Regarding Speed issues on OFPEC.

[hubba]

Some of you have reported that the site is very slow and you do not get any bandwidth. This is not a server issue but rather a ISP issue. It seems our ISP have some routing issues from certain areas (not all) and you may experience bad results against the OFPEC server even though you get good results on other sites. This is unfortunately one of the quirks of the Internet, speed is never constant and unless our ISP remakes a major part of the swedish backbone, it will not get much better.

Even though the server is coping well with the actual workload its getting, we are constantly trimming and improving on the server. In a short while we will also set up the secondary database server (which will be 100% dedicated for only database issues) which should further speed up the transactions.

Diskwise we're not even close to filling up the drive. Last count we had some 45 gigs to spare.

I will keep you all posted on the progress of the server side.

You keep quiet you lightweight alcoholic.

After the success of the first Meet, and the unknown existence of the second Meet (At which, Messiah threw up approximately 15 times.... In the toilet, in the taxi, out of the taxi, on the car driving alongside the taxi, on the street, up the lampost... You get the idea..)

Good to see you again buddy!
