Up Again

We're up again, and working on the problem. Things aren't 100%, but we hope to get them that way this morning.

Basically, we're dealing with one of those situations where something small went wrong and unnoticed, slowly getting worse, causing other problems as it went, and being compounded by a small mistake on our part and when those problems came to our attention the attempt to fix them brought on worse even as we thought we'd fixed it.

Tech has been unraveling the Gordian knot for a while. I suspect that we (i.e. the smart members of this team, not me) will fix this fully by lunch.

We'll advise if not.

Intermittent Outage

TT is down. We thought it was just a minor glitch but it's not.

Our tech has been on it, but we've been out and incommunicado. Apologies on that.

We'll get on it tomorrow first thing.

It figures we'd have this problem when we tried to sneak a Saturday away from the computer and work.

I'll advise as soon as we know more.

Again--Huge Server Load

We've been getting record usage during this market move. The site is staggering under the load.

This is after lots of tweaking and improvements in performance. If this traffic holds past the current crisis we will be upgrading our servers, you may rest assured.

For now, don't use search during market hours and don't compulsively refresh.

If you must search, use google, and search for the poster or any key words, and Traders-talk.com

Thanks,
Mark
