Planned downtime: OS upgrade

[Krugz]

Heh that's interesting.. since a bunch of the better/further along players are lagging too much to play, I'm able to work on catching up.. muahaha!

Loftar, have you tried using liquid nitrogen to cool your server down and boost performance??

Can't you tell by the lag? he's already moved the server to Pluto for extreme cooling.

seriously, amateurs these days..

Is anyone cuirios about how there is about 300 people playing, while some people are complaining about lag?
Obviously its NOT THAT BAD (insert sarcasm) that about 300 people are playing...
Also side note, could it be that its not the server, the new OS, etc... but instead the 300+ people playing at once?
This is the first time that I have been on and seen over 150 people playing, so...

just my thought...

Loftar needs a system that utilizes Solid State Drives so running of files will hopefully be 10x faster.

Expensive yes, but it's not for storing and retrieving player files, it's for the OS itself to operate faster.

Also, do note that hard drives should be backed up and changed every 2-3 years as they get old and start spinning slower.
Even more so if its a server machine that has to be on 24/7.

There was once alot more then 300. Never this bad of lag.

If that's true, my 10 y/o machine should be dead. Are you sure it's not because every 2-3 years, something bigger and better is on the market?

it's seems like it depends.. old things seems to be better after all^^ New things r way more fragile and the size is just one part of the story Another is cheap production and/or bad materials by intent to force buyers to buy it again after 2 years according to which it won't work anymore.

actually it's 1 month to 1 Year^^

I remember 1300-1500 during World 4 with no lag.
