Comment on Cause of YC/HN outage discoveredparent

Comments

I was told in a friendly conversation with one of their service reps that shared accounts get roughly 200-250MB of total memory usage (Ruby on Rails bumped me over, for example) and a "certain amount" of 95%ile bandwidth averaged over some time. I have a feeling they sort their customer list based on these two values every once and a while and send the top X accounts a message.
