looks like a DNS problem

Looks like it changed again.
Don't worry - we'll be back soon.
Due to tons of press reference from various sites in Germany, we got about 5-6x more hits than normal... our dual-Quadcore server with 4 GB wasn't enough for me... need to check how to upgrade RAM or if I can optimize the server a bit more.
It was HUGE.

It's a ball.
I don't get it; I have a Pentium 4 server with 2 gigs of RAM, and have had 2000 simultaneous users on some sites I've hosted, and those users haven't dragged down the server to its limits...
I do of course take care to implement caching as much as possible (Drupal is very good at that!) and to use e.g. eaccelerator and other PHP script caching systems but still.
I think that ED has more powerful servers than that, and probably not as many users, so I just don't get it. Does he use shared hosting or virtual machines on a cluster or what?

No. The only reason is you are an ace admin and ED is notdflemstr said:
BTW, there was in screenshot in thi sthread. On the top-right corner is written "Parallels". This company makes VM-software. So _maybe_ its a virtual server.
i have no clue.

So yes, there's some kind of virtual system running, but only on the DNS server for all we know.

It's not a virtual server, it's fully dedicated server. Plesk is simply a software which allows easy setting up of eMail addresses, domains, server, etc.
Apache2 was running our of RAM. The server was receiving and sending 2k packets per second... I did use quite a few good server admins to set it up and check it today. With a max of 300 Spare Servers, 4GB RAM were full after a while (and swapping is a no-go) and with less it couldn't serve all users.
It looks like there were a lot more than 5000 users at once trying to get to the server.
And Joomla is a performance killer, as it looks like.

Evil, if you need cold hard cash for servers, why don't you put up a donate button?

My cousin was hosting some forums a while back until they got really popular. Someone hacked the site and they deleted all the forum content and archives.
Since then, then forums have been dead. I hope your doing regular backups ED

I got daily backups
There's a donation button in the archive, makes me about 10 Euro in four months
As a good server (like the one I have) is about 90 Euro a month, I doubt this would work out
