the new site is about 10 times fasterthen this site
but after doing some performance tests and talking it over with thier team i was told that that 10 times faster was incredibly slow for how it should perform
so.. moving on to a even faster...by far.. much improved server today (might take over 24 hours to transfer over)
the result should be that most people will have a load time under 1 second
in addition we got double the ram..free this means we can double the video and file size upload limites to 2.44 gigs about
this means you can upload a couple hour long full fd video
theres 1 downside its a self managed server after the 1st months migration setup and configureation
now i know a bit but im no linux expert no server admin
so we may need a member to step up and volunteer to be 'on call'
thier services should rarely be needed but if theres ever a server emergency or some config changes or mods needing to be installed then youd be called up (only emergencies wouldnt be "at your leisure" )
anyways
when the new site goes live ..hopefully in the next week maybe 2 it will be lightening fast
as its set up now.. page loads are 2-5 seconds
but the sites builtin performance rating that measures how it should perform rated it a 40 out of a possible 1000..pretty bad
the new servers expected to be at an estimated 940
ill let u know once its upgraded
so u can guess just how much faster that will be
