Spikes, Slow Restarts For Some Regions Overnight

Status Desk — Tue, 08 May 2012 04:25:34 +0000

[Posted 9:25 pm PDT, 07 May 2012]

Some regions are taking longer than normal to work their way through restarts this evening. In addition, they’re reporting higher-than-normal spikes in performance and viewer instability.

Our engineers have done the preliminary work tracing the problem and will be forming a team early tomorrow to fully diagnose and correct it.

Tonight, please file a “region offline” service request as needed for any region which remains inaccessible to you for longer than 15 minutes or so, and we’ll work with our network engineers to assist the restarts as needed.
