SNOWEST: One way to increase the speed of SnoWest!

[shortstop20]

Christopher,

You've been working for Harris now for what, a couple months? I think that's adequate time to solve the problems that we are having. I know you have these big aspirations for SW, and that's fine, but eventually you've got to realize that the forum obviously can't handle it right now. Put the fancy stuff on the backburner and work on the most important thing, SPEED!

I told everyone to lay off when they were all giving you crap at first but to be honest I'm losing my patience as well.

I don't think you understand what this forum means to some of us. You've been here for a short time, many members have been here for 5-10 years and developed friendships with people through the forum, group rides, etc. SnoWest is kinda like a big family, albeit a dysfunctional one.

I beg you to reconsider your priorities so that the best sledding forum on the Web doesn't go down the dumpster, because to be honest, it's headed that way right now. Who would know better than the people that have been here for many years? Member count isn't everything.

I must be lucky, I havn't noticed it being slow at all.....takes 3-5 seconds to load any page. Is that slow?

Mine is not slow either...

That's good if your internet download speed is less than 1 MB.

SW is the slowest sight that I visit.

You can still download firefox. Had it on my Mac for ages... smokes safari... and in the past safari has had security issues... if you use a credit card or any personal info.... think about changing to something better. Well I guess I shouldn't say that I haven't checked out safari security lately, maybe it's changed.

Even after we upgrade all the hardware, Firefox should outperform Internet Explorer, but we will be able to do a few things to customize the outbound data to work better with Interent Explorer as well.
