Faster Site? I hope so

Last night we finally shut the server down and got to the maintenance I discussed this week.  The server is now running with another 2 gigs of beefy RAM.  It should, in theory, be running a lot faster so I hope it's noticeable to you all.  For me, Im seeing at least 2 seconds cut of the page generation for the forums which is much better then I expected.  Thanks again for your patience and hopefully with latest upgrade will be enough to hold off the masses for another couple months or so.

Just curious what the next step is when you need to do more upgrading?

@TANK The next step would basically be a cluster at this point. We are already running on a dedicated server at over 3.0Ghz dual core and 5gigs of Ram.

It definetly seems to run faster. But ther also seems to be less people on in the summertime.

It seems much faster. I take back all the curses from last night when I couldn't get on. :)
