Guest icnsofto Posted May 7, 2018 Share Posted May 7, 2018 Hey everyone, Does the fact that Johnny was suspended make Ricky much slower, as users rush to create new accounts on Ricky? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolstech Posted May 7, 2018 Share Posted May 7, 2018 To an extent, yes. More accounts = more load. We actually had to reduce the number of accounts per day on Ricky for this reason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest icnsofto Posted May 7, 2018 Share Posted May 7, 2018 Once Johnny is back, will the uptime on Ricky improve? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolstech Posted May 7, 2018 Share Posted May 7, 2018 It may or may not. The number of accounts per day on Ricky won't decease overnight since virtually nobody is going to move Ricky->Johnny. Similarly, the number created each day won't decrease since the limit is going to stay the same. Historically though, over time the servers tend to smooth out. New users come and old users go, which means the software being run by them changes over time and thus the load behaves differently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest icnsofto Posted May 7, 2018 Share Posted May 7, 2018 Why is Tommy much more stable and has a better uptime then? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolstech Posted May 8, 2018 Share Posted May 8, 2018 Fewer accounts and much newer hardware on Tommy. We also have somewhat tighter resource controls. Ricky's hardware (Stevie) is actually the oldest in our fleet. Tommy's hardware (Eddie) is I believe either the newest or second newest server based on date of manufacture.
