Recently, we observed some comments on http://ayyaantuu.com that were deliberately posted to disturb and abuse the purpose of blogging on ayyaantuu. Although, the hosting system plugin can catch certain terminologies, including curse words for later moderation, there are still quite many unwelcomed words succeed to go through and posted immediately.
We have also observed that there are some individuals who are trying to overload the server with junk. Ayyaantuu.com experienced latency and timeouts for over three weeks now.
We doubled up the system memory only two weeks ago, partially due to the increase in traffic. At the same time we started building a second ayyaantuu to spread traffic around and for failover purpose.
The hosting company suspects that there installed a process hacking tool on ayyaantuu, which starts a number of PHP processes at a time. These processes cause slow loading in the user browsers, sometimes ending up with error 503 server unavailable. We are working to trace such abuses.
Our immediate concern lies now with the comments. We want to take a measure which is good for you. Thus, we want to hear from you on how to handle comments.
