I'm on an old work computer that I've used for years so I know it's not on my end, but FR seems to be running faster/smoother....Sweet!
Posting always drags for me, so here goes....
I posted a moment ago, and it went through before I could blink.
Wow! Wicked fast!

Wait a sec, now I'm logged in...yup slow as usual :-)
“On the Twelfth day of Blackout, the Freepers gave to me:
Twelve Freepers freeping,
Eleven trolls a-weeping,
Ten admins banning,
Nine Freepettes swooning,
Eight pimps a-spamming,
Seven posts a-locking,
Six mods a-blocking...
FIIIIVE GOLD-EN THREADS...
Four classic posts,
Three stuned beebers,
Two nuked accounts...
and a hamster runs the server faaaaarm!”
Thank You John. Yeah she is ripping this morning. Hope it keeps up.
Hopefully
Posted very quickly. Cool!
The Hamster is on Meth
Yowza! Whiplash! Awesome!
gonna miss the double post.

This is going to help solve my Facebook addiction and I pray it lasts. I’ll be 80 soon and I don’t have 30 or 40 seconds to spare waiting for a upload or download...
Its still fairly slow to respond from my phone, but all else is faster. :)
They had to replace a database server during the last outage, so I’d imagine it’s a lot faster.
Me too.
Embalmed? Is that the funny smell I can not identify? LOL
Now that is funny!
I fit in that category too.
Thanks, John!
Yup, new hardware, installed during the great Free Republic blackout of 2013. Took awhile to get it configured just right for service, besides, hardware needs a good smoke test. Nothing worse than hooking in a new box only to lose data. I’m anxious to see this thing handle peak load. So far since coming into service it hasn’t come near breaking a sweat. The hamsters def on ‘roids with this one. 8 cores of ‘em with brains 68,719,476,736 times the size of a typical Dem. And wheels... 500MB/s sustained read and write! Yowsah!
Unfortunately, it’s a completely foreign Linux distro I’m experimenting with (Ubuntu Server... shame on me.) Seems the version of MySQL that ships is slightly barfing on some of the perfectly fine queries I had crafted, so we’ll have to do some tweakin’ before we’re peakin’.
