Hello everyone,

I made a long overdue upgrade to the CPU and memory of the server by doubling both. Hope that helps some of the slow load times. I sometimes forget how many active users this server has and that number has only grown in the past year.

Thanks!

Thanks very much! Curious what the specs are at this point, if you’re willing to share!

Nothing terribly impressive. 4 vCPUs and 8 GB RAM on a 120 GB ssd.

What CPUs are they? Like a modern Epyc, or a crusty 20 year old box like some of our appsrvs at work?

I guess it doesn’t need much for essentially database and the base of the website. I always figured it would need more. Any plans on going physical?

Not sure. Whatever digital ocean runs
