My load script keeps dying while doing a geonames lookup, but almost every time it's when it's doing a lookup with a latitude of 180.0 degrees or -180.0 degrees. The geonames lookup either gets a socket time-out or returns a 503 error. It doesn't seem to happen when doing lookups with different longitudes.

it is certainly not you. Do you also experience this problem right now? Right now all servers are ok, the load is not too high right now.

This time it actually processed enough points to hit the hourly limit. It hasn't managed to do that in days.

I removed any code related to geonames from http://www.ratethisplanet.com, thinking that it could cause problems, but it probably wasn't. Thing is, PHP's curl_init() does seem to consume a lot of CPU power.

It was certainly not a single application. In the mean time we have doubled the capacity and for the time being it looks ok.
