Workload Profile. The performance of the system is dependent on how the load is delivered to the system. For example it is easier to achieve faster response times for a system that receive an regular arrival of work throughout the day compared to one that receive burst of traffic.
The January 17 2002 eruption of Nyiragongo volcano started suddenly at 8:25 local time. The eruption effectively involved a reopening and extension of the 1977 fault system and a renewed drainage of the lava lake, followed by the eruption of some magma from a deeper source.
Italian geologist Francesco Pandolfo travelled to Africa to study the volcanic activity on Mount Nyiragongo in the Democratic Republic of Congo when he decided to peer over the edge to get a closer look. He reportedly abseiled into the volcano's crater to capture these stunning images of what a raging volcano and lava lake looks like.
