RAM Upgraded

[Michael]

Hey everyone,

Our apologies for the 30-40 mins downtime there, we have undergone a RAM upgrade and ran into a few small issues afterwards which are in the process of being fixed. We are now running on double our previous amount of RAM which should help speed things up especially when our schedules are ran. We may have a server reboot later on but it will only take a few minutes to complete.

Thanks for reading guys and I hope this clears things up for anyone wondering why the site was down temporarily

Nice, is yttalk run on a dedicated server or just shared hosting?

Were hosted on a server with one other person so its not fully dedicated but almost is considering its stats, technically were running on a really high end VPS, a funny fact is YTtalk now has almost triple the amount of RAM my home computer has lol.

I wanted to go fully dedicated when we last switched but I was made an offer from our hosting company which provided a far better server shared between two. YTtalk wouldnt be allowed to run on most shared hosting packages, most forums end up outgrowing oversold shared hosting when they hit around 10-20 members online at once.

I'd say yttalk uses up alot of bandwidth too

Hosting companies don't normally charge for bandwidth, they charge for Storage and any add-on's, plus of course things like service charge and what not

(well that's what I remember from when I had a few servers for websites and things when I was interested in website design, might have changed a lot now)
