right now I can only use 3 consistently.
Good morning Darian! Its no problem, just a little of the new bitcoin core fun! Lets angry birds this nyan cat into space brooks and give E.T. a visit!
-rpcthreads= Set the number of threads to service RPC calls (default: 4)
Happy mining and pack some Reeses Pieces.
-Dr. Kimoto Chan
