Basilisk maintenance 3/4/13

[Vlada]

8 in 5 hours makes 80 in 50 hours
and 20 adds 12.5 hours
62 hours it takes.

The actually database reload started at 10:30 EST, TheAnswers was backing up the DB before that.

No they shouldn't shift... Other than the ones that where supposed to shift. You will also notice that maintenance and power will be used as normal while the server is down.

Edit:

Why?

sorry im new! lol

Because so many would be hysteric...

how big is the db? If you dont mind me asking?

Thanks for the Answer to my question. I guess I an agree to a point. Mostly ebcause you RENT the servers and have little to no access to configure it. I would prefer the RAM to handle Random Access personally. A Rented server makes the difficult, didn't think about that

P.S. I wish the company would be willing to accept an SSD from us. I am sure we could fund one and they could put it in the machine and not charge us more per month!

Sure, ram is always better for performance, but SSDs are certainly an attractive option once you get to a certain size, and I think we're past that point here.

Just a rough estimate, but adding another 64G of ram to a server would probably add around $1k/month to the cost, maybe more. (I'm not sure the exact deal that swgemu got; thats just a ballpark figure).

256G of ram would probably be closer to $3k/month extra, not really practical, and it still wouldn't hold the database entirely.

Adding another 400G ssd would probably be around $300/month.


My estimates may be a little out of date, I haven't priced anything yet this year, but it should be around there.
