Does RS seem faster to you?

We're running things though Google's servers now (basically it sits between our server and you, and speeds everything up)

It is sure a lot faster for me, but that could be mostly the CDN at work (with static resources being sent through a server that is closer to me).

But overall it's pretty damn fast I gotta say. This service is free for now, I wonder how much they will charge later?

I could tell the difference before you even made this thread. It loaded the forums without that lag I was used to. It is definitely faster.

edit; even posting this post was super quick. I'm definitely liking this upgrade!

Yeah I enabled it a few days ago. Also using it for some other sites. It's pretty incredible! I bet it really helps rankings too

Now we can look into moving to a new host that is faster but cheaper, and a bit further from Vancouver. After that, we can look into upgrading the forum software finally

do you have adblock/adblock plus running on this site? if you do, the chat will be stuck on loading. turn it off and it works just fine.

I've been noticing lag caused by the google ads not loading

no clue as to why that is though or if it still exists as it wasnt a pervasive issue

1) Make sure adblock is disabled. You should be doing this anyway (thanks!)

2) If anything other than Multi+ is broken, clear your cache and try again. AFAIK that's the only thing not working yet.

I find a problem has started occurring the past few days where I hit "NEW POSTS" and it appears to load twice (so quick it is unnoticeable) and causes the message of needing to "wait 10 seconds before searching again" to show up. Happens half of the time I click it.
