Server performance update

We're currently updating the server core to increase resilience when lot of players are connected (7k each day for a week now).
This is a major performance upgrade, that can cause the server to restart for maximum hour from now.
You should notice a lag/delay reduction, especially tonight during server population peak, if everything is working.

During our stress tests, we experienced a variable delay reduction, from 20% to 70%.

EDIT 14:10: The update is now live, and the crash source has been identified and fixed. The realm is stable now.

Hello Viper! First of all let me thank you and the team for great work! Nostalrius brought back some great memories. :)

I would like to know why don't you schedule a weekly server maintenance like they were back in Vanilla on tuesdays/wednesdays to apply all the updates? Currently my party is inside an instance and we are getting constantly disconnected because of your initiatives (althought it's all for the good cause I know, but still...).
