lol yea u cheeky sod.
The move went ok, and i could change the couple of lines of code easy. The proble was that the new system just couldn't cope with the web service AND the database services.
I did stress-test it before moving over, and it was fine. But with the number of visitors we have it just wasn't able to cope.
It's mainly the photos of events and people that were the problem.... need to overhaul that system. I can't explain it too much, but basically it's a disk I/O issue.
Right im working on the fixes now (and tonight).
Not sure if we need to change servers at the moment though, cos the site is running really well right now with the database on its own server.
Ill get the fixes implements though, and then look at moving again next week.
so 7 hours last night and ive restructures the profile photos. I've never know the site run so fast as it is now! :-)
Implementing the same fix with event photos now too. Will take about 4 hours.
