Cool. Hopefully the new server won't be made out of zip ties.

I really like how Chuck gives us a heads up when shit's going down. But we do have an admin with some sense of management skills :lol:

Did his server go kapput and he jumped ship, or was this a planned move? Either way its funny, just different funnies.

Not sure. There are lots of upgrades I do not post and just do, because I do not want to hear the complaining. With that said all Volvspeed affaliated sites will be down ~15 minutes on the 30th.

Thanks again Chuck.

Yeah we were severely over utilizing our server apparently... the one we just upgraded to back in Nov. lol More upgrades and moves - i guess thats a good sign though. Glad to have you guys around to fall back on for the addicts (even if they can be a pita).

You sure you do not have a config issue? I thought you were on a dedicated box. I have run forums with 500+ apache calls a second on very basic servers. Think dual 2 ghz processors and 4-8 gigs ram. So call it 4000-5000 users per hour with no issues. You seeing I/O errors or what? Are everyone of your members pressing search on the count of 3?

Nah, we were still on a VPS actually - just on the biggest setup they've got before going with a separate database server or full dedicated. Our "slice" was something like 1 CPU and a couple gigs of ram which was handling the load perfectly fine up until this month - and i havent seen any major jump in utilization. Im still not entirely sure we've fixed the problem since i find it unbelievable that we out grew a server that fast and our loads are not that big in actuality. We shall see.

Are all the tables using indexing? Temp tables HEAP? Any locked tables? Whats the connection to the sql server? 1000T? On that set up ignoring I/O errors you should be able to handle 500-1000 online at a time no problem. If it truely is a processor issue ever consider litespeed over apache? Cache the files, minify java, and you should be good to go.

indexing - im pretty sure, HEAP = yeah, I'll have to check the rest when i get home from work. I dont think its a processor issue per se but im not sure what made them see that it was a load problem. Never tried litespeed, but then again i've never really seen anything wrong with apache, just mysql. I'll shoot you an email when i get home and can pull some info from the server and see what you think. thanks again.

With an upgraded NIC and RAID card yes. For sites the size of VS/TBs you need about 2 gigs ram, and 2 2ghz cores.
