Title: New Server - Better Site Performance Hopefully...
Post by: Brett on May 21, 2012, 10:13:44 PM
Hey All,

Back on the 18th of May the forum was migrated to a new server by our host provider. Now this did cause some little issues and about 3hrs of downtime, but other wise went through without a hitch.

The forum is now on one of our hosts newest and highest performance servers with the maximum amount of available resources.  So at a guess we should see an improvement in the forum performance.

The reason we were migrated to a new server was the old one was running out of room and at 24GB Myswag was the largest user.

3hrs of downtime, I must have been sleeping :)

I haven't received the usual connection error for a few days...

Wish our new work fibre optic connections (installed last week) between our 4 main centres worked as quick.  Methinks they still having teething problems. >:( >:(
