Yes, PrimeGrid is down.

We're not sure whether or not this outage is related to the planned maintenance scheduled for tomorrow. The BOINC server started having serious disk performance problems, and we haven't been able to correct them. At this point, we're rebuilding the server. This will take several hours, at least. During this time, the server will likely be completely down, including all the web pages and forums.

Mike: Since we're down anyway, we're taking the opportunity to build newer generation servers with newer versions of linux and mysql, as well as upgrading the hardware. 7:42
Mike: It's only a matter of "when" we come back up, not "if". We may be up sometime today (Sunday). If not, Tuesday is likely. 7:43
Mike: Correction: MONDAY is likely. smile
