I can't find the HN story, but I seem to remember that PG was rebooting the server quite regularly. It must be pretty difficult when you're looking at having to toss up continuing to use the language with it's limitations or start looking at changes to Arc.
Maybe a front-end cache like nginx would help?
- wwortiz 16y agoAs stated elsewhere it really seems to be a problem with the static content hosted on ycombinator.com (maybe they aren't being cached very well browser side). I don't know how well something like a front end cache would do to speed up content delivery as I suspect news.yc has a lot more users logged in than normal websites which might take away the advantages of a front end cache.
- sudont 16y agoWebkit's resource tracker shows that most of the static content is taking anywhere from 10-14 seconds to be requested, and then loading with a 304 not modified. The page, from the news.ycombinator subdomain is loading quick, as is the tracking code. (180ms latency) Firefox works the best for me, as it seems to just time out and not request anything.
