Is this forum on a slow server or is it just me? I got a good cable connection, but this site is sooooo slow for me. I bet I am getting a bad hop to it. Anyone else experiencing the same problem?

 

YIPEEEEEE! That means its not my computer. I've been teed off for the last hour. Thought it might have been my telephone line. Thank you.

 

Yep as slow as dial up... for a couple days now. Must be that new virus

 

Yes, it is slow.

It is VERY slow...damn it!!

 

Things aren't what they used to be. I thought this new server was supposed to improve things. Not bitchin' just perplexed and impatient.

 

I blame the other car club on this server - supraforum.com.

They've recently upgraded the server because of high cpu utilization (not an overtaxed T1 to whoever's house). Probably just going through growing pains of changing a PRODUCTION SERVER and not having a fallback one while they're doing it.

You try spinning & juggling plates at the same time

 

The new server is not up yet. It is configured and ready to go, but BOOSTD7 needs to get off his lazy *** and hook it up.

It have been real slow the last couple of days. Be patient, this new server will put an end to this lag.

Where's that paypal logo? Mabey if we "passed the plate around" BOOSTD 7 would get some motivation

 

yeah, and sometimes i cant even get the site, it says there is no such site. this happen to anyone else??

 

yes it is slow. hopefully it gets up to speed soon.

 

Hell yeah...I have problems getting on sometimes, and when I do it's slooow. Granted I have a piece of crap computer, but still. Heres hoping it gets better

 

Jason's tightwad *** needs to pay me about $5000 so I can take a month off work and get all the **** done that needs to be done

Trust me guys, when the new server goes live, you'll notice a night and day difference.

 

Too bad your not in GA. I'd be overthere helpin ya

 

yah i got a bellsouth dsl line and this forum is slower than wheni had dial up. hey however is in charge, take donations again like yall did along time ago. remeber. the way i see it, 8,000 members, at least half of us donate a dollar or 5, that should be plenty of money. yah if you were in ga i would be there now also.

 

what is the change in the server?
you getting a new backbone?
most of its problem has to do with being run an winblows want to be server.


the TeamFc3s.org server is fast

 

Mr. Gates, please send the MS Police to 87GTR's house

 

Actually, it's been shown time and time again that IIS 5 on a Win2K machine can serve static pages faster than Apache 1.3 on a Linux 2.4 kernel machine. Win2K is a great OS, it's done an excellent job for us for the last 2 years.

That being said, the new box is Linux 2.4.7 kernel with Apache 1.3.22 Of course having dual cpu, twice as much ram, SCSI RAID instead of IDE hard drives, won't hurt.

Trust me, it'll be MUCH faster. Right now I just recompiled and installed PHP 4.1 and Apache 1.3.22 on the new server. It's about 95% done!

 

Yes!!!!! on off my christmas presents being answered:p

 

who said anything about a linux kernel. BSD run generated pages faster than linux does.
BSD is what the Convex/HP super comptuers run on.

also these pages are not static at lease 95% of this site runs dynamic.

adding dual proceeser is a big help, as I can sure understand that.
as one of my customer during the halloween season we had to use
3 dual P3 1000, 2gig ram round robin web server
1 dual p3 1000, 2gig ram mysql server.

just to keep up with the traffic now they are back down to using 1 server again to hold their website and DB.


also make sure you install php as mod_php for apache it will run faster than just a compiled ver of php.

 

Win2K suxs.
