GFY Maintenance Downtime! - GoFuckYourself.com

TexasDreams · 10-07-2006, 12:21 PM

*** Downtime Schedule ***

Midnight Tonight till 4AM Pacific Time Sunday Morning

Time for some upgrades, and this one is big on the processing time. Testing on the development servers is done, and final tuning on the templates is set.

This upgrade will take a bit longer due to database modifications, it means rebuilding the entire threads database (700K threads). Testing on a cloned database (11M+ posts), took 3 hours, 10 minutes of raw processing time alone. I'm estimating 4-hours max downtime for the entire conversion and update.

Upgrade will start at midnight Pacific Time and be done by 4am the morning of 08 October 2006. This one will be worth it, and YES it looks like this will certainly fix some of the major problems we've had with the ailing search feature.

So, what are you to do during this maintenance time?

How about clicking on some of those sexy banners at the top and bottom of the GFY pages to see how those sponsors can make you some money!!!

Guess I should find something to do tonight. Better go to the bank I guess.

AsianDivaGirlsWebDude · 10-07-2006, 12:30 PM

Bahhh...downtime! When I was kid we didn't have downtime, and we didn't have queer nicknames like Texas Dreams either!!!

Sounds like I need to make a liquor store run...

And when you were a kid, did you have to walk 20-miles up-hill both ways, through 8-feet of snow to update your websites?

When I was a kid, we didn't even have websites. We had bulletin board systems. And dial-up!

Today I was in the local corner shop and suddenly heard the almost forgotten sound of a modem connecting. I guess the shopkeeper was connecting to something but I was taken over my memories of shoving a pencil down the sound hole in my modem so my parents couldn't hear it dialing. Ahhh, 16 and addicted to a BBS.

Ha! When I was a kid, we didn't have no fancy bulletin board systems and dial-up. We just scratched our messages on rocks, and threw them at eachother!

This one time, I wrote a girl a long loveletter, but I had to use a really, really large rock to make it all fit, and the rock ended up killing her. I still cry about that sometimes

"Im going to my houes" it will say "Did you mean, house or hoes"

Fantastic! I know if you guys can get GFY to speed up that it will be even more busy than ever before. Also, if you could eventually re-enable searches that would do alot to help some of us keep up with things here.

Cheers,
