Darn it, you hugged it harder than my tiny Amazon box could handle. Resizing the box now.

All good now - thanks, AWS! And thanks to everyone for the feedback. Wasn't expecting to launch my game today, but I'm glad I did.

I'd be interested to know how you got back up and running so quickly.

With AWS it's easy. You stop the machine, resize it to a bigger one with more CPU and/or RAM, then fire it up. This can be done in minutes.

Yep, this. Went perfectly, and thanks to Akka Persistence, end users (hopefully) just saw a minute of lag before their game resumed.
