Forum Speed

[Sal-XK]

I've got Verizon FIOS, which has some nominally decent speed for a home setup -

Nonetheless, this is the slowest site that I visit more than once a day.

This is a test of his band width not our forum speed. I'm pretty jealous of that up load speed though that's jus sick. I'm pretty stoked that we grew enough to slow the server down

Got an A- which actually surprised me it was that good.

I'm not sure if this is a joke or not.. That is a rating of his internet service based on comparison to other ISP's and their speeds.

Yep. This.

Yep. This.

Do you high tier FIOS or is that a speedtest from work?

[Sal-XK]

this site was running great today just slowed down at night. Not my best numbers but still pretty good.

I've never had a problem with speed on this website... at all. I've had problems with the other site loading up though. I like to move quickly and hit the 'END' button as soon as a page loads... some times pages with pics keep bumping the view location up - pushing me further and further from the bottom.. until they all load. Actually irks the crap out of me. Never had that issue here though.

That's from home - I think they have a higher tier than this, still, although Lord knows I have everything BUT the Playboy Channel, and have the bundle package (phone/internet/cable).

So is there any way to improve the speed? Someone said it was a shared server.
I use godaddy to host my sites, is that the same thing?
