I have a news flash for all of you...
transaction servers and stats servers are NOT in the same bank, the same place or even on the same power supply.
I'll speak for CCBill since I know without a doubt how their setup works, and I'd imagine I'm dead on with the other guys too. But imagination is a great thing.
Transaction servers are set apart from everything else in the processing world and the primary priority for any processor (or any bank for that matter since their's are structured the same way) under any circumstances.
Processors would have you bitch and go days without stats if that's what is needed to protect the transaction servers.
There is a God in the land of cc processing and it's called connectivity to your bank.
