Enhancement to an enhancement

In a previous post we discussed a reliability enhancements to the HEAVYROTATIONS main page:
  • Some sites or blogs would go "bad" or slow and HEAVYROTATIONS would freeze and, on refresh, would sometimes crash. Blogger (blogpost.com) was a particularly prone host for this behavior.
  • Our initial reliability enhancement would flag the affected site or blog, blocking it from view until we did a manual review and reset the flag. This caused some sites or blogs experiencing transient problem to be invisible for fairly long times.
  • The new evolution is self-fixing; when the site or blog starts responding correctly if becomes visible again.
  • We do verify the sites or blogs that remain questionable for a long period of time and eliminate those that are truly dead

To benefit from this enhancement you have to either quit and come back in or refresh the page.
