Default We moved to a new server (dedicated server) please check few things for us

Hi all,

We have just moved to a new server that is a dedicated server. It does not have many other sites hosted so we are getting the most resources from the server.

I want you to please check few things for us and reply here.

1. How is the forum speed now? Any better than before?

2. Are you facing a problem opening some threads? For me some threads are taking more time than other threads... is it only me or you are also facing this issue?

Thanks
Jani

Nice, Someone got rich:P

regarding loading time, you need to do some optimizations. your main page takes 10.9 seconds to loads on a high speed connection which is way too much. other forums like webhostingtalk take half the time(5.9 seconds).


try compression on your image

i think you have it opposite gary4gar

this forum doesnt take more than a second to load and webhostingtalk took me like 5 seconds to fully load (but i am not surprised from it because it is a big forum with many things on the first page)

sometimes the problem is not on the forum but on your internet connection speed. I live in UK and the speed is very good.

Wrong Gary mate: Pingdom Tools

Maximum of 7 seconds to load all elements and just over 2 seconds to load the actual page as opposed to webhostingtalk which takes just over 8 seconds to load all the elements and 2.4 seconds to load the actual page:

Pingdom Tools

When I checked the report on Pingdom.com this is what I got

WebmastersGossip.com - 6.9 seconds
Webhostingtalk - 6.3 seconds

But when I refreshed the pages this is what I got

WebmastersGossip.com - 7 seconds
Webhostingtalk - 8.8 seconds

I think these values changes because of many things like OUR internet connection, load on server...etc

But I don't see webhostingtalk opening faster than webmastersgossip ever, even when this forum was on shared server it used to open faster than webhostingtalk.

UK FTW!! No seriously, I think its safe to say that this is an improvement on the old server, even if only marginal, plus we load faster than competitors which is a bonus.

When I tested at Pingdom, It gave me 10.5. But now its giving me 7.5. seems previous one was a odd result.

anyways, Internet is a best effort service. hence no guarantees
