    Results aren't on Moodle - they're on student web services

    But they're on the same host, no?

    I can't wait any longer for this. :(

    I can't even get on the NUIM homepage now!!!!!!!

    Why don't they build one that can handle loads of requests? It would come in handy twice a year.

    They have one or two machines like that (Moodle lives on two beasts of computers) as well as a web hosting cluster for the nuim.ie page and the like, but this system seems to live separately to those on its own box.

    I can't even get on the college home page.... Why don't they post the results out first? They used to. Save a lot of madness.

    Or they could just put them up during the night so there isn't a big rush at midday.

    Its a security thing, they don't want some data off the physical site.

    Having said that, the computer centre got a major upgrade last year, with proper cooling and power systems.
    Most datacenters are under 24/7 armed guard, I highly doubt the computer centre would be a more secure site!! They should cop on and move most of the services of site, keeping them locally would save on bandwidth but as I understand, they get their connection from Heanet for free.

    what would be the point then? why would you want them online if you have them already? i thought the online version was because it takes so long for the post to arrive.

    Tbh I think we'd all still be sitting on the computer pressing F5.

    24/7 Armed Guard? That very rarely happens... ever.

    For Data protection reasons and back up reasons its still better to keep them on site, For example all important data is backed up and stored securely on campus (Safes)

    The university gets its 3 Gbps internet connection for free yes, but most of the data it stores is not visible outside the campus, for example all student records.

    They know what there doing.

    Your confident tone is actually quite reassuring. Feel free to keep saying stuff.
