only 250,000 more files to go ;-)

if the logo is up side down - you are on the new server.

Security cert. coming up invalid on the new server when using latest Chrome build.

Ya, it will throw an error since it has switched.

Does the logo being upside down mean the same thing as a flag upside down - you are in distress Brett?

some of the stats for the week/month will be goofy until I get the cron jobs to fire with the right log files uploaded.

No it means the servers are in Australia.

A quick reminder to clear your cache and all should be well.

Seems very smooth now. I guess the switch happend?

Yep - all running on new iron.
dual E5-2620's @ 2.40g cpus, 32g ram - 500gb ssd - 2 tb backup

is it my bias - or is this faster than it has ever been?

It's much faster, Brett.

might be some bumps in the road here as I fix some issues that can only be fixed live.

It is much faster all around, noticeably faster :)

Pretty, pret-ty, pret-tyyyy fast.

Logo is back to normal :) Website is working fast.

Logo is back to normal

Has anyone noticed the RSS feeds links are currently wrong - e.g. [webmasterworld.comhttps...]

thanks - will check on it.

Suppose it is something with me and not the new server, but why would the "Mark forums read" not work?
It is like that on several browsers and machines, it just does not mark my threads as read at all...

I did notice that my message count did not update (shy about 20 but who's counting?), but I will say that over the last week the speed has come and I'm loving it!

Thanks, Brett.

Every post at WW should be signed that way.

"Mark forums read" not work?

Yup, it's a known issue. Really annoying, especially on mobile where you don't have the large comprehensive view to see what you've responded to.

While it's being worked on, the "Mark Forums Read" issue can be dealt with by resetting the WWF cookie which can be done with this resetter link: [webmasterworld.com...]

HTH

Yes thanks not2easy, and I do that but it is still a PITA since when there are a dozen updated threads, some in the same forums, it's a challenge to keep track of them especially on mobile.

That link clears all the markers at once. Not very helpful going through threads one by one without paper & pen.

I am enjoying the faster speed. This was a much needed upgrade. Thanks for the hard work Brett.

Spilled coffee on them already? Board was down for quite a while.

apparently there was a hardware failure.

SSD drive was replaced...

With another SSD? Or spinning rust?

SSD has improved quite a bit, but I still don't trust it for mission critical.... Just asking.

Mission-critical applications probably shouldn't run on a single drive, SSD or otherwise ;-)

Dedicated servers, I don't miss 'm.

No RAID ?
