  • Fun with RAM

    Twice in the last twelve hours I’ve called the (polite, efficient, helpful) Dedicated Hosting support techs at Infinity Internet (our new hosts!) to reboot this webserver. As near as I can tell, running six websites (no matter how low-traffic) and an email rig on 128 megabytes of RAM just isn’t going to cut it.

    I’ve tweaked some settings here and there to (hopefully) cut down on the chance of another server lock-up between now and Monday (which is the earliest I can talk to someone about upgrading the memory), but if you see my little family of websites go “poof” between now and then… well, now you’ll know why.

    Unless, of course, the server vapor-locks before you can read this. In which case you’ll be able to read all about it next week when I get this resolved…
