I don't know about the rest of you but I was really starting to worry. I was going through withdrawals. It's great to have the site back up. Thanks Brad and everyone else that works on it!!!!

The growing pains of transition. But what doesn't kill us will only make TMS stronger. [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen.gif[/img]

 

I feel for the guys working on it. It's not like this is a corporate website with large amounts of funding. Moving to a different server with possibly a different db means all kinds of settings that have to be discovered. We're discovering them now [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/04.gif[/img]. Thanks and good luck guys!

Because Brad releases a new "feature" or information, site traffic triples and what you see as a failure is mearly the server providing first come first serve service (ie you see a "Page cannot be Displayed" error). Then we move to faster hardware to help stave off the load and have a stroke of bad luck in the form of hardware failure.

No matter how much we prepare, the public response tends to amaze us.

I don't think its appropriate to discuss specifics since it's not my site, but there are many public venues that have this information.

 

I dont have exact numbers off hand, but I remember during the 2005 launch celebration, unvieled we rolled over like 4 million hits in one day.

That number is just a little south of what we recorded. But that number is a good average that entire week though. [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/worship.gif[/img]
