schestowitzTrying to recall the history of it all, about a month ago it became regular for the server to sometimes cease serving while I was asleep, more rarely during daytime when I could see the alert and take action. I assume this may have been related to what was then known as a vulnerability, perhaps one allowing visitors to cripple a site they dislike. I didn't look too deeply into what flaws had been addressed. In any case, as soon as I Jan 28 12:01
schestowitzupgraded WordPress I saw that the issues almost vanished entirely, so a causal correlation may be presumed here. In any event, I always watch out for security-critical releases such as these. I need to have the mail alerts about such releases arrive more quickly (I only got them 1.5 days after the release, concurring with the worst times/downtimes for the site).Jan 28 12:02
