Forum Performance

Richard · #1 January 25th, 2005, 05:34 PM

Guys,

I finally convinced the powers that be to switch to a unix host for most of our hosting services. Mysql and php ran like a dog under windows, and I am seeing pretty good performance myself personally compared to the old forum.

I would like to take a quick poll of everyone else's experience.

Also please note that I have some other plans now that we are on the unix host to further speed things up.

Thanks.

Unix rocks richard. If it is good enough for me to use in GM to run quality systems then it has to be good for a forum...

Well since my professional background is as a Unix Systems Admin I would have to agree

.

But I'm biased....

Much better than before - it's taking considerably less time for My Daily View of the Forums to load; about 1/3 the previous time.

I was wondering why it was faster,.. I has a new 'improved' engine.

Keep up the fantastic work Richard.

Cheers!
