Is this site FASTER? (Round 1)

[Rob]

AF now has its own webserver - have you noticed an improvement in speed?

We still have 2 more rounds of "improvements":

1. Upgrading the database server
2. Optimizing vBulletin with a cache system

For me anyways, AF has been a TON faster today and Phandroid has been a little faster too. I'm excited to see how quick they'll be after a few more improvements.

Let us know!

It is terribly slow for me! It seems slower than before the change..

 

[kopkiwi]

Seems a dam site faster to me.

Was going frustratingly slow for a good few days for me.

 

[Rob]

Part 2 is now completed. Not sure what you're dealing with Trident but AF and Phan should be much, much faster and facing far fewer db and site not loading problems.

Keep the reports coming in.

 

[Jceinc]

Faster than it was before but still too slow imo

And I still can't access Phandroid.. which I'm hoping Phases has told you about. Any thoughts Rob?

I have told him, yeah, but I'm not sure there is much we can do about it. Hopefully our host can investigate it, but I think we're unfairly being blocked by a number of ISPs due to our email problem.

The site as a whole was blocked?

Came home to find that Android Forums is now faster than ever and guess what? I can get on Phandroid again! Yess!

 

[Caddyman]

seems pretty darn snappy to me...

 

[IOWA]

Good stuff.

 

[Kelmar]

No problems anymore (at least so far)!

 

[IOWA]

Experienced a little lag again, but no shutdowns. A hiccup here and there(alot less though!)

 

[bluenova]

Much faster for me in Western Europe.

phandroid is down for me. 8.39am central

Works for me..

Performance has increased. Am curious to see how the forums react under greater strain. Thanks for all of your hard work!

Hi all - for what it's worth, the servers seemed to be performing adequately yesterday but this morning, I'm seeing lots of crazy time-outs, including right now, as I've been trying to post this feedback for about 10 minutes now. G'luck finding the gremlins!

I can second this.

 

[Caddyman]

super slow right now...

 

[Phases]

This morning's issue SHOULD clear up momentarily..

It's been very very slow for me over the last few days. To load this page - from the time I clicked on the thread on the "new posts" page to the time it was fully loaded - took 40.813 seconds (according to Extended Taskbar in Firefox).

 

[Trident]

Fixed

Bam! 1.528 seconds to load this page.

Thanks!
