Activity 🦋 Sen! 🦋 2020-01-20 15:24:38 UTC @ralph Just a quick question- the website used to use something called hostgator right? What happened to that? I just remembered that the website would be down alot thanks to it. 1 Ralph (Developer) · 6 years, 5 months ago lol well you answered your own question “the website would be down alot ” because that was shared hosting, the most common type of hosting for any typical website that isn’t massively popular SN outgrew it as it was hitting the CPU limits constantly so I moved to a kind of middle-ground between a dedicated server ($thousand+ a year) and a shared server via ServerMania no complaints so far I think any slowdowns at this point is due to just the amount of plugins the site uses that could be optimized 2020-01-20 17:57:31 UTC 1

because that was shared hosting, the most common type of hosting for any typical website that isn’t massively popular
SN outgrew it as it was hitting the CPU limits constantly
so I moved to a kind of middle-ground between a dedicated server ($thousand+ a year) and a shared server via ServerMania
no complaints so far I think any slowdowns at this point is due to just the amount of plugins the site uses that could be optimized
