Apples and Oranges may both be fruit just as Linux and ASP are software but they are built to acomplish different things. Anyway, as you should know, CP are in the process of rewriting the site to use ASP.NET.

You do realise that Tomaz was taking the piss with his reply about Linux to the original poster? Michael Martin Australia "I controlled my laughter and simple said "No,I am very busy,so I can't write any code for you". The moment they heard this all the smiling face turned into a sad looking face and one of them farted. So i had to leave the place as soon as possible." - Mr.Prakash 24/04/2004

Indeed. Anyone at CP considered Linux as alternative. It's obvious that ASP can't handle large site like this one. :-D Tomaz

It's nice to hear that and with the litany of perf troubles we've had there's been a real shortage of good vibe. jubilex wrote: can see that others have had the same problems, but apparently solved them somehow Well, they haven't really. The troubles are continuing. Here's a couple of things you can try: The site works reasonably well before 6am EST and after 3pm EST, until we get our problems ironed out, you will be happier if you visit us outside of these times. Also, we've made each of our web servers individually addressable. rather than hitting www.codeproject.com, you might try web1.codeproject.com through web6.codeproject.com. It's hard to explain but the load is not being evenly split between servers, and so some of the servers are overloaded at times, and others have lots of capacity. We have a number of things underway to improve CodeProject's performance, including new hardware, a caged hosting space (I think we're at something like 14 servers and have exhausted the realestate on our rack), and some optimization of site's code where we can eek out improvements. Many thanks for your patience. We're working hard on the perf problems and we should all see some progress very soon. David
David, I for one appreciate the effort the team are putting in ! I plan on trying to persuade the supplier to do black t shirts, white isn't my colour :suss: Elaine (fashion snob fluffy tigress) The tigress is here :-D

I am sure that most of us that do regularly visit TCP have nothing but good vibes for this place. :) I can almost feel the pain and strain of the webservers... I am one that's cheering on the sidelines - keep up the good work! : Dean 'Karnatos' Michaud

I'm curious... do you think that slowly phasing the site into ASP.Net would help? Joel Holdsworth

The site re-write in ASP.NET is very near code complete, and we're all waiting for the time when we can deploy it. We have a boatload of testing (functional, load, perf, etc.) to do before that happens though, and we need to stay focused on fixing what's currently broken. David

More over switching to linux wouldn't even help because linux doesn't create bandwidth. Tomaž Štih wrote: It's obvious that ASP can't handle large site like this one. You think PHP could handle it better? I don't think so. Matt Newman
What is your malfunction? - Dangeresque, too?
From Matt Newman: More over switching to linux wouldn't even help because linux doesn't create bandwidth. Actually, its TCP/IP stack is implemented much better than on Windows (not the best in the world though) which allows for a higher throughput of existing bandwidth. Jeremy Falcon

So, are you guys going to setup a test server somewhere on which some of us could squeeze out the last bugs before rolling it out on codeproject.com?
