We're upgrading servers! While we should only be down for a few minutes today during the upgrade, I'm hoping it helps put an end to the sluggish server issues.

While the site is down you're encouraged to:

  • Clean those pesky stains from your uniform, then iron the thing.
  • Check your whacker supplies to make sure nothing is expired.
Then come back!
 
And we're back!

We're on a Intel Xeon E3-1270 with double the memory.

Let me know if you notice anything wonky.
 
It's faster.

That's what I'm noticing, too. Parts of the site that have taken forever load in the past are loading instantly for me now. Should have done this sooner!

Noticed it too...now time to see if I can break it again. :P
 
So this is what our premium memberships bought us, shiny new server.
