GoDaddy hosting trouble

Be warned, GoDaddy is having trouble with their servers again (especially the MySQL servers). This they confirmed when I called them a few minutes ago. Bits of the site keep popping in and out of existence, so bear with it while they continue to engage in whatever form of sorcery they have been building up towards for the last few days. All parts of the blog and wiki have been affected, and the tech support people say they don’t know when it will end.

    GoDaddy hosting has become intolerably slow: is it certainly their fault? If so, can I do anything about it? If it isn’t their fault, what am I doing wrong?

    For some ping and traceroute data, have a look at this page on the wiki.
