Downtime 2:30am EST / 11:30pm PST
LibraryThing will go down at 2:30am EST / 11:30pm PST / 7:30 GMT for a major swap. The "big new server" I got some months ago has proved very fast, but also glitchy. My database guy thinks it was some interaction between the OS FreeBSD and MySQL. He's made a Linux server—exact same hardward—that seems never to crash under similar stress. That sure would be swell. Everyone cross your fingers!
Oh, and don't worry about your data. Obviously the change-over will be backed up six ways from seven.

I'm a developer who advocates FreeBSD, and I have a MySQL server running on my FreeBSD server at home. If you have an opportunity, I'd like to know the details about the problem you were having. FreeBSD should run MySQL just as well as Linux.
