Title: [Poll] New server speed
Post by: Delta on April 03, 2015, 11:20:46 pm
Update

Poll has been resetted because of server optimization which should improve page loading times.

Original message

Hey guys,

I would like to know if someone experience faster downloads or faster page loading times after the server move.
( or the opposite )

Simply answer the poll and leave some words if you would like so.


We ( UGX ) want to make sure our site is running great and reliable.

Page loading times is definitely slower(voted). If i had to guess the difference is about 1-2 seconds on average.

If i may ask, where is the new server hosted?

When the server switch first happened it was about the same as before, but now it has gotten worse than before

Just to give you an idea:

That's one of the better results I've gotten. To give you an idea of my average load times:

Ran a speed test on the website using Pingdom: http://tools.pingdom.com/fpt/#!/Z4PXX/ugx-mods.com (http://tools.pingdom.com/fpt/#!/Z4PXX/ugx-mods.com)

I barely ever download anything from the map manager etc so I just voted for slower load times. ^

Well, the manager seems at bit faster and the website too. But, sometimes, it still takes time to open the website. And posting posts takes hell a lot of time.

 :o Weird, mine seems to work fine. Does it happen on any other browsers?

I also have really annoying loading times on Firefox. ( Takes around a "go get a coffee" long )
On chrome it's almost instant.

The difference is not the browser. It's user vs guest.
If I'm a guest it's super fast. As an user... well... I can make a lot of coffee =D

I'll look closer into this. Hopefully this can be addressed and resolved within the next few days.

So far I optimized our HTTP Server and added better caching but that only made it even better for guests^^

Please vote again, thanks.

Second to vote, yay. And another thing, I realized that the manager download speed is not constant, it's varying, or keeps going low and high, but better than before.

edit: just noww, the website is taking forever to load.
