Server Maintenance

Taking the server down 45 minutes from this post to do some checks in BIOS and run benchmark to see if we can learn more about performance issues.

Not sure how long it will be down, but guessing around an hour or so.

Will likely be a bit longer than I thought, but not too much so

Should be up again shortly. I did a couple BIOS tweaks to it, let me know of any new instability.

Was running very smooth many hours earlier, and seems ok so far.


Edit:

Just had a massive spike ~830 pm GMT. Not a connection threading issue or such? Couple of logins at the time (coincidence maybe) . We were in Fortress of Despair area btw.

Edit2:

Some stuff I never saw before with any server but have since the launch of new server:

-boomerang effect for location of current position that may be endless
-permanent freezing(almost like a crash) of current character without a nwn2.exe crash

Relogging actually seems to solve the above two issues(also could be coincidence).

lagging right now. funny thing is, it's a different lag between me and my gf. i'm experiencing near-freeze, she's seeing 3 second lag.
question: could it be the number of players?
edit: also, we were in the undersigil temple and logged out because of a lag spike. when we logged in again, all the mobs were gone.
edit2: currently 2 am, gmt+1. i confirm that lag spikes are indeed worse for me than for girlfriend. ping's worse for me too during lag spikes.

Just had a lagg session when surrounded by a bunch of enemies... Died horribly... Still lagging... Pressed respawn and lost about 2600xp at lvl 12. Which is slightly more than one should lose at that lvl if I remember correctly, also took about 5 minutes before started loading into the Mortuary, and then another 5 minutes in loading screen.

Another player had the same issue few days ago. Contact a DM to get back the additional XP and gold lost due to lag.

Just a suggestion, but it would be wise avoiding fighting while the server is like this... Or at least avoid dangerous areas.

All areas are dangerous... if they give xp anyway ;)

Im now getting a distinct feeling I could only call "choppiness" when trying to play now and I dont think its on my end.
