Surely those 11 would be the load balancing stack in front, then again 24 million requests lasting 10 minutes over 72hours is only ~1k requests per second, probably easily manageable by 11 servers with a bunch of big SQL boxes behind it.

Tracing to the IPs gives different results.

.1 includes ibm.
.2 goes straight.
.3 includes ibm
.4 goes straight
.5 includes ibm but fails to reach target
.6... *

They spent $50k on a 3rd party to do load testing, I wonder what the success criteria of that testing looked like?

Just completed it then was super snappy for me, so assuming they either ramped up servers or people gave up lol.

Their phone number too just rings out with "we're too busy, please call back". Probably due to aforementioned issues.. and then the few million old people who are trying to do it over the phone. Or people who need to call because they were doing it and their session died and their 9 digit code no longer works :/

Yep lots of various errors even earlier this morning – took about 5 minutes of refreshing to actually get into the site. Once in though it worked ok, hate to see how it will handle the load now its peak hour.

Not surprising – but anyone else seeing issues with the Census site tonight ?

Seems Soft layer is serving up parts of this behind the scenes..
Im seeing  504 errors from soft layer for large chunks of IP ranges – but not all.

Anyone else seeing this ?
