I understand, we aren't judged by our words, but by our service.
We intend to upgrade the current "weakest link in the chain" tomorrow, which we hope will improve performance.

Please still answer the question of why you can run sites larger than Rennlist, yest still claim it's the size of Rennlist that causes the problems?

Matt, I think the problem was the 486 server they used for RL. The good stuff was used for the 'vette and harley forums
ltc lent them a Bose processor left over from his Cayenne and that seems to work better except for the occasional random "!" icon...

Typically those requirements don't change a great deal, and we build in scope for expansion.
As you can see below, the number of visitors to Rennlist has close to doubled in the last 6 months, something our initial hardware allocations were not scaled for.

So the board is even worse now...if that was even possible. I was trying to reply to PM's about items I have for sale and it took several hours before I could finally send them without them trying to time-out or error.
It just seems like each fix makes things worse at this point!

I will make sure we sort it out for you!
Thanks!
- Take a screenshot of the issue
- Do a traceroute (if you know how!)
- e-mail it to me!

Daniel,
You can check out http://www.quantcast.com/rennlist.com#traffic
to get a snapshot of the last six months or so. Note the sharp drop in traffic in November when we suffered the DoS attack. Note too the increase in traffic over time. I'm not sure this trend will continue, but visits are up rather nicely in spite of what some people seem to think.

Daniel,
I do not have access to any traffic information prior to IB hosting Rennlist (which occurred approx 7/1/08)
Here is as far back as our reporting goes, you will note the "dips" due to site performance issues (particularly the past week), but the site has seen around a 50% increase in the past 6months (and as you can see, this was inconsistent with previous trends, hence our inability to "plan for growth" appropriately), however when issues were identified with performance more recently we made our best efforts to acquire and install the necessary hardware to support the increase in as timely manner as possible, feedback since the application of this greater capacity hardware seems to indicate this has rectified the concerns.
There have been some performance issues that have still been present outside of our hardware capabilities as we are still under a DDOS attack and we are working a balance of managing the incoming traffic to ensure that no users are blocked, but "malicious" traffic is restricted.
Hopefully you have seen improvements over the past couple of days in that regard.
Best regards,
Adrian
