Status update:
I used the latest (3rd) software update and both my miners performed poorly compared to performance with the second release. In addition, one miner that had been very stable, and while it never pulled 504 GHs on250 other than momentarily, did deliver ~480. Now with this release it would consistently drop an ASIC at 250 and 235 as well. My average at any frequency dropped to sub-430. I tried reflashing, and no change in performance. So I decided to go back to release two and now performance is back to being stable at 480-482 GHs. No ASIC are being dropped. That was about 8 hours ago, but I saw ASIC drops within the first few minute and now even the hash averages are consistent with prior performance.

I am hesitant to change back my other miner, since performance is at least consistent with the prior release.

Anyone else experiencing the same?
