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.
Others are found at Kilauea Volcano in Hawaii, Mount Erebus in Antarctica, Ambrym, Vanuatu and Erta' Ale in Ethiopia. In 2002, an eruption by Nyiragongo destroyed much of the nearby town of Goma, leaving 200,000 people homeless. The eruption spread lava as far as the northern end of the runway at Goma International Airport - around 12 miles (20km) away.
