[Solved] Account suspension

[raicho]

Hello,

My account got suspended again, more or less as a consequence of today's activities.

I have found and fixed the problem, but I suppose memory consumption from the entire day was taken into account.

Please unsuspend it again.

Kind regards,

Raicho Minev

This is your 3rd suspension for high server load within the last 3 months, so this support request is being escalated to our root admins for their consideration.

Which was?

I do a monitoring by calling cgi script with cron. The sites my service was visiting responded extremely slowly, which resulted in multiple cron calls with unfinished processes, hence the memory issue. I quick-fixed it by adding timeout for the requests.

Using cron for the task is generally a bad idea, which was just proved. This account served a good purpose as a proof of concept and I am currently reworking the approach. Actually, please do not bother - I just purchased a VPS and I won't be needing this account any more - you can close it.

Sounds good. I created a full backup which you can download from https://heliohost.org/backup/ if you find you need something from your Tommy account, and then deleted the Tommy account as requested. Let us know if you need help with anything else.
