The pool stats. are way off. Seems to be stable though.
Perhaps some more folks would spin-up a free cpu cloud instance and/or start mining in the pool. Just need to find a block to know that were good.
Oh that explains why the blocks haven't been found. Would have thought at >1MHs we should be seeing blocks.
Indeed. My actual mining speed in slimminer is only around 5.25 khash/s (mining with 8 threads)

Someone sent me a link about RunAbove cloud instances
https://www.runabove.com/index.xml - which currently have $32 (1 months approx. free credit also)
Steadfast resources S with 1 x CPU seem to be the best option, currently at ($0.014 per. hour) so, $9 x 4 (instances) = $36
Just testing it myself at the moment - they require SMS verification and payment method verification and you have to generate your own .keys.
See:
https://community.runabove.com/kb/en/instances/create-ssh-keys.html and
http://labs.runabove.com/power8/ - quite powerful cores in comparison to other providers.

Also,
"Get a $300 cloud credit when you try HP Helion Public Cloud" - See:
http://www.hpcloud.com/cloud-credit - I can't get HP to recognize my valid details though atm !?! - Check T's and C's.
and ofc
http://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/ - has a free trial offer still.
