UPDATE : Moving to a new home!

ÄlphämönkëyÄlphämönkëy Registered User regular
After what feels like an eternity, we finally have our new server boxes!
Well, we will. They are shipped and I have a tracking number to follow religiously. There are six, count em', six new machines we are going to be using here at penny arcade. One of the five is actually a combination of two of our existing servers into our new "main" server. The other five will be used as load balanced nodes to serve up the website very, very, quickly.

There might be some downtime as we move everything over to our new machines. I'll keep you posted.

    It's about freakin' time.

    Running on anything less than 6 servers is a disgrace to your viewers, Alpha, and you should be ashamed.

    Hell, webpages I serve up on our internal LAN here at the office are powered by a 73-node supercomputer, and that's only to a dozen people.

    So once the new shit gets here, is that when you're going to fix the Opera-refresh/never-finishing-loading bug(s)? Or is that an artifact of the old box? Or will you take care of that once you're done porting everything over to the new hardware? Or something else?

    Also, hooray.

    That is an artifact of the old box. When we make the switch over that should disappear immediatly, if it doesn't I'll file a ticket and fix it soon after.
