Peeron has been growing by leaps and bounds since our last major upgrade two
years ago - especially after the instruction scan library was moved from
http://brickshelf.com to PICSL. While this is
great news many of you will have noticed that recently we have been serving
pages sluggishly. The main bottleneck appears to be the server memory. We want
to bring our speed back up to what we all expect and to do this we need to
upgrade the server’s memory.
Thankfully, the main server can support additional memory. To double the amount
of memory available, Peeron will need to pay a $400 upgrade fee.
Peeron currently gets over 350,000 visitors each month and another 100,000 to
LDraw.org. This is more than three times the traffic we had
when we switched to this server 2 years ago. Hopefully with this upgrade we’ll
be able to continue this growth!

| (...) According to the donation page, it looks like you've already hit your goal! That's pretty impressive, considering that the percentage chart was only at 2% when I donated a couple of days ago. David "Fuzzy" Gregory (18 years ago, 29-Jan-07, to lugnet.db.inv, FTX)
