From the SecureCRT console, connected through SSH1, as the backend is giving me timeouts. I can tell you that we're near 100% server load and are still serving out those pages to at least 1500 clients. I'm sure some of you get timeouts or can't even reach the server at all, for that I apologize, but we just have one of these, not a whole rack full of them.
Have a good weekend,

And just when we installed a new box with dual 1.3GHz CPUs, 240GB of RAID0+1 storage and 1GB of RAM (see here) and thought we were ready for just about anything the Slashdot Mob comes along and brings it down to it's knees!
Thanks guys, I'm happy to report the server pulled through although we had to limit the no. of simul. connects to keep things afloat. We'll be going over the server logs today to see where there's room for improvement, as there's some parameters we'd like to change in order to handle such loads better in the future.
Thanks and kind regards,
