    I wonder if I will have my dartnode vps by the time we have a Christmas megathread

    it's probably still going to be before @crunchbits deploys those easter deals

    I got my crankbis easter delivered, and was before dartnode I think

    I think all of us have gotten an invoice issued by now (and it should deploy as soon as its paid) :P

    What's the DartNode wait up? For the Dedi?

    Their VPS system exploded apparently

    I apologize for the unacceptable issues you are having. I understand your frustration with the slow provisioning and server instability.

We apologize for the issue you are experiencing. It is because of the Black Friday rush going on on our system. The extremely high volume of orders has caused system instability.

Please rest assured your system will work properly after the rush is over. Please bear with us while our engineers are working tirelessly to fix this.

    Have a lot of Chinese people tried to buy VPS?

    or bots?

    Interesting.

    Maybe the machinations of competitors?

    Apparently they're like re-writing software or something - from the dartnode thread:

    @keoir said:
    We're aware of the issues with provisioning and also with the disk sizes, and are working on restoring the system over the past 24 hours.

    Yesterday, over 400 people ordered VMs in the span of an hour, causing our system to become under stress. We do not deploy things manually, but it is done by a job queue system that takes jobs and runs them.

    With the increased load, we started to have job queue failures; we're working on deploying more runners and also are tweaking the job queue to handle concurrent tasks.

    The job queue was due for a revamp for a while, and this has pushed us to do it in an emergency fashion. I am currently working on the software for the queue system with the runners, and once we have it up, we will redeploy everyone so your disks and everything are setup correctly.

    Did you get the promised extra double resources - halved invoice because of the penalty clause on the delivery delay?

    But at least some one's really keeping their word.

    All the impatient complaining aside, I've generally been a fan of dartnode so far, just this vps mess isn't a great look, but cheap deals and lots of orders was probably some fun stress testing for them lol

    They explained awhile back,
    Their existing system "queues" provisioning / OS reinstall, to maintain node performance ect, ect.
    It all imploded and couldn't keep up with the influx of new users and services, worse than just long queue. Just not working.

    However as bonus I got MULTI EXTRA SLASHED disk speeds (on 4K.) to like floppy disk speeds.

    Remarkable. I have something in the mail apparently.

    Do you have such persuasive powers with any choice exotic southern hemisphere hosts?

    Maybe you don't realize what powers you have... perhaps you could give it a shot.

    Your gifs were very moving but they didn't unfortunately press the right release-order button it seems and we were forgotten.
