That was clientside lag, and it had to do with him using player attributes to display nick names .



Sounds to me like this is a common issue, and perhaps Stefan is spreading the machines too thin?

And/or maybe a server is doing some lag-intensive script at that time.

Well, besides the fact that there is no such thing as a "lag-intensive" script, I think you'd be hard pressed to make a script capable of pretty much crashing every single server on the machine you're on.

Unlikely, since it happens every day at the same time.

I don't quite remember. It was something along the lines of a huge loop in another huge loop doing excessive file .txt file manipulation. Took 25 minutes for the script to cancel itself, and during that time, I apparently lagged all servers (or so Bell stated, I went afk shopping food when I realized RC wasn't responding to me).

A script that causes extreme lag? And also I'm pretty sure Zodiac did that one time.

Also, I didn't see that "backing-up" post, which seems likely as well.

"Lag" is not a resource, therefore a script cannot be lag-intensive.

This.

I'm thinking as well that the issue is related to the machine Era Dev is on.
