I got an automated email today telling me the web server's CPU usage had spiked to 100%. It looks like someone was running a search bot through their entire MP3 collection and trying to download the lyrics for all of them from the site.
This type of activity brings the server to a crawl, so I have no choice but to block IP addresses that are doing this. This is the only way I can ensure the site is available for all of the other users.
One query per second is the maximum I will allow. Anyone sending queries faster than this on a regular basis will be blocked from the site. |
| 10,000! |

| In the last 24 hours, we crossed the 10,000 lyric threshold. Thanks so much to those of you who've contributed lyrics over the past few years! |

| There was some downtime today due to some extra security measures at the new web host. Hopefully things should be running smoothly now, but if not, PM or email me with any problems you have. |
