Do you also use two separate workers?

Yeah !

Okay, so check this out... I rebuilt two new VM's as Linux proxies using the E1000 interface, my original one was using VMNET3... now with the E1000 interface, the cube is working better. I'll give it a few minutes as the hash rate is still increasing. I'm not sure it's directly related to the E1000 though as I also tried this with a physical windows server. Maybe having two proxies was the trick, no idea. Just happy it's working better on slush's pool than it ever has before.

**** In case someone want's to build a slush proxy on Ubuntu, this is what I did ****

My slush proxies..
Ubuntu Linux 12.04.3 LTS 64bit on ESXi 5.5
8GB VHD, 1GB RAM, 1CPU
NIC=E1000
*Post OS install where I just selected OpenSSH.

1 apt-get update
2 apt-get upgrade
3 service apparmor stop
4 update-rc.d -f apparmor remove
5 apt-get install snmpd ntp build-essential unzip python-dev
6 cd /opt
7 wget https://github.com/slush0/stratum-mining-proxy/tarball/master
8 tar zxf master
9 wget https://pypi.python.org/packages/source/z/zope.interface/zope.interface-4.0.5.zip
10 unzip zope.interface-4.0.5.zip
11 cd zope.interface-4.0.5 ; python setup.py install
12 cd ../slush0-stratum-mining-proxy-17d3226 ; python setup.py install ; python setup.py install (I ran it twice)
13 ln -s /usr/local/bin/mining_proxy /usr/bin/mining_proxy
14 /usr/local/bin/mining_proxy.py -o stratum.bitcoin.cz -p 3333 -gp 8332 -q -i /var/run/miner.pid > /var/log/miner.log 2>&1 &

*step 14 runs it, outputs a process id and stdout to miner.log for monitoring.... to view the log while live just type "tail -f /var/log/miner.log"

I'm getting over 1Ghps and growing... still looks good.

If you want to make that a startup script.
1 echo "/usr/local/bin/mining_proxy.py -o stratum.bitcoin.cz -p 3333 -gp 8332 -q -i /var/run/miner.pid > /var/log/miner.log 2>&1 &" > /etc/init.d/miner
2 chmod +x /etc/init.d/miner
3 update-rc.d miner defaults

Now reboot to verity it's running
1 shutdown -r now
2 ps -ef | grep miner (you should see the process string from the file)

* you'll also want to create a cronjob to dump out the miner.log file or you'll end up filling up your disk space... I just put this in a script and added it to cron to run every night at midnight.

#!/bin/bash
for x in `cat /var/run/miner.pid`
do
kill -9 $x
cat /dev/null > /var/log/miner.log
sh /etc/init.d/miner
done

** If you don't care about log files because your session is running as expected (like mine now), don't do the cron job entry and just export the output to /dev/null via this string instead of the one I supplied above:

"/usr/local/bin/mining_proxy.py -o stratum.bitcoin.cz -p 3333 -gp 8332 -i /var/run/miner.pid > /dev/null 2>&1 &"

I like to keep the PID so I can still write scripts against it if needed, if you don't want it... you can even shorten the script to:

"mining_proxy.py > /var/log/miner.log 2>&1 &"

Thanks and I hope my saga helps someone else... the E1000/ESXi 5.5/ ProCurve solution is the way to do btw.
