New site server

[SpankMe]

Migration to the new server didn't go as smoothly as I hoped, but we're here. Will be on a temp domain .zyns.com for a day or so while kiwibiker.co.nz catches up with the new IP.

New server specs

XEON 4 core 2.40GHz
8GB memory
2x 500GB HDD (extra one for just the dB)

So a certain ice-cream selling member gets his own hard drive huh? I didn't think he posted all that much these days....

I like the page that links you to the temp domain. They are HOT!

That's your server?! My desktop computer has better hardware than that!

Servers only handle data transfer and none of the complicated stuff like graphics and sound. Means they don't need as much oomph to get the job done well

I certainly hope so because I've been having a lot of issues accessing this site over the past few weeks.

How do you know your desktop hardware is better? He didn't say what hardware he has, only the cpu freq and memory/disk size.....

Must be YOUR computer ... I've had no issues ...

Maybe he can't tell the difference between hard and soft ...

Server architecture is pretty quick, you may find it'd smoke your stuff on actual processing power!

Fark! Responce and search time is considerably noticeable! Best upgrade KB ever had I reckon



Search time down to 0.06 seconds. Now that is instant. I'd always found the previous search function pain in the anus.


I wonder how fast the site will be like at 1:35am?

[steve_t]

Much faster!

Server grade ECC RAM is way more expensive than consumer grade stuff

Sweet as buddy. So does that mean we need another shirt sale/donation to keep you ticking over?

I think Kiwibike Insurance, Motomail, CKTechnical and Motorcycle Doctor are working hard to fulfill that requirement.

It's been working good for me, and I use it every day.
