After you guys literally made the server come to a crawl on the first two Sundays of this month, Quiky decided it was time for an upgrade.

The old box was a single Xeon 3.0GHz with 4GB of RAM on Windows 2003. Once we got past about the 600 users on the forums and probably tons more on the main site, things would start breaking as some of you may noticed earlier this month.

Well, this should happen no longer (hopefully, lol) due to our new server, named “Titan”, which should be something like 10x as fast. It’s rocking 4 dual-core AMD Opteron 8220 processors (yes, that’s 8 cores total) with 16GB of RAM on Ubuntu (yay, no more Windows!).

Simply put, it’s badass. Enjoy the new, lightning quick page serve times. :)
