i just wanted to say, thank you for doing what you can. This site is towards the top of my favorites list and just wanted to let you know we really do care and appreciate the hard work. . . now get back to work and fix our search button

 

Thanks, it's a work in progress to do this type of tuning. Unfortunately there is no way for me to generate real world usage on a seperate db so I have to go through the trial and error and work it out in real time.

Unfortunately I have a day job too!

 

You must be done, now... cuz this site is refreshing very nicely... thank you

 

Just got the message again 5 mins. ago.

 

i just got a lil bit of a problem with this again.. just now

 

Noooobs Searching again!..lol

 

hehe soon as Kyle bumps us up to 4G on the server I'm going to be caching a lot more, if it continues though we might have to move the search to a slave server, which means we'll have to add a server. This will take a bit to order/get/configure everything though

 

I've received that msg. randomly during just this past week.

Last couple of weeks I noticed if you tried to search for anything complex or multi-term, search failed altogether for me, so I could only search for one or two words at a time.

Seeems to be working much better now and faster.

 

yeah the site does move fast but every now and then those message will pop up

but when they dont the site moves fast

 

Yah, I've done a TON of tuning here recently but the searches are going to take a bit more time. I know the site busy is annoying but if I don't stop that then we spawn a bunch of apache processes and it spirals performance down the drain. I should be able to remove it when we hit the 4G boost today sometime.

server is now up to 6G of memory, caching and key buffers increased and memory should help. Let's see how she flies now.

 

Don't know if it's b/c of the early Sat morning or the new RAM, but the site is flying for me
