Sorry for the delay in an update. The new server is now running a copy of UMSF. As a rough estimate for how well it performs - a page process time on this server is about 0.25s. Typically that figure is 0.05s on the new server. 5x faster. Obviously, it's connectivity that will dictate actual user experience - but it's nice to know that the server itself is very happily processing things, and much faster than we have now. It's undergoing testing by the admin team as I speak.
The actual switch over will be a 24-36 hour period at a maximum - hopefully next weekend. (weekends are quietest at UMSF...you clearly spend all day here instead of doing your jobs. I know I do) Doug |

Sometimes I can't believe that you have time for a job, Doug...

When I get stressed out working on a movie soundtrack, I like to relax by poking around the threads here. I don't even have to leave my chair! Of course, I have to work weekends when I'm on a deadline, so I'm here at all hours, hehe. If I'm absent, it's because I'm not working and gone fishin'. |

OT...but sounds like a great job, Brellis. Setting your own hours, no clock to punch, I assume no commuting required...aaahh!!!

QUOTE (Stu @ Feb 28 2008, 05:31 PM) Two years? Hmmm... that's just about long enough to ensure UMSF is still going by the time Oppy reaches the edge of Valles Marineris... Well, it's about as likely as her reaching Ithaca! Seriously tho, that's excellent news. Thanks to everyone working away behind the scenes on this. I'll hold you to what you said about Ithaca, Stu! |
