So I've gotten the two blades to receive work from bitcoind and I can see it in their webgui that they are receiving work. After about two minutes, however, they stop receiving work and their timers reset and bitcoind on the server becomes unresponsive and have to reboot to get bitcoind to start up correctly again.
Even running one blade directed at bitcoind hangs up and bitcoind becomes unresponsive. Anyone have any ideas for solutions?
