Mark - If it's for Premier users, should it not have a better spec than the existing one? Leave that for Standard users.
The existing ones are fine.. Note the plural. They are fast. The problem is the Premier content is currently served from the same server the site is sat on. Consequently when demand for premier content is high the site slows down. Separating out the site from the Premier content will solve the issue of the site slowing, no matter what the demand on the Premier server is.
Rather than buying servers for content delivery doesn't it make more sense to use systems such as Amazons S3/Cloudfront, I know Amazon aren't everyones favourite service at the moment but there are plenty of other content delivery networks out there that can handle both public and private content
Not the
ads as it has
been shakey
for me fo
r nearly two weeks now.

This is the spec of one of our servers...Processor Quad Core Xeon 2.66Ghz
CPU Cores 4 CPU Cores
RAM 4GB DDR3 RAM
Hard Disk 1 x 300GB Ultra-fast SAS
Hardware Raid RAID 0
Port Speed 100MbitWe are looking to get another one to serve purely Premier content.
Hopefully it'll have a Gigabit NIC in it
We are looking at cloud servers too. The only worry there seems to be the runaway potential pricing tariff. But we are weighing up the pros and cons.
And yes Don.. we know it's not the ads. I think I explained that.
Needs more coal.
