There won't be a massive spike at 0900.  The 'waiting rooms' are handled on separate infrastructure by Queue-It (who say they can handle 500 million across their datacentres). At 0900 Queue-It will then feed the queue to See in order, and at a rate that the See infrastructure can process efficiently and effectively, hence avoiding any bottleneck (at least that's their theory....).

But only up to 65535 clients..

How do we get your IP banned from queues knowing your history    So, you worked basically as a full time ticket tout in a sense? 😅

In previous sales, no - the booking system was entirely independent from the normal SeeTickets ecosystem. From what we can see there's nothing to suggest this will change, but who knows!

So, the queue will hit 2 million about half a second after 9am Sunday, a huge percentage will be people 'holding a place' to tout once they get close, and we'll be managing/watching the queue all day instead of the usual 20mins to 1hour and it's over lark.   Can't see anything here to make me feel better about the new arrangement. I experienced the hell of this system for the Oasis tix....
