As the Server Hamsters Struggle

The Reddit firehose
LGF • Views: 34,396

You’ve probably noticed that LGF is running rather sluggishly today; it’s because there’s currently a link to LGF in the #5 spot on Reddit’s home page … and we’re getting hit with a massive surge of traffic. Hundreds of thousands of hits.

The Reddit link goes to Destro’s LGF Page about the privatization of TLC and the Honey Boo Boo atrocity. I saved an HTML-only static version of that page and set up a redirect, and that seems to be helping a bit, but the hamsters who power our web server are still running their furry little butts off — so you may experience delays until that post starts to move off Reddit’s front page.
