New Forum Speed! Is it Fast?

[BigMike]

We have moved our entire website to a new dedicated server, and it is so remarkably fast for me I am in love. This will cut my updating time way down as the old shared server was faaaaaaaar too slow to manage our growing business.

At the bottom of each page here, it reports how much time was required to create each page. What used to average about 4 seconds has now moved up to 0.1 seconds.

The slowest page load I have seen so far is 0.3 seconds.

Thanks for being patient as we worked hard to bring you the very best in our website experience! We hope to be one of the fastest forums available for your Rock Crawling Needs.

Same here.  Still moves ass slow on picture heavy pages, but that's due to dial up and not the site's fault

The Rig Gallery was a bit slow for me too, "Page created in 0.911 seconds with 16 queries."

I am so happy with how fast this forum is now. I know that some people were turned away due to it being slow. That is a thing of the past.

[Duffil]

double post

[Duffil]

I dunno... but I am on a bootlegged questionable dialup

[Willy Mammoth]

Could still be updating and will need time to settle down.

Also it don't matter how fast the server is if the provider bottle necks when everybody starts hitting the porn sights.

Hope it isn't the provider having thru put problems, that would suck. 

[Duffil]

anyone else having problems with the reply page bringing you back to the message?

[Willy Mammoth]

Yup, I just opened a new page and am on faster than the other which still hasn't opened yet.

[Willy Mammoth]

3rd page same. page 1and 2 still not working. I am guessing this one will hang too.
