B-list Celebs getting beat
The WOW Report had quite the exclusive today. If you like watching B-list celebs getting their ass kicked, this is the video for you.
It was such a popular video that the Drudge Report linked to us, but within minutes of listed there our site took a big dump. Turns out that our hosting provider wasn't ready for the traffic that a link like that would generate. After talking with them, it turns not to be the bandwidth or the server load, rather it was the concurrent connections. It seems that they build Apache for only 200 or so concurrent connections. After the link we were getting about 500 to 600. Not good apparently. So they rebuilt Apache so it can handle 500. Unfortunately, we didn't get to test it because the Drudge Report pulled the link.
Too bad really.
