Thu Mar 29 11:48:56 PST 2001 — Mistral upgraded. Yesterday, we upgraded one web server in our cluster to a dual PIII-750 with half a Gigabyte of RAM. Mistral used to be a single PIII-550 with a quarter Gigabyte of RAM. (Thanks Kelsey.) Our web server cluster serves over 5.1 million hits a day — and during peak periods, hits-per-second can exceed 115. We have these statistics, and more, available via graphs; Nathan and Kelsey are working to make those graphs public within the next week. -The Sonic Operations Team
