Is it just me, or was our good old friend Settler II down again today (this morning U.S. time)?

See the "Open Letter From The Administration" post at http://apolyton.net/about or http://apolyton.net/forums/announcem...s=&forumid=31. The message addresses current technical issues with Apolyton's server, "Settler II".

Good to see that more RAM is coming. Nothing like a fresh stick of RAM to keep a server happy.

If anyone cared they would have realised it at the time. Dual Xeons are expensive and they needed to cut back somewhere.

Face it. The Dual Xeons were needed, as is the 1.5GB of RAM.

It kept Apolyton running, so it was a good move.
More memory now will be a bigger improvement.

Thanks for the information displayed in your open letter DanQ, I really appreciate being informed of the reason behind the repeated downtimes.

There would certainly be no faster way to reduce the load due to traffic on this site than introduce branching threads.
