Question

We have moved site to a new and much faster server. Do you guys see any speed difference?

Thanks Kirtan. We are testing the whole website and fixing the problems we finding. We are also changing content publisher to a single page that would take care of the wizard problem. This should go live sometime next week.

Forum Performance is increased ...but Performance of Content Publisher is very very slow it takes a lot time while navigating wizard from one step to another..especially while opening that editor and when we press finish button .

Yes Sam. Ideas section is perfect for all new ideas. This forum (Bugs) is good for any problems you find. YES I got the feature you mentioned but it was implemented partially. If you post a question you will get notifications every time somebody replies. The part that is being implemented is everybody who participate in the thread will get notified. This is on the test server and will go live in next code updated. Cheers!

Will do. I am not aware of any problems associated with the move but if anyone finds something such as that shall we report them here or in the forum for forum feedback (I think that is the name of the forum or is it forum bugs; I forget)? On the subject of improving the application shall we post suggestions in the Ideas forum? One idea I consider especially important is a subscrption ability for notification of when a thread gets replies. I suggested that a few months ago. I consider that critical for real forum software; real in the sense that it is a necessity for truly useful forums. That suggestion might actually be relevant to server performance also since some members have software that periodically scrapes the forum pages to get updates which causes more work for the server.

Thanks Sam. We have got a really good server with 16 GB RAM and faster processors. Now we will focus on optimizing application as well. Please let me know if any link is not working or there are any issues. Thanks!

Yes it is certainly faster; thank you. I think there are many people using the forums now yet response is good or excellent.
