I'm not the guy (but know some people who could be) I think the most pertinent data will be throughput (bandwidth) logged during the time around failure and some record of simultaneous sessions (max) up to the fail point. If your host can't get you that data ask them why. I have more...

True. Nothing is 100%. That said i dont think the AWS crash was from load. But it's moot. The load you get here is not going to be a problem. That's a fundamental difference. You are pegging your architecture (maxing it) and to solve it you will buy capacity that sits idle 99% of the...

Ian, I might suggest that you also talk to someone beyond your current host. Your current host is not going to tell you how to get to the cloud (Amazon AWS , etc). They will sell you what they have. You could build something on AWS that would scale seamlessly (balancer spinning up new server...

Now that's funny. Peyton Manning might not laugh, but I did.

Re: Divisonal round breakdown: Ravens at Broncos Trust me 48 hours makes a HUGE difference. I lived in La Paz for 2 years. I speak from experience. I once came stateside for a week and then played hoops first day back in La Paz. I was bumming bad. Played again a few days later and...

Re: Divisonal round breakdown: Ravens at Broncos Announcer said the Ravens didn't get to Denver until 5:00pm yesterday. That's just stupid. You've got to get your guys used to the altitude. Big uglies are going to be gassed.

I havent' seen a ton of threads on this and if they're out there I have never posted to one. Part of being in a community is speaking up when the you think the community is heading in the wrong direction - not to point of being shrill, but not turtling up and hoping it all just goes away...

The car you describe is a totally worthless piece of junk. That's a basement dwelling team - Jags or Browns, say. The car you described would be out of the playoffs already. The Patriots lead their division, are SECOND in the conference in points differential. Your attitude is EXACTLY...

I totally agree with original poster. I'm sick of it. Of course there is room on a board for criticism, but the tone is so damn whiny and self righteous. Imagine a kid whose parents bought a new BMW who then bad mouths his parents for cheaping out for not getting the 7 class series or...

I thought this was interesting: Andrew Luck is like 20th in "Passer Rating" but #1 in "QBR". Which stat do you prefer? A few other interesting facts: 4 penalties called in Bills game. 24 last week in Ravens game. Ben Jarvis Green Ellis has 3 fumbles in Cincy this year. Didn't see that...

Cap numbers are almost worthless without the details on how many players are signed (and, really, who they are). Big difference if a team is $100M against the cap and has 20 guys signed against that number vs $100 M and 45 guys against that number.

BJGE running for over 100 yds.

Pats sacking Eli more than Brady gets sacked.

I did a search to see anyone one saw his talent? People complain about BBs drafting. Victor Cruz is a case that shows just how hard it is to pick. Uninteresting measurables, unimpressive school ... Went undrafted. Yet he has 5 production in his second year in the league.

Kudos to you on this call. This guy is practically a rookie. Nice little career might be a little understated even. I'm going to look at some of your other posts!
