Planned load balancer failover shortly

Hi all,

As part of our new hardware project, I'm going to be failing us over to our new load balancers. This will involve a brief downtime for the site while everything fails over, but it should be less than 60 seconds.

Thanks for your patience, and sorry for the interruption!

is this related to how slow and dodgy the site's been lately? i'm getting really long load times trying to post entries, somewhat long load times trying to post comments, and the odd 503 error. been going on for about two days now. (eta) also notifications have been wonky, especially tracked stuff for when communities update.

No, this was a while ago and we've been stable since then.

I did move some things around last night that might have affected notifications in the past 24 hours. I will investigate and see if anything seems to be amiss.
