    not complaining, tbh... but something isn't right...

    Look at neowin (http://www.neowin.net/forum/) and they currently have 1800 users online and it's a breeze. That site uses IPB, and not vBulletin though.

    For vBulletin, look at http://www.pbnation.com/forum.php... Currently 1896 active users and also a breeze.

    Agree. Please remove guest viewing. It's only fair for those who put in the work registering in the forum.

    If timvp could forward this to the tech guys (I know Slomo told me once who it was, but I forget). It stuff that can help. I ran YSlow on the site and here's a few things that should be easily fixable and produce some speed ups:

    Code:
    Grade F on Add Expires headers

There are 26 static components without a far-future expiration date.

    You can fix the above with mod_expire on Apache, and adding to the Apache config:
    ExpiresActive on
    ExpiresByType application/javascript "access plus 30 days"
    ExpiresByType image/png "access plus 30 days"
    ExpiresByType image/ico "access plus 30 days"

    Code:
    Grade F on Compress components with gzip

There are 7 plain text components that should be sent compressed

    http://www.spurstalk.com/forums/clientscript/vbulletin_read_marker.js?...
    http://www.spurstalk.com/forums/clientscript/vbulletin-sidebar.js?...
    Installing mod_gzip on Apache should fix the above.

    The rest of the stuff is mostly due to how vBulletin is designed and there's no easy fix. You can run YSlow on your own, but installing the YSlow and FireBug extensions on FireFox. Once installed, load the page, then open up FireBug from the Tools->Web Developer->Firebug menu and select the YSlow tab.

    Turning off avatars during the last game seemed to help, tbh.

    The "live" thread feature for the game thread can't be good for the servers. If 1,000 members including guests are in the thread, that means it refreshes 1,000 times in a 45 second span or however long the timer is set to.

    It's ajax.... it only loads the new posts... it's not that taxing.... something else was going on.
