RIZZASTERServer Lag Update
/archive/crates/plugins/ · last edited 06 Feb 2022 · Events
As of our last server reboot, we've noticed a noticeable increase in lag across the board. This has been affecting gameplay, causing frustration for our users, and hindering our ability to provide a smooth experience. Our usual testing procedures were inconclusive, but our usual troubleshooting checks yielded an interesting result: the lag seems to be most pronounced during periods of high player activity, particularly during peak hours and large-scale events.
Further investigation revealed that our server's RAM usage was at an all-time high, even with the usual adjustments made to optimize performance. This has led us to question the need for further optimization of our server configuration and to consider upgrading our hardware to ensure a more stable experience. We're currently researching new RAM configurations and considering a potential upgrade in the coming weeks.
Our volunteer moderators have been working diligently to identify and resolve the issue, monitoring server performance and attempting to pinpoint the source of the lag. We're also exploring new methods for better load balancing and server distribution to alleviate the pressure on individual nodes. We're working tirelessly to bring back the smooth gameplay our users deserve, but we acknowledge that this won't happen overnight.
We'll be keeping a close eye on server performance and will make further adjustments as needed. For now, we appreciate the patience and understanding of our users as we navigate this challenge.
