Yes, it is a LAMP dedicated box hosted by Servint. I like to do my own basic updates, optimizing and maintenance. Anything more complicated (or anything I break) they can handle. If anyone is looking for a good virtual host I'd recommend them.
Over the past few weeks there have been a lot of changes made to the server. The ultimate goal is to speed up pageloads.
The site has been moved from a vps to a dedicated box, the core programs have all been updated etc. The database storage type has been tweaked, etc. During this time, even though there have been outages, errors and slow page loads, I have only received a few complaints so hopefully it hasn't disrupted things too much.
Putting the finishing touches on a few things today, then we should be good to go... until the next time we need to upgrade.
Thank you for your patience.
