Turf server(s) stop responding when new round starts

Status

closed

Resolution

fixed

Priority

normal

Severity

minor

Steps to reproduce

Try access Turf just when a new round has started.

Description

When a new round starts at 12:00 CET first Sunday of the month the turf server(s) stop responding for at least ten, sometimes up to 40 minutes (this last Sunday, about 30 minutes). Frequently the time after server(s) become available the system is very slow and unresponsive for a number of additional hours. I suggest that each round ends an hour earlier - at 11:00 CET and that any active users are disconnected at that time. This will allow you to, in an orderly fashion 1. Run the script that updates the fairy 2. Run the script that resets all zones 3. Apply whatever fixes and updates you may want to apply. 4. Reboot the servers 5. Open up the new round for users at 12:00

If you take a zone during sunday it sometimes gets green for you, but will not be blocked, the revisit time is only 20h and others see another owner of the zone. (Above is something that might help to track down the cause, or it isn't. I add it anyway) I think Kingslayers idea is interesting and maybe something to at least test at the end of this round?

This is a very serious issue that has been known for a long time, its the number of users that are crash the servers and scripts probably.
