Hi all,
As So many people responded to my request for help testing the new server, I though I would post details of it here.

Remeber this is a test forum, so any posts entered will not be saved.
Try it out, let me know, via this thread - or a thread I'll start on the other site.
I am particularly interested in any speed / performance problems.
Thanks for your help.
Dan
Looks good Dan, I had no probs! DP
- nice & sharp - difficult to say whether faster - this one has been behaving reasonably recently! = Tim
seems slightly faster and sharper to me Dan
Richard
No problems getting in Dan. Looks fine to me.
P.S.
Still can't get into chat room - keep getting debugging message but I think that might be something to do with me??!!
- you could use an organic spray?? = Tim
Seems good to me, but like Tim said, this one has been okay now for a bit so it is difficult to tell if it was any quicker.
Well seems okay to me Dan,
Difficult to assess speed and clarity, but everything is working well.
Eileen the same thing happend with mine, it is to do with the internet settings on your computer, unfortunately I cannot remember which settings! Maybe a computer whiz will come along and help in a minute...

It definitely seems faster and I had no problems getting into the chat room ;D
Just tryed it again and it is faster
Definitely faster, Dan - anything from 10 to 40% faster on all the pages I tried downloading text only. Â
Still faster, but not so marked when downloading images - but that's not a surprise with so many being links to "off-site" sources.
On my elderly slow machine it made a big difference.
All best - Gavin
PS - WOW! Reply to a new post on the new server is extraordinarily fast!
seems fine Dan

Seems to work just as well as the present site, except for two occasions when I used the back button and got the "This page not available" page, but on each occasion another touch of the back button solved the problem.
Definitely a bit faster tho`.
Just tried it Dan - did seem slightly faster but as the others have said, this site seems to be ok for the moment so difficult to say.
Is it faster because there is less information stored on it?

Ten,
All the threads / pictures etc from about 5 days ago are on the test server.
It may be a little faster as less people are using it concurrently.
Cheers
Dan
