Can anyone with a similar rig comment on stability? How often do you need physical access to your rig, and why?

Software updates will bring more stability. Stay away from windows. I currently have 99 DMs running on a Pi for over 72 hours without any failures. I was having issues for a while where a DM or two would go down and I would have to have physical access to the hubs to fix the issue. After running only 9 DMs per orico p10-u2 and some new software (still testing, should be committed to git soon) I haven't had any fail. My only downtimes have been me moving pools. Once everything is configured properly you shouldn't need physical access often.

I got 18 right now on a 49 port hub. on a windows machine with NO downtime.
I have had upto 38 on an Asicminer Hub, but it seems like one of my win7 rigs did have trouble with ghost COM ports. Must have been from all the ASICMINER Block Eruptors and Usb Antminers. But once I got that squared away, no probs. since. These seem to be pretty solid so far.
