Shared hosting is awesome!

Here’s the uptime report on the server that’s hosting the blog.
11:32:24 up 38 min, 3 users, load average: 266.63, 259.39, 230.23

For the uninitiated, that means that the current demand on the server is overloaded by 26,600%. It would take 266 servers to handle the load they’ve dumped on this one single wheezing box that my blog is sharing.

The end result? It just took 9 minutes for the main page of Command Line Idiot to load.

I’ll be in Italy, because my life is more fabulous than you can even imagine, and I don’t intend to spend my nights getting postfix to work. Thus, no tirades or swear-filled rants.

I’ll be back soon. And if you don’t think getting IMAP configured will whip me up into a frenzy, you don’t know the CLIdiot.
