Why am I getting error messages saying the forums are experiencing high traffic at 4 am EST? Is something going on around here?
 
If I remember correctly, the forum servers do some routine maintenance on themselves ( caching etc. ) from 2-4 AM.
 
Not sure, more than likely you hit it while it was doing its backups. We are planning a bigger upgrade soon. Please, be patient, keeping up with growth of this kind is not an easy task at all. Yakko this forum has grown in traffic and size at least 2 fold since the old servers. Sustaining well over 7mbit/s in pure bandwidth.
 
w00t, more upgrades! Make Anand write us another upgrade article, Zuni, the last one was interesting. 😉 By the way, what kind of NICs do you guys use in the servers?
 
I am being patient. I was just curious as I have never seen that problem at that time of day. Keep up the great work.
