CCP's metrics don't really say anything as they are presented now:
Quote: Memory usage on the server per user has decreased in the last 12 months
How much memory was added in that period compared to the growth in subscribers ? And if memory was added, was this done to all nodes, leading to lightly loaded nodes showing even less memory use per user ?
Quote: CPU Per User on the server has remained constant for the last 6 months except for a short period in late January where it went up just a bit
Again, was there a hardware increase done here that was done system wide, meaning lightly loaded systems with no performance issues now use even less resourced per user ?
Quote: Server log lines have been decreasing significantly since February, meaning fewer errors are being generated by the server
Does the Traffic Control message count as an error in these logs ?
Quote: CCP also moitors the client health such as the memory and CPU usage at different stages in the game (login, char select, game exit)
It's good to hear that is monitored. But what are the results ?
Quote: Crashes: Only 0.3û0.5% of sessions end in a dirty shutdown (client crash). It must be stated that disconnections and crashes are not the same thing.
The game rarely crashes on me, it much more often freezes up and I have to put it out of its misery. Or the socket gets closed, does this count as a dirty shutdown ?

Thank you for your answers. No matter what they are it's very refreshing to see CCP enter into a dialogue.

Originally by: CCP Zulu we're confident that you'll start seeing improvements to the current lag issues soon.
Is this a faster soon than the one posted February 4th ?
Originally by: CCP Atlas The problems we are experiencing post-Dominion are being worked on and they will be fixed soon

How can I reconcile these two statements by the same company:
Quote:
'CCP has invested significant time and resources throughout EVE's history on increasing the performance of fleet fights. We've always had a team of developers devoted to improving our technology and in recent years we made exponential headway through massive server upgrades and initiatives like "Stackless IO".
'Currently, unsurprisingly, this effort is our No.1 development priority
versus
Quote:
Incarna (9 teams, approximately 70 developers)
Fixing lag (4 teams, approximately 15 developers)
-One of these statements is a flat out lie. -In the time between the two statments a massive shift in resource allocation has occured. -The Lag team works 6 times as hard as the Incarna team
