Site speed

Just a heads up that the site will be marginally slower over the next week in the leadup to xen. (We're reshuffling server pools.)

 

RIP navigation

Shouldn't be that bad.

 

Prob not, but I remember when the pools were fucked up, not a fun experience

wow way to suck

The production pool has been reduced slightly, it's not broken.

We need servers in a particular data center where our other servers are (for latency reasons.) Unfortunately out of our three hosts only one has excess capacity there that they are willing to sell us. To avoid building the new production pool out of nodes from a single provider I've taken two of the other provider nodes out of production to place in the new pool.

why not just add caching?

Lol. Add caching to what?

everything. caching makes it go faster

no shit, which is why we already heavily cache everything

we cache static content
we cache php scripts
we cache query results
we cache tables

hence my amusement at your question

We do. If you return to the page you posted on all of the cache misses incurred by your hit will provide cache updates.

is the cache mongodb and node? thats the only way to make it web scale

A little bit of knowledge is a dangerous thing. In your case a little bit of knowledge makes you look retarded

It needs to be Web scale or it won't scale. Sql is dead and uses disk so it's io bounded. Just use Mongo and it only uses memory so it's fast and webscale. Just rewrite everything in node. It's Javascript so it just works and isn't shit like c or c++. No one uses those shitty languages anymore and for good reason. I can't wait for Linux to switch to node and it will be so much faster

Glad to see you upgrading!

It's not too much slower than before so good job on fixing the platform .

sigh I don't even ...

can't even be bothered to tell you on how many levels what you're saying is completely retarded

I really hope you're trolling. What do you think nodejs is written in?

Node is Javascript sk clearly it is self hosting and runs itself. Soon the kernel will run in the cloud instead of locally. Local programs are dead and everything will have to be written in node to be webscale using Mongo since it's webscale. Or you can write stuff in other languages and it will compile to asm.js because that's what runs everything and what the kernel will be written in because it's Web scale
