I have a question. I've got an eight core DigitalOcean VPS with Ubuntu 13.10 installed. On heavycoinpool.com I'm getting 70kh/s on average.
An 8 core droplet (NY1) should yield you 190-200 khash/s on 1GH, depending on the particular droplet's performance.
Thanks for replying. I'll try 1gh on this droplet then. And when I created this droplet NY1 was not available so selected NY2. If it underperforms with 1GH too will destroy this droplet and create a new one.
