I copied this after reading while visiting the Poser forum and thought you brycers might like to read it also..

Well, Santa heard you loud and clear. So, he and the Renderosity Elves snuck out in the wee hours of Monday morning and installed a new database server. We thought it would make the perfect gift to share with all the Renderosity Artists...no matter how naughty or nice...

This is just one of the things we have been planning to bring better performance to Renderosity. We still have a couple more items on our task list to work through, but we are hoping you can already feel the improvement.

We have replaced our old IBM database server. It was a quad P4 processor with 16GB ram...not a bad box, but just could not handle the load anymore. Now that the old database server has retired, it will likely do some remedial tasks while it watches the new boxes around it play and grow.

The new database server has Quad Dual Core Opteron processors with 32GB ram. So, it has about twice the ability of older one. This new server will handle the load coming in from the front-end boxes a lot easier. Basically what I'm trying to say, is it plays well with others : )

You should be noticing site speed improvements in most areas of the site. The only place right now that is not as noticeable is the Marketplace. We will be working in the Marketplace next.

We hope this gift of hardware will make your seasons bright as you come to Renderosity, morning, noon and night!

May your holiday season be filled with with joy, and fantastic works of art!

All the best, now its back to the Poser forum for me......be quiet Bryster :tongue2:

I have opinions of my own -- strong opinions -- but I don't always agree with them.

tom here is what they are doing with them...."it will likely do some remedial tasks while it watches the new boxes around it play and grow."...it will be used for other things.

I have opinions of my own -- strong opinions -- but I don't always agree with them.
