well, the 250 are a little bit expensive... however, the opteron 242s are fine (Cheaper then 2.8 too) ($229.00 vs. $279.00) benchmarks (Xeon 2.8 vs Opteron 242)

I am assuming that neowin isn't using the nocona based xeons.

We ordered a 3rd server and Marcel (Redmak) has it setup in the following order

1x P4 2.8GHz (Dual) Xeon with 4GB Memory <- MySQL Server

2x P4 2.8GHz (Dual) Xeon with 2GB Memory <- Apache (HTML) Server with load-balancing

This means we have 2 servers doing the work for apache requests.

Our Ad software and all images will also be moved from the MySQL server to the  load balanced HTML servers (server2 and 3) in the morning.

The load balancing solution is hardware (not software) and we also purchased a spam filter that checks mail before it reaches our mail server, dropping spam before it can create load on the mail server. Mail will also be left on the MySQL server.

the Planet (our host) has been great throughout with advice, assistance and timdorr assisted with the configuration of our load-balancer.

So fear not! We are working on the problem by chucking money at it, paid for by our generous members who do not block our ads. Thanks to you guys.

ps: The 3rd server was enabled a half hour ago, so it will take a while before it becomes effective, and we still need to move the rest of the data from the MySQL, performance should however increase in the coming hours.

    • Samsung is shutting down yet another app used by millions

      That's not clickbait. Clickbait is headlines like, "You'll never guess what this person looks like now" for example. For goodness sake, take a look around the internet if you think this is clickbait. How do sites survive if people don't click through to articles? How many people in all honesty would have clicked this if it had your suggested headline? You and those upvoting your post won't be happy until the web is a couple of hundred websites all behind a paywall.

    • Forza Horizon 6 gets big bug-fixing and balancing update

      By Defiantly · Posted

      Maybe I missed it, but does this say anywhere that the game save bug has been squashed? I haven't encountered it myself, but it would be nice to know I'm good to go. Anyway, amazingly well done game. Mostly more of the same. ...but when the same is best in class with improved graphics and features, then a win.

      Well when your game flops, you should expect this. If I do bad at work, I would expect a layoff. Less than 1600 people played it on steam. https://steamdb.info/app/1934570/charts/
