Pretty sure we're slower right now because the site architecture is already on the new server, but the database is still on the old. So considering we're going cross-country every time you load a page, I'm impressed we're loading at

During the Friday downtime.

Moot now, because I'm told by Daniel that we're moved. Based on the site speed, I'd say we're back to full capacity, on a stronger server.

And by short, we mean "probably in the millisecond range".

But if you can throw chairs that fast, power to you...

Sometime early Friday morning (US time, roughly 27-30 hours from now), the forums will probably be down for less than half an hour.

Server maintenance (and we're done).

In case it actually takes the site down, people can at least have a clue it was coming.

That too, though we're usually not specific enough to stop the 50 posts a minute (or whatever) from slowing down appreciably...
