Yesterday in Second Life: Second Life Daily News

By Tateru Nino

Yesterday in Second Life there was:

  • 14,791 new signups bringing the total to 12,485,596 signups.
  • A peak concurrency of 63,409 at 1:40PM (and a new record!), and a minimum concurrency of 35,039 at 11:55PM. Median concurrency for the day was 47,812.
  • The Grid Stability Index for the day was 1.12 (lower is better).
  • There was a bump at about 9:30AM which caused widespread problems with HTTP, emails and networked vendors – though it didn't last very long.
  • This weekend there was a media demonstration of the (now-patched) Quicktime vulnerability. Press coverage of the demonstration didn't cover any important information, but seems to indicate that it was the original flaw that was demonstrated using a viewer without protections that were subsequently put into place.
