They've got one. EVE uses multiple servers running separate nodes, integrated through a SSD-RAID database. It's the most powerful gaming computer on the planet, and I believe the largest single network cluster as well (been a long time since I say that last one confirmed though). They had a devblog a while back about their reinforced server node they use for fleet fights- it was some kind of liquid cooled monstrosity that they can't even release the specs on, as a condition for being allowed to use it. Sadly that devblog has been deleted and I can't find a copy of it.

There were current details in one of the presentations at last year's fan fest. Lots of IBM, and some spiffy SSD from what I recall.

No, I will not find it for you. Yes, I am quite lazy.

Has this constant Jita is overloaded and you can't go there just become acceptable?

This really effects me as a player when Jita is off limits.

Is anyone looking for a solution?

Does CCP really feel the current situation is acceptable?

Players have legitimate reasons to want to go to the largest market hub in the game whenever they want.

Maybe they could add a commodities exchange. Something to the extent of 1 station in every region that has this special service that allows you to see every buy and sell order in all of New Eden. And at these stations can you buy and also place sell orders outside of your current region, which you are currently limited to if you spent the time to train marketing and procurement to 5 anyway. I know Jita is a pain in the ass with the spammers, but I don’t think it’s them that are causing it. I’ve sat there at the Perimeter gate waiting to get in and watched the Providence’s and Charon’s start stacking up.
It’s caused by those guys that have 3 or 4 trade alts on at the same time spread out across New Eden buying low and then shipping it to Jita to sell it high and turning a nice 30 to 50 percent profit. If people can see what the buy and sells are in Jita from somewhere on the back side of Devoid or Khanid they are not going to take it in the shorts and just take whatever the local buy order is because they are not sure that eve central has not been updated and waste time hauling it there themselves to find out that that order had been filled. They are going to start asking more for their items. Or they are going to buy them and then have them shipped to them and that’s going to cut into the percentage of profit for that guy with 4 trade alts. Maybe he won’t be able to PLEX all his accounts then?

Long before I started playing EVE there was Yulai, if I'm not mistaken. Now there is Jita. If you close it by whatever means, there will pop another trade hub. And of all trade hubs in EVE one will be the biggest and will bring most attention, and the cycle will repeat.

In short, you're proposing a solution to a wrong problem.
