diagnosing site slowness

Hi all --

Hello! I'm back from the wilderness of Alaska, and I'm now helping [personal profile] alierak, [personal profile] fu, and [staff profile] denise to resolve the recent issues Dreamwidth has been experiencing.

I'm going to be working on things over the next hour or two, so you may see a bit of a blip as I redirect traffic and make some changes. Please feel free to let me know here if anything goes awry badly, but it should be pretty smooth.

Thanks for all of your patience through this. Slowness is sad, we'll do what we can to nip it in the bud. :)

Edit: I've made a change to how we route static traffic to reduce load on our load balancer. If you notice anything wrong with images or embedding (or anything else!), please let me know.

Lol, I was thinking this too. On the bright side, it's good to feel needed, I suppose? XD
