Hey everyone,
It looks like the server has only been backing up every few hours or so...which is really bizarre, since it's set to back up every 10 minutes. This erratic outage and a recent crashes make me think it is actually the hardware acting up--the hard disk appears to have errors so I am putting in a service request to my hosting provider.
As it stands, it was actually in the middle of a backup when it crashed which is *extremely* suspicious since the software I use to run the database and backup routines (sqlite) is known for its incredible stability. It should never crash unless there is a problem with the hardware.
Sorry about all this, keep in mind this is still beta. Once this is all fixed I'll do something to make up the lost time.
