Seems like todays been a harsh day for the site...

Ten times I've got server not available messages and some 30 second lags... something going on today... never seen it this laggy...

 

(Are you also not getting notification e-mails for posts made in topics you are watching?)

 

Yeah, for some reason SL has been SLAMMED today... TONS of users. Not sure why... but it's overwhelming our servers!

 

:lala:

 

i'm just wonderin what kind of servers are you using???

 

I can;t remember... they are colo'd, not here. They sounded good when I agreed to get on 'em!

 

(As to the sudden higher load, I may be the cause of that because BoingBoing picked up a link to one of my posts at ScionLife. Luckily, you don't also serve the image folks were after (304K)... That came off MY server. I won't have the figures on my server load until a little later tonight.)

 

Well, what was it about? Curious!

 

Haha... I found it. You dork!

Well, it did turn out to be the busiest day for my server - it served 1.39 gigabytes to 5,644 hits - 5195 of them for that image...

That's a big day for my server, but shouldn't have been THAT serious an additional load on ScionLife.
