[QUOTE="Psionicist, post: 169743, member: 1874"] This will help a little... 1) Put downloadable files like asgard magazine on other, free server. This will reduce serverload. 2) Put images on other free server, a well as all other files not plain text. 3) Put the d20reviews database -or- the whole d20review thing on a separate server. 4) Force the number of posts viewed per page to 15 or 20. 5) DISABLE attachments!!! 6) Disable unnecessary sendmail services. 7) Disable "views" on forum indexes. Unnecessary db quries. 8) Disable forum access for unregistered users, "guests". This is not the best solution but it might be necessary in the future. The optimal changes presented here are 1, 2, 3, 5 and 8. The other options are just details for a small ammount of extra bandwidth. Option 7 is also a good thing to disable. We have enough MySQL queries already. And finally, go to the secret moderator panel and look for this line on the frontpage: [b]Server Load Averages 0.69, 0.52, 0.50 94 users online (65 members & 29 guests).[/b]. The 3 numbers (0.69, 0.52, 0.50 in this case) should be below 3, preferable around 1-2. Over and out. [/QUOTE]
