[ARCHIVED] CDN Plans

[RAF]

I've recently been looking into the loading speeds of Rune Gear and I am not satisfied. I'm earning in the $xxx from ads alone on a monthly basis, and the server costs are not even in the three digits, which is amazing. I've decided, why not invest some more money into the server. I've been doing some research, and from a recommendation of another Webmaster, I've decided to invest some more money into a CDN.

A CDN is a content delivery network. Basically, the images and some other components are hosted off-site on another top-of-the-line server. When you connect to Rune Gear, instead of the strain being all on the VPS, it will lighten the load by connecting you to the CDN to load the images and such. This will also increase Rune Gear's loading times substantially.

I do have plans to implement this in the next 2 weeks or so. So, sit tight. There may be some down time but I'll notify you if there is.

You could've just said it will be faster instead of writing all that in 10 seconds. Jokes, RG is already fast for me, can't wait for more fastnessish.

Seems pretty good. Sometimes the site laggs for me, hopefuly it will be reduced/cease happening after the CDN "upgrade".

RG is fast. The only thing that I dislike is when I have more than three tabs open, it slows...any specific reason why?

It's on your end mainly, since you're using your bandwidth to load 3 pages. It's like you have one tube and you need to fill that up with water, it's faster to fill up one tube than 3 tubes, since the water will be shared around. Same with bandwidth, you will be sharing your download speed with the 2 other pages, therefore causing a slowing of the speed.

RE: CDN Plans

Alright,
Thanks for the response but it's usually only on this site. For instance:
I am currently on Facebook, Youtube, GP, HF, and this site. All other sites run out a phenomenal speed but this site doesn't. But I will see more to it on my part.

Runegear has always been fast for me. Doing this will only make it faster, which is amazing.

RE: CDN Plans

It runs fast for me as well, and I am on my iPod. But increasing the loading speed is something great to invest too.

This will be a great boost for Rune Gear

Thanks for informing us boss.

RE: CDN Plans

This will be good when we get a lot of content on the site. Everyone on the internet likes to speed through things.

RE: CDN Plans

Good to see you caring about the speed. Thanks.
