Site Slowness

Previous Entry Add to Memories Tell a Friend Next Entry
I just want to post here and apologize for the recent slowness some of you have been experiencing. We are aware of this issue and its cause. Our primary load balancer went over its monthly bandwidth allotment so we had to reconfigure the way the site runs. I was hoping that it wouldn't be noticeable, but alas, it is running very slow at times.

Unfortunately there isn't much we can do about this until the billing cycle starts over in about a week. So until then I am going to have to just let you know that the site will be running slow.

We are already taking steps to keep this from happening again. So after we get things going again, we wont run into this problem in the future.

Also we might be switching hosting providers in the future due to this issue. And if we do we will be doing a fund raising drive on the site. We haven't worked out details yet, but we will let you know well ahead of time.
  • When or if you change hosting will the site go down or a clean sweep over that we dont notice?

    Oh and another idea for drive More layouts for people who pay for there journal.
    • It will have to go down for a bit while I copy the database to the new provider
    • Good Idea! I would pay for more layouts! As long as I don't have to mess with code or anything. I am just not good at that!
      • i agree! thats one reason i always loved lj is because they had so many and i didnt have to mess with them ^_^ IJ should get its own unique ones so that LJers will want to switch over to here!
