More site updates

GlitterKill · 18-December-02, 02:57 PM

Continuing with my plan on site upgrades, the pcapex.com domain should point to the new server within 24 hours. This should be a seamless change over as everything is already waiting on the new server and the site database has been served by the new server for the past week or so. Just a heads up in case things don't go as smoothly as I plan them.

Well, for the vast majority of the people out there you are now seeing content from the new server... Things went fairly well I have to say. The server is humming along great so far. For the other 10% of you still hitting the old server, it's just a matter of time before your DNS and proxy servers update.

WOOHOO!!! Another hurdle overcome towards a supa speedy site!

So how are the page load times for you guys now? Things are MUCH quicker for me so far. I still got some more things to do to help, too... "I love it when a plan comes together" You whipper snappers out there probably can't place that quote.

Yea, the young ones never heard it, and us old ones can't remember it

I pity the fool who doesn't know that one. Pages are loading much better. Are the clocks set the same on all the servers? Some posts are coming up on top of earlier posts.

I think that the previous servers clock was set wrong... That should stop as new threads are made. It will only happen with posts made within the time difference of the two servers. You can also see how there are stats listed twice for yesterday and today where some DNS servers didn't update until after midnight by looking at the forum stats:: http://forums.pcapex.com/newstatistik.php .
