Thinking of making the jump to 4.0? I've noticed a lot of boards are lately.

Depends on how much porn I'm downloading, but that isn't really your fault.

Most of the time fine, sometimes unreachable but pretty rare these days. I notice it lags when editing a post, unless I go to GO ADVANCED. Otherwise it just sits there, it does this in IE, Firefox and Chrome - strange.

the ads seem to make it hang a bit before it loads at the very first but it is not more than a few seconds. nothing to complain about at all.

Though LW has a good point too.. .maybe it's that world pharma sponsor!

thanks for your feedback, I will probably get started on a new server, it will take a couple of weeks to get it set-up and move everything.

I just updated the forum software to the latest release: vB 3.8.5 (just came out today).
The new server is up and running, I will work on moving everything over the next week or two.

I noticed the Nav bar on the side hangs for about 10 seconds at times right in the center then it shifts left and the rest starts stacking up in it's place...
Coarse edged youth, the irish pendants string from their smiles
not yet plucked as to slacken the seams
and drag down the features of age,
no folds or creases from unkempt wear
eyes of tranquilty, crystalline-beads
no sign of despair in their hair, nor their hearts
but oh they have yet to be experienced and that makes aging so very worth it...ML circa2012

The new server is ready, all websites have been moved except this forum, I always move the forums last because the database is huge and it takes a long time. I plan to move the forums sometime this week, have not decided when yet.

Good luck! Make sure your backups are recent and redundant!

not sure, it's been about 4-5 years since I migrated to a new server, but I would guess a few hours. Originally Posted by FMJ

Good luck! Make sure your backups are recent and redundant!
of course, the db's are backed up every night, and all sites get backed up to a separate harddrive every night.
the same thing will be true on the new server however it is also running RAID1 (two redundant 300gb SCSI hardrives).

That's awesome dude. Do you IT background in your past, or did you just teach yourself most of what you needed to know about server administration? Originally Posted by Robert

Yes, 14 years of IT experience, mostly network admin, my last job I was a consultant, I "retired" about a year ago and now all I do is run IronMagazine and IronMagLabs full-time...and I am much happier. Originally Posted by KelJu

Gotcha. While you were swapping your server, I was swapping a hospital server about 45minutes from New Orleans. This was the easiest swap I have done yet. I am not work out from 30 hours of no sleep, so I'm thinking about riding in to New Orleans for St Patty's Day. Originally Posted by Robert

we were on the old server for almost 5 years, it was getting maxed out in several ways, e.g. CPU and disk space, it was just time to upgrade to a new one. Originally Posted by KelJu

If it was maxed out, you did a good job getting the very last out of it. I never thought the site was slow. Nice job on being proactive rather than letting it become a problem before upgrading.

5 year old technology may as well have been a 486 in comparison! Originally Posted by Robert
