The Site Should Be Loading Much Faster Now! Please Let Us Know

[Presser]

We turned compression on, so now all the long threads that sometimes take forever to load should breeze through, and all the pages you click around to now should load much MUCH faster!

Our New Dedicated Server was fast enough when we got it last year without gzip compression, but apparently weve grown alot since then, so its now on and hopefully all of you have a faster load experience as a result

 

[Presser]

I would like to hear if its loading better for you guys and gals as well, or the same, or worse (who knows) lol, so i gotta ask

 

[The Dude]

Much much much better. It was taking so long to load before that I wouldn't even look on my phone.

 

[SilkQuads]

Yes! Working much faster for me. I thought the issue was on my end.

And Presser, I bet you were pleasantly surprised to find the cause of the slowdown to be due to MC's growing faster than expected this past year. Not a bad problem to have, lol

 

[Presser]

Yes good problem to have for sure

 

[cloudstrife1218]

idk if its my internet or not, but the site is still loading pretty slow for me bro.

 

[yellow snow]

Yes it is loading faster ( very nice, thank you), but it is still slower than someother sites that I think have the exposure MC has.

idk its flying for me, now, and were on the biggest dedicated server available, i think to sped it up more i will have to cloud it, which is what those other sites do which makes their sites blazing fast, problem with this is were the cloudflare routes through and well it scares me if people are able to pull our shit out of the cloud when it pases through other countries. I might check out some other options though, but overall for me its flying blazing fast on desktop, and decent on iphone, but not blazing on phone

 

[gandhisays]

it is loading faster then any of the other sites i am on.

As of yesterday we started using cloud flare!

So when i first posted this message i was just asking if its faster for everyone cause i changed the compression.

However now, I dont have to ask if its faster for everyone, i know its blazing fast. We now run cloud flare, and the entire site is cached in the cloud and the site knows what where you are region wise through knowing your i.p. and it lets you pull the resources your looking for on our site from the closest available cloud, i think i explained that ok

anyhow, it had better be for what we pay extra a month, it costs almost as much per month as our offshore dedicated server so yeah were fast now!

real fast!

I ran a speed test through googles tools, and compared us to 4 other popular bodybuilding forums, who all have databases the size of ours, and well i dont wanna brag, but were fast! lol

thnx! im on a desktop, and honest to GOD the pages load faster then i can blink my eye, however on mobile its not as fast as desktop, but still pretty dam good, but we have to clean up some resources and mobile should super blaze to soon

 

[Presser]

well I just realized there is an added perk to us using cloud flare for all of you, and its that your i.p. is masked lol, and the only thing being logged and even I cant see it, is the cloud i.p that was closest to your region, lol,

fuck, i like looking at whos online and seeing everyones i.p. address and then running your ip addresses, lol, shit, a good portion of my day was spent looking into who is who and where theyre from, as im a nosey fucker, lol, but now all i see is you came from the fucking cloud someplace lol, shit! lol

 

[yellow snow]

It is way faster now!!

 

[Presser]

It is way faster now!!

good to hear,

its amazing what being in "the cloud" will do for yours sites speed, and overall increase in traffic from people posting more, browsing more, and registering more all due to being able to click around fast.

$200 extra a month well spent, now i just have to take donations from all of you, starting at $100 donation you can get a Presser autographed business card mailed right to your house! Plus shipping and handling, so say $150

Whos in?

 

[Presser]

oh and on a serious note, we will be turning another new speed feature on again, so if anyone has any problems, issues logging in or anything at all, please email us or try posting your issue in this thread if possible.

The main feature of this cloud platform we have is turned off due to a kink, but it will speed things up a whole lot more apparently, so as John Kasich Says if you dont have a seatbelt you better get one lmao, lol, what an ass clown

 

[gandhisays]

lighting fast for me.i new right away site was faster when i got on earlier

 

[beachbody]

Pages load Ok, but the latest posts at the top do not load at all. Been like this for 4 days.

I have a Gateway desktop computer with the i-3 processor with 3.3 ghz. It is very fast.
