Ask HN: When are you going to add a new server?
Hacker News is a great resource... but it seems to be getting slower. What are the latest traffic stats? and more importantly, when will HN update the infrastructure to better handle its current traffic load?
- wmf 15y agoIt gets fixed when it gets unbearably bad, not before.
- donohoe 15y agoI think the question is: What is the traffic load, and by how much has it increased in the last 6-12 months?
- sp332 15y agoIt's getting about twice as many "new" posts lately as it did last month. There's a lot more spam, but not that much more. I wonder if there's an uptick in traffic for some reason?
- templaedhel 15y agoThe server routinely slows down, then has to be restarted by PG. We may just be in the slowdown period. As for traffic, http://ycombinator.com/images/hntraffic-9feb11.png http://ycombinator.com/images/hntraffic-9feb11.png is the traffic on the 9th of Feb 2011.
