The 9:43 PM Server Bug
As many of you know, the CD server goes down at about 9:43 PM (PST) every night for about 9 minutes. I have always wondered what it is doing during this time.

I'm not sure what this hosting company's (Ventures Online?) policy is but most have a 99.9% uptime guarantee. This means that it will not be up approximately .1% or .001 of the time. There are 1440 minutes in each day. The server is down for about 9 of those minutes every day. 9/1440 = about .6% or .006. Over six times the maximum allowed downtime! So, perhaps there is a free month in this somewhere for CD??...
