Yesterday and today we have had some periods where the server has been a bit backlogged. Please be patient as the backlog will clear eventually. Yesterday we learned about which disk spindles to *not* use for output of perfecting runs with the I/O what it is these days. Today among other things I learned that our twice a day database backups are too much for the I/O and have changed it to only daily. Please note that in all cases that have been observed the system is not in any way CPU or RAM limited and it is just the I/O layer mentioned on the website and in the forums that needs a major overhaul. On this front we have everything speced out but am waiting to hear from our host on ensuring there is sufficient power into the rack.
