(Welcome to the) NEW Chiefsplanet SERVER!!!!

OK, the time has finally come... we have a new server!

I will be spending tonight and all day tomorrow transitioning to the new digs... I don't expect it to affect us until late tomorrow afternoon.

I will make give everybody a warning then take us offline for (hopefully!) 3-4 hours...

When we are done, we will have a new home with 6 TIMES the power and RAM as before... I expect to see some MAJOR upgrades in performance... once we have settled into the new server, I will start to prep us for a major upgrade to our Vbulletin software... but that may wait until the post season...

I know it's been a long time coming, but bear with me for a little longer and it will all be worth it!

My way of dealing with it all is I open 4 tabs, and while one thread is loading, I read another. Hope this helps.

Didn’t say it did. I would guess it is related to WHM and it’s background processes.

Found an interesting bottleneck and tried an experiment that seems to have helped (converting the session table from MEMORY to InnoDB). Seems like a bad idea, but things got better instantly, so...we'll see.

I mostly just try to experiment without breaking stuff.

Nicely done. It's exponentially quicker now. Actually not noticing any significant lag.

Any of the tables that are constant write to should be converted to InnoDB. If they are primary read only tables the MyISAM.

I get that for most tables, but the session table is almost universally believed to be best as a MEMORY table. But I did some reading that suggested InnoDB might be better for relatively high-use servers, and we basically have the whole DB read into RAM at this point anyway, so I figured I'd give it a go.

I don't fully understand WHY it worked, but it certainly seems to be making a difference. The backups are still doing their thing in the background, and our CPU load is a little elevated, but I'm hopeful that we're chipping away at the various bottlenecks.

FWIW, AC told me that PHP 7.1 is on the radar (which requires a slight update to vB 3.8.11 as well). The rest of the stuff is up to date at this point.
