What are you using to generate those svg graphs ?
A very modified dimple.js: http://dimplejs.org/ We plan on making our own library with improved rendering speeds and extended functionality.
Show HN: HN Status Page in the style of HN with detailed metrics

#22How about a Status/Issues page in the style of the Hacker News or Reddit homepage?
Each link is an issue you should fix with your site, or a TODO item you could finish, or a bug report, or a chart of some site data. Automatically generated and refreshed to keep the addictive fresh content factor high. Comments from your coworkers. Trick you into doing work rather than surfing HN.

#23I guess I'm used to nearly a megabyte of javascript coming over the network, but... Four embedded fonts? Just to get the character ⓘ and a checkmark, both of which are just regular unicode characters that these font files mis-encode? Does anyone even look at anything any more?
In FireFox you can set gfx.downloadable_fonts.enabled to false in about:config and have a much faster web experience. It's especially super useful on mobile.
That renders this site more broken though, since there's just brown squares all over the page instead of characters from whatever font. I suppose due to no fallback?

#24Pretty nice but the scaling for the "Website TCP Connection Time" graph seems off: average time seem to be in the mSec range but scale max is 100 so you just see a nearly flat line at 0.

#25Looks cool, sadly they charge $70 for password protection, else I would consider it.
I think you commented on the wrong post?
Not according to the pricing page?

Most of the fonts loaded are variations of Open Sans, which are used throughout the pages. We'll look into improving the degradation when the icon font loads; it's just the Octicon font set. Thanks for pointing this out.
You can subset the font with Fontello.

#27It appears that a lot of the links aren't real links. I tried to open them in a new tab and it also navigated the current tab.
