Yesterday rather. It's already 2:10 AM. I've been watching the posts and everything seems to be moving very slowly.

1) I guess this goes for all forums then, not only PHP, so better post this in the Lounge (Jcaputo already said they were working on a hardware update)

2) If your signature would be smaller then 200kB maybe the server wouldn't have that much load in the first place

The dancing baby sig is actually what is slowing things down across DevShed.com

We are currently preparing for some major hardware upgrades but they wont be online for another 60 days.

3 steps to happy DS browsing:
1. Right click on PhillyPino's sig image

2. Select 'block images from this server'

3. Email Mozilla team, thanking them for such a kick-arse feature.

Yes it is such a nice feature isn't it

I would have to agree, that sig is single handedly slowing things down

How about some size/memory restrictions on sig images? I usually don't care, but that thing's pretty gaudy.

I don't mean slow bandwidth, in fact it's not slow. I meant slow in a sense that few people are posting in the PHP forums (that is why I specifically said PHP) because normally I will only be out for a few minutes and many posts are up.

Oh and the bandwidth (I removed the dancing baby ), what JCaputo said was over exaggeration: Slowing things down across Devshed.com? You mean a big percentage of total bandwidth consumed by Devshed comes from by sig, come on dude, get real. Anyways, I agree with a little bit eye straining, so it's gone now

For this site it doesn't matter I guess since it's indeed hosted somewhere else... but for all people with slow connections it IS a bit big I think (100Mbit network here so no problem for me though )... Besides being big in filesize it's also a bit big in resolution i guess taking up some space.. but hey, it's YOUR sig so you decide (I was just teasing you in my first post )

Regards
