Takes ~24-48 hours to recover from a downtime, if you have downtime of 5-6 hours+ then you are being a cheap ass on hosting
The longest downtime I can remember I had the last few years was ~2 hours and that was when I had harddisk failure and lost all data, took me 30 minutes to notice, the host spend 30 minutes getting a virtual account up, took around 1 hour to get script setup, thumbs imported, trades added and IP updated in DNS's.
5 Hours later the site was on normal traffic level.
That happend in the middle of a sale of the site actually.
The site have stable trades, IE: same trades today that it had 2-4 weeks ago, more or less same size too
