15 seconds AT MOST.

The * has been on one side or the other EASILY 66% of the time over the LAST 2 DAYS.

What 'attack' ?

i put forward a hypothesis a few weeks ago about how some big players would try to exploit the deficiencies in the Bitcoinica model which i think have become more apparent today.

if you can create a lot of volatility and * events, i think it will cost Zhou money in the end since any acct losses cost him money.  for sure, it is costing his customers who are now starting to walk away. 

no players; no fees.

double ** is when bitcoinica cant connect to mtgox api

I think, that Z should provide clear indication of connection problems (date, time and resolution status)

As if anything will come of it.

It's intermittent. Usually it doesn't last more than 15 seconds. You can just place orders and you will be fine.

Speak of the devil. Now burn GOX!

i think the attack on Bitcoinica has begun. 

this type of volatility can't be good for Zhou.  at least not for his customers who are being liquidated.  no players; no money.

why hasn't he come forward to tell us what's going on?

Nothing is going on. The system handles everything perfectly (including your spamming orders).

The asterisk is due to Mt. Gox API unstability, if you place order it still should get executed in 15 seconds AT MOST.

I wonder why anyone would associate market volatility with Bitcoinica system instability. Why can't we build something better than Mt. Gox?

Might be he should implement service level agreements with mtgox,
automated link testing on different levels of network model,
and so on
