    notice this lag today too for about 15mins assumed it was me but others in the guild were mentioning it. most likely a spike in traffic at the hosting provider and outside of gix control. could have been a DDoS and took the hosting a bit to kick in the mitigation. in general this is a non-problem and haven't seen it before or since.

    ^ this

    A lag for few seconds / minutes is really insignificant.


    Mail from hosting company which took immediate action.

    I can't be mad for a few seconds or few minutes of lag in MONTHS/YEARS so don't worry, internet is created by humans so there can't be perfection. Any company may face issues, network spikes, downtimes, etc so just be patient in those few seconds/minutes while having problems.

    Also i doubt most of you realize how much represents a 80Gbps attack but just think that the less expensive mitigate equipment of our hosting company costs around $500,000 - $750,000 :) Also all attacks are mitigated < 1 second without human intervence, but indeed there are rare times when an attack may leak through so thats why they'll be doing this upgrade.
