Site migration and upgrade completed.

[elchorizo]

If you are seeing this message you are on the new server. We have moved to a different data center and have upgraded the hardware as the older hardware was having a hard time keeping up. You may notice some slowdowns currently as we have to rebuild the entire search index which is a resource intensive process.

I believe the search rebuild will be done in about 2 more hours. So search, recent posts, etc. may not be 100% at this time.

If you notice something unrelated to search being broken please post in here.

In addition to the new hardware we have changed the encryption setup to be faster and more secure. We will have some additional tweaks on that in the next day or two as well as guest page caching which should save some server resources as well.

Thank you for your patience.

Oh so that’s what was going on,

Well, it seems to have fixed the issue of trying to paste in a linked pic that used to send it to the top of the post.

I can't find ANY of the threads or posts I've made in the last 24 hours.

Poof, gone

From the site administrator

Actually digging into this and it looks like I imported a database from May 8th instead of May 10th, so there might be some lost content. My apologies.

That explains it

That explains it

I can only assume the site administrator is doing the best he can, but he could at least put up a warning before things go down.

I imagine we aren't going to see them until the backup is migrated over. I don't see mine from today either.

Here, this should hold you over. Borrow Bidens drule bib if necessary

Should give a half hour warning before shutting down - that triggered my Biden derangement syndrome.

Alright, that's two.

Thanks, elchorizo.

 

[Remodeling Maidiac]

Notifications seem to be working properly now. Let's try posting a pic from mobile and see if that's still a clusterfuck...

Ehh, still sucks but that may be partly me as I have my screen blow up to avoid glasses

I love that image, I made that in like, 2002. There is an animated gif version that I made as well.

 

[elchorizo]

We have just enabled guest page caching. It should not affect any logged in members. If you notice anything wonky please post in here.

 

[elchorizo]

Has anyone noticed an improvement in site speed since the migration?
