I feel the need, the need, for speed!!!!
« on: October 01, 2018, 06:07:33 PM »
Forum is now motoring!  :dance:  :haironfire

Took longer than I wanted to get here, but I deliberately did it the way which ensured nothing was lost along the way.

And I think it was worth the wait.  :icon_mrgreen:

I was getting a little concerned at how long it was taking, but it was more than worth the wait. Much speedier loading time. :Tup3a:

Whoot! So glad you chose the "do it right" route instead of the "do it fast because they're all foaming at the mouth" route. It's super speedy and it looks like not a thing was lost!

Thank you and congrats!

Wonderful. I was getting dial-up speeds (haven't had wifi that long, so I know), and it was discouraging.

You mean you could have done it faster, but you made me work for longer because there was nowhere else to go?   Shame on you :D

Not really.

Getting my full site off the previous host proved impossible. I still dont have a full backup from them I can use.

So I uploaded just the forum and reinstalled it from scratch.

The domain shift took a lot longer than I expected, mainly because I only found out this morning how to speed it up, and still dont know exactly where to find it.

Learning experience.  :HB

Ah, that explains it.  I had wondered why it was taking so long.

Silly me. I thought the slow speed was because every click of mine had to go to Australia and back. I'm glad someone has some technical know-how.

The worst part was earlier today, when I knew it was up for the US, but I still couldn't access the domain myself.

Australia is not that bad.  grint

It does have its moments though.

Actually, the new host and the old host are not all that far from each other in geographical terms. But the new one is using state of the art computers. And we share a server with a very few others.

You've gone above and beyond.  I hope it all works out well.   :grouphug:  I might step out for a while since I really need to refocus on my writing.  But I'm glad it's here and I know you're put a lot of time, attention, and work in on the forum.  It's not something everyone could do.  Thanks.

Yes, the difference in performance is immediately noticeable. This was definitely worth the wait.

It's too fast and too hard to keep up with all the activity.  I might have to go elsewhere for a slower pace.   :hehe
