How is the performance of the new web server compared to the old site?

David,
It is fairly similar right now, but I am noticing a slight lag when I click on a thread. The old forum was near instantaneous; there is a small delay now. Also, I noticed when I posted that I waited a bit longer than usual to be taken back to my post.
It’s very close to the forum of old, but just a tad slower.

ejant... I will be putting everything back to the way it was. The forum discussions was my first concern.

I`m sure time of day will determine speed. However I think it is moving along a bit faster. Hard to tell when milleseconds are involved.

What laynlow said.
P.S. I`m really glad Autopia is back. :bounce

It seems like it is right about the same for me also.
I am not experiencing some lag like others have.

everything seems to just dandy, except, that whenb viewing a picture, it take a while to download. and posting takes a tad slower. I think it is great for now!

You mentioned the menus... I am assuming the "forum" button(top left corner) will return?:nixweiss
Anyway, it works great. I don`t notice much of a difference.:xyxthumbs

The search function seems to be faster now. Before when I was searching it seemed to take much longer to return the results than it does now.

I second that. Search function is way faster now.
However, the Autopia email and webpage functions are working right. They seem to be having a problem handling anything other than plain text. Can`t upload html or graphics files (error message says it can`t create the html file), and the email won`t send the contents of an HTML based email.

I just voted for "About the same" and that`s how it`s acting for me on this network at work. I could try from home later tonight and see whether it`s faster or not too. But as far as the network here at work is concerned, Autopia is running about as fast, if not slightly faster than its old self.
On a side note, I think we all owe David a big thank you. I work more on the programming side of things in the tech world, but I am in constant contact with networking and the like. I could not imagine doing all of this myself. I personally am fully impressed with David`s dedication and hard work. Good job David! Too bad the current files were lost, but I think we all can make some allowances. Keep up the good work, man! Can`t wait to see the new place :)
Thanks David! :xyxthumbs :bow
PS: Any bugs I find will be noted here:
1) "Home" button on top does not return you to the page with the "Currently Active Threads" window along with the JPGs of people`s detailing on the top left. I`m sure you all know the page I`m talking about.
2) The time given at the bottom of every thread is WAY off. It says GMT -5 hours is 5:49am. When in reality the time for GMT -5 hours at the moment is 8:55 am.
3) To be found.
