Do you notice any difference?

[Marc]

For those of you who were complaining about how slow the site was have you noticed any difference in the past few day?

We gained close to 700 new members in the past two months and noticed the server was having issues keeping up in the peak hours. I contacted the service provider and they checked to see what was happening and we were pretty much chewing up all the ram and then some during peak time.

I've gone and upgraded the server processor and quadrupled the ram. Remember the saying?

" How fast can you make this thing go? Well that depends, how much money do you have?"

Well the server operating cost just went up by about another $1200.00 per year so hopefully we see the results.

Let me know if you see a difference.

Thanks,

Marc.

There were times I could not open the next page or a thread and had to back and retry 2-4 times. Thank you Marc.

I too have noticed a larger number of members & guest on HBC.

Maybe its time you start thinking of hats/stickers/silent auction/ect to rai$e some funds to help cover your cost$ to run this $ite.
