Website Overload

[styfle]

I guess when there are over 4000 people on the website it kinda dies...

I am definitely experiencing a serious slowdown here, the worst it's ever been. I suspect a new "most ever online" record.

[styfle]

yep it says most ever online is 5000+

We're all fixed up and should be good to go.

Overall, the site has been pretty good considering the traffic levels. Some minor tweaks were just made to alleviate some server resources.

I was right: Most users ever online was 5,363, Today at 02:25 PM.

Was the previous record in the 3,000s?

I thought EIC handled the influx following today's announcement very well. I didn't notice any considerable speed differences.

I guess you had better be careful of getting what you ask for. I have to admit though keeping count here today was more exciting that what the Keynote Address had to offer. :laugh2:

I def noticed a slow down around 5-6pm. Not too bad really, just a few seconds longer loading time for threads. Good news really!

Is this why the site was slow compared to how it is usually?
