One of the primary root causes of the recent instability and performance issues with the overall site - and especially the Collector Zone - was determined to be a faulty memory module. This evening, that memory module was removed. Once that happened, I was able to successfully perform various tasks to check, repair and optimize the Collector Zone data as well as create an additional backup of important data.
At this time, the managed dedicated server is currently operating with half of its normal memory. An additional hardware change will be made soon in order to restore the server to previous memory levels. Once that repair is scheduled, I will inform everyone with an update in this topic.
Bottom line is that we're currently operating much better with half the memory, but only "good" memory! Plus, we'll be back to full strength soon! Then, I can finally begin to sleep again and all of you can point your browser in the direction of TCC and know that you'll once again be experiencing fast performance and stability.
Thank you for your patience and understanding during these periods of recent, less-than-acceptable downtimes.

Just as general information... The nightly backup process will now begin at 4 AM EST and is normally completed in less than one hour. When the process first begins, you might notice a brief period (2-3 minutes) of "lagging" on the site. However, this process is now scheduled to take place during the slowest period of activity each day. Therefore, the extra "load" may not affect the members that are indeed active at that time. Previously, the nightly backup process began at 1 AM EST. At that time, we often still have significant activity on the site and the "lagging" may have been more obvious. So, this is one example of an improvement that was triggered by the recent issues. -Bob

Thanks for your hard work Bob! I was mildly disappointed to see a "maintenance" message last night (no TCC ), but I knew it meant Bob was hard at work getting the past problems taken care of!
