BlogPatrol database maintenance

March 27, 2009
7:35 AM - The database is still responding slowly to user requests. Running another set of maintenance activities.

11:56 AM - The database seems to be loading much more quickly now. If anyone else is experiencing slow times for loading your stats, please let me know.

EST (UTC-4 America/New York) - BlogPatrol will be offline this afternoon so that we can conduct maintenance on our database. We will post an update once we are back online.

2:35 PM - Started database maintenance. BlogPatrol.com is offline and not tracking stats during this time.

9:25 PM - The database maintenance is complete. We have successfully purged records older than 21 days from the system. When the database gets too large, it makes the web site performs much slower. We have also run an integrity check on the database to make sure all is well with the system.
