      Lightbulb tuning :))

      Hello ...

      Nah, it wasn´t my car which was been tuned, it was our server !
      People, I had some time and spent some time with looking into some documents.
      After our upstream provider finally fixed the routing troubles, it was time to speed up the server as well
      Did some tweaks to MySQL and some "cache" thingies.
      Now the server load dropped a lot and this forum is now damn fast

      More to come ..
      Hope you enjoy ...

      Thanks fly out to Zoiah, he always help me with the icky config files and with Linux of course ...

      Hmm, something like that ...
      Had some troubles lately with a too big load
      So what I tried is to update to MySQL 4. Which I did, and the good thing about it is: the capability of caching querries.
      So the server is now less busy with MySQL and page generation is now quite fast ...
      I am happy with the speed improvement, and yet no problem apeared, so yes ..
      I think that is a success for now

      Server is running RedHat
      Personally I am using RedHat and Debian ...
      From time to time, especially for recovering I use Knoppix ...

      I better stick to a system I am used to ..
      Kinda into Redhat already ...
      and I am sure nobody would be able to breach our server thourgh the system ..
      The last "hack" was done through a lame injection bug in a broken PHP script ...

      If anybody is able to hack this box, I am gone invite that guy for an good austrian beer

      Jup ..
      and RedHat still offers the better professionel service ... so that is another reason to do not use a "freak" distro like Debian
