What is so special about the Sunday morning of stake conference?

Is it because half of the USA is doing the same thing and the Church servers can't cope?

You'd think the folks running the servers would notice. I'm wondering if the network/isp they're connected to is saturating. It seems to me that would be more likely to escape notice.

I don't remember for sure, but I seem to remember a mention that the Church servers were only about 65% utilized during a peak Sunday morning several years ago. I suspect that is why they don't think they could be a contributor to the problem.

I really wish we could just buy computers for the stake that we could set up for our a/v purposes.

For webcast purposes, your Stake President can direct the use of local unit funds for purchasing such equipment. See Section 8.3.3 here Local Unit Provided Equipment.

Thanks! Looks like there have been lots of updates; last I heard we weren't aloud to buy computers for any purpose.
