Very High Traffic on Guild Launch - Slow Page Responses
Greetings,
Due to WoW's extended downtime we are seeing *very* high traffic volumes. The traffic volumes are considerably higher than we anticipated based on traffic patterns recently. We've been running at around 30% capacity and we didn't plan to max out that capacity even on an extended downtime day. We have more web hardware coming on line at the end of the week, but didn't expect to need it today. That expectation was obviously incorrect.
I'm working to squeeze some more performance out of what we have on hand. I apologize for the slow sites and can assure you that we will have new hardware online at the end of the week or early next week that will give us more headroom going forward.
