Posted by Jesse Smith

Early this morning the server RAM was doubled from 1 to 2 Megs. You might of noticed those short daily server crashes over the last week or two!!!!

explains it a little, if you know anything about servers!!! Back when I last increased RAM, I thought 1 meg was the max it could have!!! grrr!!!! The server loves the extra RAM. Right now it's using 1.3 Megs, with only about 768K on swap.

[code]
16:06:12 up 11:24, 1 user, load average: 1.48, 1.49, 1.51
137 processes: 131 sleeping, 5 running, 1 zombie, 0 stopped
CPU states: cpu user nice system irq softirq iowait idle
total 25.9% 0.0% 9.7% 0.5% 0.1% 1.9% 61.4%
Mem: 2047380k av, 1337848k used, 709532k free, 0k shrd, 123128k buff
917500k active, 232592k inactive
Swap: 2096472k av, 768k used, 2095704k free 673468k cached

Quoting eth00: If this is a sudden jump with no big jump in traffic it is possible it is bad hardware, though in your case it does not look like it.

Ah, so that's the reason behind the site not working sometimes.

Well, good job then with the upgrade! :cool:

er, wait a minute...how old is your PC??!! It would have to be atleast 15 years old to have less RAM than the server!!! I would guess the late 80s were the last time computers had less than 2 megs of RAM!!!

Were talking a measly 2 MEGS, not 2 GIGS of RAM!!! For example, my iMac has 768 Megs of DDR SDRAM!!! If you got less than 2 Megs of RAM, I fill sorry for you!!! :D:D

Re: Delete DA boards....

But I like it when people complain!!!! :D That's why I mentioned deleting it!! I like making people panic!!! :D:D:D
