Speed of the site continues to be a big problem for me, and I am able to spend less and less time at Renderosity as a result. I agree it is quite variable...at times the store is even slow, but mainly it's the galleries and, at times, the forums. It happens more often than can be explained as "we must have been doing maintenance." My main gripe (which, Stacey, I know you've heard me say before) is the slowness of the galleries. I can only hope that the change over which you say will happen in 5-ish weeks will help matters.

I STILL believe that the server capacity could always have been expanded here to handle the load and improve site speed for everybody. But that does cost more $$.

I was SO INCREDIBLY impressed yesterday over at DAZ, with all the Hexagon 2.0 activity, when they added TEN additional servers because their customers complained about the slowness. I just wish we'd have seen that sort of responsiveness from the owners here.
