This lag..
 

It's become unbearable. Is Stefan aware that it is still happening even after the server switch? Something needs to be done about this. Anyone have thoughts? This needs to be brought up and talked about until it is fixed.

Apparently its not just era, but also the iservers.
We are currently restarting the npcserver (that too seems to take longer then usual...)

Restarting it probably won't do much. It'd be like trying to reconnect to an already laggy queue. Reconnecting just adds to the problem.

You should go to their office in 501 Silverside Road, Wilmington, Delaware and give David Manager hell.

If the problem is memory usage forcing the machine to swap, then restarting the NPC-server could easily fix that problem. I don't know what the nature of the current lag is, but the way servers are hosted literally anybody could bring down servers like Era and Zodiac simply by sucking up resources on their own private playerworld. If another server is using the resources, though, restarting your own NPC-server is unlikely to do much.

The restart has helped, there must be some kind of bad memory leak somewhere. I am un-sure how to find such a thing on graal, though.

Just throw graal into the trashbin, atm no one is getting less then 170ms, no single player has double digit ms, Lol.

It's not just Era, on UN players all have an average of 130-140 ms, including myself. There are a few players under 100 ms but not many that I've seen. Sadly enough, I've kind of gotten used to it.

Era making us have so much high ping on zod everyone has 300-600 ping!!!

era's lag is off the roof now
although the spar lag limit has gone up to 300ms, even americans have trouble starting spars at times

i'm sure this lag isn't great for business Stefan =/

this lag is taking its toll on me she said goodbye about 40 seconds ago but i just now got the message

online dating is hard :(

It's not as laggy as usual, but it's better than it used to be.

what?

Colorful are you sure.. that week was the laggiest of them all.. and its still lagging sadly

all hail server lag, multiple people unable to spar, so pointless..

yup

It really is a shame. I can't believe I used to play this game with so much less lag. Hopefully someone will do something about it.

Unfortunately when infrastructure and servers are discussed this is normally the outcome: http://i42.tinypic.com/mc9hcz.png

unfortunately stefan never realised what the real potential of era and other servers was. he might be good at scripting or w.e he does but he decided to settle for the relatively small amounts of cash pc graal makes instead of investing on graal

beside this grumbling A-hole ^

any update on why it lags out and makes 40+ people get D/C'd every day

my brain bleeds whenever i read one of your post. it's not gushing blood or anything but every now and then an annoying little trickle of blood will leak out of my ear onto my brand new white tshirt. for compensation for constant ear bleeds i have awarded you with one more red rep bar.

Let's see if we can make it a third...

i'll try to make it simple next time ;)

Heyyyy, you're back to 2 red bars :D
Who pos repped you last time anyways?

**** bloodykiller, talk about a solution to this lag

Better DDoS protection would be nice.

better having nothing than having **** protection that dont even protect from ddos
and only hurts the customers... like really, worst service ever

no ddos protection would be nice, its great how they are hindering their customers from playing a game with expensive internet connection and a super computer.. this is just too much BS!
