• The Grid Stability Index for the day was 1.61 (lower is better).

• A rack of hardware lost communications during the day, taking out a slew of simulators that had to be migrated to other servers. Linden Lab has published a full list of the affected sims.

• Concerns came up today that the long delays in relisting people/places/groups for search may be being amplified by a bug in the google search appliance software. A new version is under test.
