Sadly, the Fish might have been a red herring after all. We did see some overall better perf for the first hour or so after restarts but memory usage has continued to creep up as more players and instances/copies of zones spun up so we definitely haven’t found our silver bullet here.
We have a few …

So as a few of you have noted, we’ve done a few restarts today and made a few changes, and while performance looked a little better for a while, it eventually got back into a degraded state. The tricky thing here is it hasn’t been one single problem, but a collection of things causing degraded serve…

We’ve made some server changes and are now processing the queue faster than it’s growing, but there is a bit of a backlog to churn through. For example, I just made a template character and that was nearly instant, and my copy appeared to fail but by the time I logged onto another character and back…

We’re still investigating but we are seeing many cases where the copy/template goes through, just greatly delayed (like 10+ minutes, some as much as 30).
Obviously this is not intended, but for now we’re advising not spamming copies or character templates.

Greetings!
The raid testing schedule is very fluid and subject to the realities of a test environment. There’s the possibility of having to change the time of a testing session, change the bosses being tested, or cancel a test entirely due to bugs, server hardware issues, etc.
