Server Suggestions

Post by hecter »

With this fancy new dual server system, things are running pretty quickly. There's only a few minor problems...

* Suggestion Idea: Daily sync of the server times
* Specifics: Set it up so that every day, at a certain time, the servers sync with each other.
* Why it is needed: The times seem to drift apart as time goes by, resulting in some quirky forum things (quote posts before they are posted, for example). Do this daily and the problem shouldn't crop up.

* Suggestion Idea: Change the load balancing system
* Specifics: I posted this in a different thread, but I figured I'd post it again. Rather than try to balance the server loads via ISP, why not do it via username? ABCD1234 logs in, and the moment he logs in, the server load on server1 is X, and the server load on server2 is X-1. So, ABCD1234 is put on server2 until he logs out.
* Why it is needed: Some people are having problems with being logged out and such. This should fix it, if it's possible.

The second idea won't work because people who are not logged in need to be able to use the site too...

The server could read if you're logged in. If you aren't, then just give you the server with the lowest load at that moment. It wouldn't matter if you switch servers, since you're not logged in.
