Feedster’s Fix: A simple reboot?

In: smp

20 Jul 2005

I reported that Feedster’s performance had suddenly improved yesterday. [here]

In the aggregated graph, the classic “runaway CPU/memory leak…OOPS!…REBOOT!” performance pattern appears.

Is anyone at Feedster willing to go on the record about this, just for the education of the group?

Glad that the fixes we’ve been implementing have been working out, and you can see the empirical improvement.

As for the broken HTML, thanks for reporting the bug! It was a glitch in our last site rollout, and we’re going to fix it ASAP.

I believe that the HTML validity issue is now fixed. Thanks for pointing it out!

Randy,

Thanks very much for the heads up. That was a *very* recent regression (you guys are on the ball!), and thanks to your report has now been fixed.
