Several asked about donating. While I don't need any contributions for our usual fees, I know the act of giving is a satisfying act. The server move cost $375 in fees for a sysadmin to do the setup for us. If you want to contribute to that, here is a link. If not, no worries. Just enjoy. ✌️ https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=7TTY93GTNHQ9Y&source=url

while I usually drag my feet doing this, I honestly didn’t think the season would happen so I avoided doing unnecessary work.

New stats: CentOS 6 -> CentOS 7 32 GB RAM -> 64 GB Ram Intel 1270 v3 -> E-2236 SSD RAID 10 -> single NVMe with daily company backup services Latest stable versions of php, mysql and Nginx The hope is all of that should really improve capacity when traffic is heavy.

If you see this - then your browser is getting to the right place. I'll be pouring over optimization details and running tests for the next week or two at various times, but I think we are good for now. I hope everyone had a peaceful morning. ✌️ Edit: Several asked about donating. While I don't need any contributions for our usual fees, I know the act of giving is a satisfying act.

it’s a legitimate gripe.

that dude is lazy too. Not as lazy as the owner. But pretty ***** lazy.

The dude is a lazy POS.

if you look at the title nothing has been updated.

this is not a support thread.

can we just grow up and lose the bills mafia schtick?

Yes.

I have a real server admin doing the full set up. Too many hackers and security issues to leave this to amateurs.

Going raid 1 NVMe given that any performance hit will be small compared to the leap in HP.

.

I think so. Tried to research 7251 EPYC vs E-2236. Went intel because of the clock speed and php loves single thread exec time. That was my head scratcher for awhile.

Nailed it.

No

Almost finished Alice’s Restaurant

I’m probably going to try and kill two birds with one stone. I think we’re setting up a new box tomorrow and then porting overthink over. I think the new box is going to be super fast. ?

right now I can’t think of a reason not to go with NVMe. In fact, I don’t even know why there’s a choice. They are the same price.

I think so. I'm curious if RAID 10 makes sense in the era of SSDs. I can double the RAM and double the processor benchmark for the price of two SSDs.
