HelioHost Posted July 18, 2012 Posted July 18, 2012 Heliohost's Johnny server is not unfamiliar with bouts of high load. In fact, since that server offers the full Heliohost spectrum of services it is expected to be a little less stable than Stevie, but for the last twelve hours or so Johnny has been even less stable than usual. The Heliohost admins are looking into the cause of the high load, and working on ways to correct it. The servers generally operate best if the load is less than 20, while less than 5 is optimal; at the time of this post Johnny's load is averaging around 150. Usually the best course of action when load is too high is to disable account creation, deletion, inactivity suspensions, and other non-essential high load processes to simply wait for the load to return to a reasonable level on its own, but today's case of high load is a little more severe than that. Please pardon our downtime as we work to get Johhny's spiraling out of control, high load back into a reasonable level.
