Pounding UB HH

[MattHatter]

So lets say your UltimateHistory type program will hit the UB HH screen like crazy and get all the histories for that table.

You share this program... and all of a sudden tons of ppl are pounding the hell out of the HH database. Downloading 20,000+ hands an hour UB sees a big spike in load/traffic and.....


So is this a good program? Or a bad program?

It's UB's fault for not offering a history interface (i.e. email) that's compatible with PT.

It's akin to Google's problem with blog spamming.

Fix the system and the problem goes away.
