    Ok, I know this forum gets a S.hit load of people!

    But! Is there anyway, at all we can get this forum to load faster? Like, get it on a double xeon server box, or something? Cause, it seems like this forum is on a p3, or p4... and its loading pretty slow.

    Thanks again
    - Brian

    It may seem slow but that is only due to the amount of ppl on the forums, just think...at peak times there can be in excess of 350 ppl on these forums easily, its a lot for any server to handle....even a dual xeon.

    its fine for me...
    My internet stats are:
    Your download speed : 1477105 bps, or 1442 kbps.
    A 180.3 KB/sec transfer rate.
    Your upload speed : 509943 bps, or 497 kbps.

    not the best but not bad either...

    Lol, trying to sell something?


    Anyways, it is a porblem when theres 200 + members on at a time, and I would really appriciate it is llamaman trys to get something done to fix it. Cause, I limit my time here when it does not load. Its just stupid (no offense) to take 5 minutes to load 1 post with 3 replys on it.

    It's a bit slow for me in the morning (EST) but by noon and later, everything is smooth. It loads about as fast as Google. And Google is probably the simplest site I've ever seen. :)
