During the VP debate, we simply didn't have enough horsepower on the frontend. I've more than doubled our frontend capacity by adding a second machine. This problem will not be repeated.
Elsewhere, I've tuned components in an effort to take tonight's spike. I benched 150 simultaneous hits with the system performing reasonably. We will be able to take the hits tonight, though around 150 hits per second response time will jump from less than 1 second to less than 2 seconds. Not bad, but could be better. With a few more weeks effort I will improve that score.
If all else fails, I'll put the forum into "overload" mode and turn off graphics and we'll pull through tonight. Worst case.

One last question, do you think the VP debate bottle neck was a result of newbies(brought about by interest in rathergate/buckhead) or just frenzied activity amongst the loyal?
Thanks for your time
