Arrow Early AM Server Glitch?

I've encountered some difficulties with the forum server between the hours of 3AM and 4AMish on most days.

I get an average ping okay (225ms, 0 packet loss), and my URL checker confirms the site's not down, but I can't connect (post/refresh) before timing out. Even if I log out, clear my cache and cookies, and then try to log back in doesn't clear the apparent glitch.

I'm wondering if this is just me, or any other night owls are having similar issues? I'm using Firefox v.44.0.2 with Win 8.1, 64 bit.

So when do you guys suggest that we do the required daily server maintenance? We do the daily routine stuff between 1-2 a.m and the backup between 3-4 a.m both of which have significant impact on server performance.

Cheers
Russ

Thanks. At least I now know there's a reason, and it's not at my end.
