When a new post was on the screen I would click on the name of the person who had posted and wait at least 10 seconds.

i.e.  Today 05:20:26 by Bâshrat the Sneaky

When submitting a reply 30 seconds was not unusual.

Not now, almost instant.

Ok, that was something I only did *very* rarely I think it's slower because it's not cached/optimized as heavily as the rest, because, well, it's expected to be used less Anyway, it's good that it's instantaneous, and it's expected. The server is only running at 3% load, it's *that* much more powerful!

The difference is like night and day.

I used to wait 10-15 seconds for a page to change, now it's instant.

Way to go.

Wow, I almost never had that slow pageloads… But still painfully slow and *especially* very unreliable, so it's still a major improvement

Yep, and is it fast or what?

Yup, it's fast!

So that's the status of the new Drupal site?  I tried visiting last week and was asked for my password (which didn't work).

wherever you go...

there you are!

It's not yet on the new server, I just wrote this already You're not supposed to have read this yet

So, it's a draft for news then, eh?

Who would have guessed!

PS: You don't happen to be a part-time journalist, Bâshrat the Sneaky?
Writing the news before the events happen is rather common among them, I have been told (they just want to be prepared for whatever the outcome is).
