rhuurrr 0 #1 July 19, 2001 The DZ.com site seems a little sluggish lately. I have a DSL connection and usually it seems to load up quickly. Other web-sites I have checked seem to load normally.Blues,Jack-------------------------------http://www.oneeyedjackproductions.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PalmettoTiger 1 #5 July 30, 2001 The site has grown tremendously in the past 6 months, the forums especially. As more posts are made, the server must sort through a larger database. Most people here post during the workday (check the number of posts at 8 am, noon, 5 pm, and 9 pm CST and you'll see that most of them are made during working hours), so that's when the server is slowest. More/faster servers cost more money, and as yet DZ.com is solely funded by the generosity of Sangiro (thanks Boss Man!). Blues, squares,PTiger Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sangiro 25 #6 August 4, 2001 Folks - I'm aware of this. I've purhased a dedicated server - the move will be completed when I get back from vacation. The database is not too large for the forums...my current host is simply a drag! On a dedicated server I should be able to optimize my database tables much easier and run the forum under mod_perl which will provide substantial performance gains.Give me a some time - I'll beat it down. The new forum upgrade should bring some performance gains as well.....Safe swoopsSangiro Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
