That microwave post is hilarious. Isn't it amazing how fast we get accustomed to the speed technology provides? When I went into the Air Force "internet" was not even a word anyone used yet now we can't live without it. It's good to be able to communicate instantly with people half a world away you don't even know nor would know had it not been for this system. (I'm trying really hard not to put an Al Gore joke in this post.)  |

I know and agree, remember the first cell phones, looked like a brick...damn we are spoiled, I know I am. Who knew (like you stated) computers would become so interactive with our lives.
When I came in (69)...the USAF was happy if you could form a complete sentence...remember the MARS stations, Autovon...man, the world changed, everything has to be right now...guess I am guilty of that myself...spoiled I guess, no more patience for slow things...shame in a way but it is now a very fast paced world (so lets get this damned thing working faster)  . |

We've been working on the site's responsiveness for the past months. About 1 month ago, we moved to a faster server, and since then the site has been pretty fast.
I wanted to monitor the site for a while before announcing that we "fixed" this problem, but since the site's been working fast for me in the past weeks I'm confident we actually did fix it
I took us a while as we tried various approaches to speed up things, but we only got marginal gains. In the end, moving to a faster server was the only way to get a noticeable improvement.
If you notice the site slowing down again, please let me know.
