GBAtemp is...

[Costello]

GBAtemp changes servers almost every year because it keeps getting larger and larger!
We usually know it's time to change servers when the site becomes really slow on a regular basis.

If/when the server is slow, or unusually fast, please make a post here and mention how many users are online.
This will be a great help for us when we re-evaluate the needs & resources.

Thanks!

RED ALERT!!

even though theres about 400 people looking at the release thread, the forum is still fast.
Well done google ads

 

[Bladexdsl]

damn whatever you guys did to the forum don't change a thing!

 

[EyeZ]

the past few days i've noticed a marked improvement in the page loading, from google struggling to load the page, to loading practically in an instant.

 

[Mr.Mysterio]

GBAtemp is really fast since you guys changed the servers.The forums are fast even though a whole lot of people reading the Spirit Tracks thread.I havent got any Service Temporarily Errors since the server change.

Thank you guys for making GBAtemp so efficient

last month for me was to slow... like i couldnt access gbatemp.net but now i can get in withing 5 secs preety nice server u got right now.

The drastic speed increases are simply because having the Google Ads shown to guests (only) allowed us to upgrade our infrastructure! So before anyone ever complains about the adverts, remember why we must have them!

 

[ericling]

Last few month,Gbatemp is quite slow..
But recently,Gbatemp very fast now!
I heard from someone that Gbatemp just upgrade the server last few week..Is it true?

 

[Costello]

yes it's true ericling.
We got some money income thanks to the adverts we set up for the guests (non-registered members).
we used that money to buy super powerful servers and we set them up properly.

 

[ericling]

Thanks for the answer Costello!
Glad to hear this..

It is really obvious that the server is so fast now.
And I find out if I use Gbatemp Lite Skin is faster than the default skin(Gbatemp V3)
True?or just my problem?

 

[Costello]

yeah the lite and classic skins use less graphics than the V3 skin, so it loads faster.

 

[Densetsu]

Even during the Spirit Tracks n00b flood, it was blazing!

 

[Bladexdsl]

what happened it's getting sluggish again?

 

[Elritha]

Seems to be getting slow here again. Maybe it's just my connection.


Edit: Never mind. Suddenly it picked up on speed again.

 

[prowler]

Yeah, it was slow for a while :S

 

[Bladexdsl]

it's fine now

 

[Hatsu]

yeah the lite and classic skins use less graphics than the V3 skin, so it loads faster.

Yay! A good reason to use the Lite skin!
