    ...and we have a new home. At this point we're still hovering nervously over pages and pages of graphs and performance monitors. No matter how much testing you do it always works out differently in Real Life. If you see anything weird (and I don't mean some of the members) then please let us know. If you see any files missing, odd 404s or minor explosions also please let us know. I'd also be keen to hear how performance is. We're on completely new hardware and a new network in a new location. We're keen to see how this all adds up.

    Half the month of May is gone in Soapbox 1.0. There are no top-level posts after 13 May 2015 and I know there were posts almost every day of May.

      Great that the site came back. About 1.5 months (from 14 April 2015) of the General Indian topics are yet to be restored.

        Well the (fairly new) responsive web page stuff made it too. I had really hoped that would get lost in the move. :^) Soren Madsen

            Outside of Albany, NY, and the performance is markedly BETTER than before. Page load times for me are much faster, even the settings pages.

              I don't know if it's the move, or my ISP being visited by the speed fairy overnight, but the site is quite zippy this morning. If the former, good job! :-D :-D

                The site responds to requests considerably faster than before for me too. If it stays like that the move was definitely worth the effort.

                  That's awesome. I'm in Australia at the moment so it's hard to tell. By the numbers perf was equal, but if you're seeing an improvement then I'll take it and run.

                      The site definitely seems snappier than it was before...not getting the weird lags like before either...

                            Sadly switching hosting providers didn't fix the problem I have at work where a fubarred config on my PC/my account with the corporate ssl mitm proxy is preventing anything from loading from the CP CDN in browsers not called internot exploded. :((

                            Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason? Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful? --Zachris Topelius Training a telescope on one’s own belly button will only reveal lint.

                                  That did; but the forum/main page are still showing unstyled HTML in any browser other than IE. (And as mentioned before I have this problem with a number of other sites, so while I appreciate your help I'm doubtful it's something you can fix short of dropping your CDN (which I wouldn't expect you to do.) It's something screwed up with my profile and work's proxy that they can't figure out and can't offer any solution short of wiping my computer and giving me a new profile. X| ) Interestingly, while htat image loads on its own it doesn't show up on the broken page anywhere, although some graphics do. Looking at the blockable items in ABP (with filtering disabled) I am getting stuff from your CDN itself now (which I wasn't before); so it's at least marginally less broken now even if something is still failing that's keeping the site as a whole from actually rendering properly. I'm getting a bunch of images and what look like the main css[^] and javascript[^] files along with an old version f of jquery[^]; but whatever is supposed to trigger applying them to the bare HTML is still not executing.

                                    This is what I expected. The image is served from CacheFly. The main site is currently running on Amazon Cloudfront. Given that the image works I'll switch the site over to Cachefly and we'll see how you go.

                                        It was. I'm not particularly happy with Amazon's performance or pricing. I want to try other options to see how the competition fares.

                                          Can you please try RootAdmin[^] and let me know if that works? It's using the new CDN.
