Thumbs down Forum being slow?
Hi All,

Wow, new forum design looks cool! Well done!

But it feels that it has become slower. I mean, I get the top bar [Showing Devshed logo and various links to forums] and then literally wait for rest of the things to load.

Is it that my internet connection is playing on me or everybody is facing the same problem??

JD

Theres quite a bit of activity today on the forums. There is over 300 users online right now. There is a slight slowdown, but I think it is from the traffic..

The forums do tend to slow down a tad when we hit the 300+ mark, which is why we are preparing to move to much beefier servers, but the eta for that is still about 6 weeks away.

Ok, was going to warn about newer versions having Apache 2 on them, but your safe with that version.

Would still recommend FreeBSD though.

I'm using redhat 8.0 in a production server, running apache 1.3.27, mod_perl 1.27, and PHP 4.something (custom installs all). No problems whatsoever, and it includes multithreaded perl 5.8.0.

It's MUCH easier to do this, I think, if you don't install apache during the OS install. . .

This is going to betray my low-end nature, but what's so great about Xeon chips? Most of my production servers now run Athlons and some PIIs and PIIIs and I have nary a complaint.

I'd like to point out that right now, DevShed and DevShed forums are running on:

1 non-dedicated box
(it runs other sites that are owned by us, the currently nameless ex-owners of DevShed.com) with
Dual Xeon 1.8 GHz processors (with HyperThreading, of course)
2 GB RAM
IDE RAID 5 of 4 x 60 GB drives

So this is definitely an improvement.
