Hi,

Saturn just experiencing high load making it effectively appear offline. The problem has been tracked down to a script trying to generate a cache for a site. The problem being the script running on Saturn was trying to load pages locally from Saturn to cache them at such a fast rate that it turned into a denial of service and caused load/iowait to shoot up.

The site owner has been notified and the site suspended while this problem is rectified.

Apologies for any inconvenience caused by this unexpected downtime.

Thanks,

Andrew
