A while back I wrote a blog post about the performance issues we’ve been having with JoomlaCode’s maintenance routines. We’ve been trying to work out how to best keep JoomlaCode running as fast as possible whilst maintaining stability (so far we’ve lost stability for productivity with server downtime for maintenance) and we’ve decided our next best move is to do an upgrade of PostgreSQL. But as with everything upgrades require down time (again!) so we’re going to take JoomlaCode down so that we can do an upgrade and a few other performance tuning tasks. We’re hoping that after this upgrade we will be able to run the maintenance scripts smoother than we have been doing at present and with less disruption.
