iRev’s insane server load – Let me show you it!
iRev, in its current home of a Celery 1ghz, seems to always be under a fascinating heavy load. I’ve been monitoring that load using a Windows Sidebar Gadget for the last year. I put together the gadget from example gadget scripts on the web, and while its not perfect it shows whats going on in iRev reliably. Only significant bug: one must go into the gadget’s settings at start up and hit the “OK” button.

I use it, it is fun and tasty. It tastes like orange and lime and sometimes blue raspberry. It makes me happy.
