Things are running slow

For some reason, things are still recovering from the problems on Monday. Everything that is running is running really slow. I think the database server just needs a nice reboot... so we will try and do that after the jobs finish today.

So if you don't see your entry yet, never fear... it is on its way... it is just shy this morning.

Update 4:45pm CT
If you haven't noticed, we have had some more issues today with stability. Technical explanation: The disk I/O on our server is the bottle neck... database reads and writes back up... the web server connections back up... things start to hang... and the site cascades into madness from which only a reboot can cure. Our current vendor does not provide RAID as an option... so we are looking at more drastic short term measures... I will keep you posted on what we decide to do.

They may have run slow... but (thankfully) they ran! I was a little concerned that my 1337 Gain would get messed up!
