I will think about that next time I do an overhaul - not a bad idea at all.

Less than 2 weeks... for real

Everyone has their own idea of what a speedtest should be. By trial and error over the years I have came to the version I am using right now. It will without a doubt change over the following years. But right now the version I use is used because of compatability issues, their test uses flash and some of my guests come to this site because of the fact that you don't need to download any special plug-in's - That test looked and worked great for me also... but my results were actually exactly the same as testmy.net --- testmy.net I think I got 4409 Kbps and that site I got something like 4403 Kbps (I am running slow right now). Nice test, but as with most testing sites no upload test, and no logging and stats. Then again, that's not that websites goal anyway, they are a newgroup server(s) so I understand. By the way, I don't know if you use them for your newsgroups but I personally use www.usenetserver.com I pay something like 14.95/month for unlimited transfer and I max my connection out without a problem everytime.

I don't even open the top lid... I just piss all over the walls, lol. Okay, now the truth... seat up... when done put 'em both down, I want to be in a happy marriage one day so I thought I would start training right now.

Oh I didn't see this post.... looks like your running right in line with what you pay for now... you can expect +-10Kbps -- that's normal.

Are you sure there is no limits... I looked at their website and it says nothing about that. http://www.troycable.net/services/rez_broadband.mv Looks like their best package is 2Mbps/256Kbps ~~

Always nice to talk to shug... he makes sure we don't get to serious around here

I get that error sometimes too.. it's a problem with SMF and hopefull will be fixed in their next build. What I do is when that happens I click back and then click the subject title of the post I want to quote... that reload the page then the quote will work just fine.

Sorry guys, I accidently uploaded the header template for the mirror server on the main server it has <base href="http://www.testmy.net/"> tag in it that's needed for the mirror but is bad for the main server... this should be resolved now. - Damon

Nope... those who decide to abuse it will be removed from the program... and the list of Editors will be a small one ~~ only trusted users will be invited to post news. What did you think I was going to make it a free for all..

yeah... like yourself

Okay, I will get a new managment program in place first... then what I think would be cool is if I made it to where curtain members will log into news admin accounts and will have access to add news, with photos and URLs -- stuff like that. I will try and get started on that soon, I will keep you guys posted

So industry news? News about the internet in general?

btw, you can also check your ip at https://testmy.net/whois.php - there is a button that says "check your ip" and it shows your IP ~ may be quicker for ya, I know it is for me.

seems to work for me.... Download Stats cox.net cox.net Download Average = 3008 Kbps :: 367 KB/sec --- 13784 records found (30 days of logs) you Your Download Average = 4151 Kbps :: 507 KB/s --- 275 records found (30 days of logs) Upload Stats cox.net cox.net Upload Average = 379 Kbps :: 46 KB/s --- 3671 records found (30 days of logs) you Your Upload Average = 551 Kbps :: 67 KB/s --- 28 records found (30 days of logs) I am sure that it's only showing that many records because your IP changed, that tool pulls stats based on IP addy

looked into it... try now, my times are much lower Page created in 0.066 seconds with 17 queries. Page created in 0.086 seconds with 17 queries. Page created in 0.046 seconds with 17 queries. Page created in 0.098 seconds with 13 queries. extreamly fast...

The today numbers are often off .. look at the 1 wk. Avg. and 3 mos. Avg. 25,242 and 36,574 shit yesterday the 'today' said 16,000

seems quick to me Page created in 0.417 seconds with 19 queries. :::.. Download Stats ..::: Connection is:: 4948 Kbps about 4.9 Mbps (tested with 2992 kB) Download Speed is:: 604 kB/s Tested From:: https://testmy.net/ (main) Test Time:: Mon Apr 18 2005 20:28:48 GMT-0700 (US Mountain Standard Time) Bottom Line:: 88X faster than 56K 1MB download in 1.7 sec Diagnosis: Awesome! 20% + : 69.34 % faster than the average for host (cox.net) Validation Link:: https://testmy.net/stats/id-I59HXV21Q

:haha: 15,000 -- sheeeeeeiiiiit by the end of the year we should be well over 50K registered users, and I actually expect a lot more than that because of the snowball effect (compounded traffic growth)... I would expect 15K right around 45 days from today - current registration growth is 75-100+ /day ~~ I can't even imagine what the site will be in two more years, it's already becoming a giant and ranking in the top 20K sites on the net (traffic wise) which isn't very easy to do... but I will tell you this, April was a month for me to transfer everything to the new servers, this is almost done... May/June I expect to put in MANY hours of scripting new tools and additions to the site, so stick around and as always tell people about the site. - Damon

attachments will have a problem for some durring the DNS propegation by the way... usually take 48 hours to propegate to the new server ~~ about 12 hours in right now. DNS is wierd

Good idea, I will see what I can come up with

hehe, no I just posted that premature.. the query wasn't done yet... you should notice now that it's fast as a mofo ~~ I haven't even gotten to the point of tweaking the details of the server yet... still need to transfer

Okay, score DB has been transfered. Some of you may have noticed the lag durring the transfer... I added about 1.2 million records to mysql so this is normal ~~ the worst is over (for you guys anyway) the rest should be smooth with little or no effect on testmy.net users - I'll keep this thread posted.

It's going to get WAY faster.... or should anyway ~~ even under heavy load.

the forum DB is only about 40MB (non-gzip) the score DB is about 250MB the forum images and attachments are a few hundred MB and the rest of the site (including some offline files of my own) is about 30GB ~~ it's a big transfer
