oh, and i'll go in the well if someone can provide me with a satisfactory explanation why the URL http://matchbook.com loads more reliably than http://www.matchbook.com .

Because their servers suck? There should be no difference. They both point to the same IP. The only thing that would make matchbook.com slower is if they were routing connections to that URL to another location as they came in to their server.

They _could_ be using separate virtual webserver instances on the same IP, and if so could even have both instances pointing to different databases behind.

They could also be using a load balancer to distribute traffic and have different rules or configurations for the www. url vs the straight url which hit more reliable servers clusters.

Its pretty much impossible to tell without an answer from someone in IT at matchbook. From where I sit, there's nothing that's accessible to a casual scan from the internet that would tell me anything.
