Server speed

[PeterJ]

Someone is either trying to take us down, or more likely doing a bulk copy of content this morning which is slowing the site down. I'm investigating and will go through the logs later.

I hope it’s not, what I think it is.

Now it works, but for a moment it was unavaliable to me.

Indeed, the slowdown is pretty noticeable.

I rebooted the server.

This is the last seven days. You will see normally there is no issue at all. Then look at the last few hours:

Funny, after reboot it's super snappy now.

An hour ago, I've seen an "out of memory" error. A server reboot is the only one option when server runs Windows. But, if you're using Linux is the worst option on the long run.

[PeterJ]

I had loads of Ubuntu updates which needed a reboot as well [mention]zx81[/mention].

That initial spike and the dunk in the memory usage makes me wonder if something just crashed and the recovery went crazy.
