Up Down Up Down Up Down Up - I Won!

« Backend Surgery Tonight | Main | Pandia Suggests Google Buys Simpy »

The last week was a week from hell for Simpy. After a successful backend surgery, which included a performance fix and an upgrade of one of the backend component, Simpy was quickly able to take on more traffic than before. Not long after I was done patting myself on the back, I realized that something was awry with the service, but it took me a whole week to get to the bottom of it and fix it. This is why, if you visited Simpy last week, you might have caught Simpy being turned into a Gremlin.

Why am I sharing this? Because I would like to apologize for the past week's instability, and to let you know that the service is stable again.

Thanks. Hopefully the stability and performance improvements are noticable.

unixwebhosting:
Is this a real comment?
Is http://blog.eukhost.com/ your blog?
What's up with no Simpify functionality there then! See http://www.simpy.com/tools/simpify , come on, support the independent SImpy!

This is a test comment, as my last one didn't get through.

Huh. Maybe I got the little math test wrong!

Anyway, muchas gracias for all the hard work. I do notice that Simpy is faster now. (I never really noticed any stability issues.)

Ah, I'm glad it is noticeable. I can tell you that various performance charts I have are a lot more fun to look at now.
