We Couldn't Wait: Database Maintenance Underway

April 18, 2008 - 12:04

We have the database maintenance scripts written, and this morning we tested them out on one of our older sites (that we built for ourselves). We did say that we would do the maintenance overnight, but we were so happy with how fast and smoothly the test went that we decided to run it on 100 active sites on this, a Friday afternoon, and evaluate from there. We make backups on every site before proceeding with the maintenance, so no content will be lost.

If you see something unusual or unexpected on our site, please continue to report it and we'll look at it right away.

Another 100
