Mining server restart today

There will be a mining server restart, causing 15-18 seconds of downtime, later this afternoon.

The purpose of the restart is to add two new API fields required by a company that will be bringing in 8,000 new miners to us within the next month.

8000 new miners, what are they going to be mining? BTC?

Dang, 8,000 new miners is quite the catch! I assume these new API calls will be publicly available to use as well?

The API information has already been updated on the website. Two new fields were needed: all_time_share_count and all_time_total_difficulty. The fields allow subscribers to estimate how much data was missed if their Internet connection goes out.

The miners are GPUs, so they'll be mining ethash; and later, etchash.
