Numerous Performance Upgrades Released

Posted by Richard White Wed, 03 Oct 2007 08:51:00 GMT

Over my frantic and sometimes shrill protests, a schooner full of performance issues docked with the server Monday morning. Not even a peace offering of copious amounts of RAM would satiate these foul bytes and they’ve since held the whole place hostage with their insanely slow response times.

(I’ll never be able to write for ErrTheBlog /sob)

I’ve did a boatload of performance optimizations over the last two days that I just loaded up on the server which should hopefully put and end to the suffering.

I’ve testing this release quite a bit, but as with anything that includes radical backend changes and a compressed time frame there exists a certain amount of risk. That said, if you notice anything odd about how SlimTimer is working please email me straight away.

    Thanks for keeping on top of things!

    Also, let us know when we can start paying you for freemium features. And if it is going to be a while, perhaps you want to consider a small donation button that will let us feel like we are doing our part to keep the boat afloat.

    Interesting graph, even though I did not understand what the boat is doing :)..

    Thanks, ed

    That’s thar schooner stuck, I think. (One eye covered with patch)

    The boat looks weird for me also :) What Nick said possibly true (without covering eyes at all)

    Thanks, Brian
