Milan Mania is changing servers--please read

Hopefully you've all read Rezag's announcement that he posted a couple days ago. He is planning to start the move today; if that changes he'll let us know.

PLEASE BE AWARE.....the actual move could take up to 24 hours or longer. All Rez can tell us is that from past experience it does take a while with a forum of this size. After that, it make take a while for YOUR ISP to detect the change. It's called DNS propagation and it is the amount of time it takes your internet provider to 'see' the site in its new place. THERE IS NOTHING WE CAN DO ABOUT SOMETHING HAPPENING AT YOUR END OF THINGS. You need to be patient about this.

The move is to a much less expensive server, and it is a move to keep the site open and online. Economics are forcing this move, so we will have to accept the new server's performance and just deal with it. Rez had put alot of time into selecting one he feels will suit our needs.

Thanks for the accolades, but I really haven't done much but encourage Rez--he's our tech guy and does all the dirty work when it comes to miving the forums and stuff. Seems like this server is good, maybe even faster than the old one. I'm impressed so far with our switch!

Will something like this happen again when the new website design is completed for Milan Mania?

I appreciate all the good work that happens behind the scenes. The dedication of the people is exemplary.

However, the new server is NOT faster.

I have found it to be as fast or just as fast, but maybe people are finding it varies for them. No matter, we had to make this switch, we've already explained that. Since only a few people are helping to pay to keep this site online, we had to find the less expensive server to move to.

Yes, I'm aware that there are a few generous souls who are keeping this site up and running.

I just found it to be quite a bit slower. Of course, it is not painfully slow by any means.

With the new set up (ie not using a dedicated server anymore) a performance hit is possible, maybe even expected. However, if you or anybody notice errors or extremely slow load times please let me know the time it happened and I'll check the server logs to see if there is something going on.

I have found high loads on the server, doesn't look too bad at first look but I'll try to find out why.

Here's a sample of server info

15:40:10 up 38 days, 22:47, 0 users, load average: 2.58, 1.28, 1.06
15:50:07 up 38 days, 22:57, 0 users, load average: 1.81, 1.99, 1.61

mysql 24400 0.4 15.8 144628 52068 ? Sl Nov21 217:11 \_ /usr/libexe c/mysqld --defaults-file=/etc/my.cnf --basedir=/usr --datadir=/var/lib/mysql --u ser=mysql --pid-file=/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.pid -- skip-locking --socket=/var/lib

The 2.58 and 15.8 are on the high side.
