We've made some major changes behind the scenes at Leerburg.com, and we are happy to say we've seen substantial increases in speed and performance throughout the website as a result. Webboard users should also see a significant decrease in loading time when viewing the forums.
Thank you for bearing with us the past couple days while we implemented these changes. We believe they will greatly improve the experience of all of our website users.
curious from a tech illiterate, how does one make a website go (do everything) faster?
I would get it if you got rid of all the graphics and made a more text based site but nothing appears different graphics wise so - what voodoo magic was this?
or I will write it off as just another one a dem mysteries an old guy just has to accept.
Bob, I find this factoid mind blowing, folks now talk about all the new things they gotta learn and how much change there is;
my grandmother, RIP, (and her generation) saw WW1 start with guys on horses, saw WW2 end with radar and atomic bombs, man land on the moon,the internet thingy get switched on, mobile-phones and GPS amongst other things.
I don't think any generation before or since lived that much change.

I would answer the speed question but to be honest, just accept that they got a new breed of working-line hamsters on the wheels beyond that software versions, increasing bandwidth and using distributed servers is probably more than you want to know or care about.
Peter, I'm one of those old farts that can remember when the milk was delivered by horse and wagon in our neighborhood but I willingly accept Kristin's thoughts about the "new working line hamsters on the wheel" running the programs.
Yes, the past 150 yrs have shown more advancements then the previous 1-2-3 thousand yrs. For myself, the use of marker training compared to where I spent the previous 50 yrs in training still amazes me.
I can only say with my head buried in the sand and blissfully lacking in the new "stuff" I thank Bobbie for the IT hamster marker training.
May they keep the hamsters fast and happy!
I am sceptical about the hamster theory, I think it is a red herring - we all know that breeding hamsters for the show ring has eroded the genuine working qualities of all hamsters and the working titles these days are only as good as the judges.
they don't even have doors on computers these days so how do they feed the hamsters??
riddle me that.
Bob can you believe that where I lived right up until a late teenager the most modern communication was a piece of fencing wire strung between trees for hundreds of miles so locals could talk to each other over it with a wind up phone.
they called it a "party line" and everyone could talk on it at the same time and all conversations could be heard by anyone who picked the phone up - party for sure.
and yep, marker training is a revelation for me,i loath the electricity/escape training tho and refuse to know or learn it.
We were on a two party line. Out on the farms they had most everyone in small towns going through the same terminal.
There could be 3-4-5 people talking to one another like today's conference calls.
No wonder they were called "party lines."
If you didn't want to be in on the party you just had to wear a tin foil hat and you wouldn't receive the connection.
ah virtual doors, of course. still, dam hard to get good workin line hamsters these days.
not sure why but in the middle of a storm and the party line went down it was always my job to saddle up in the middle of the night and find the break, frikkin carbide light as well. so I am standing in the middle of nowhere at the point of break with a piece of fencing wire in one hand that went for miles thataway through god knows how many lightning storms and a piece of wire in the other hand going miles thataway thru untold lightning storms and gotta somehow splice them together in the hail and lightning by the light of carbide which is explosive on contact with water.
when I finally got an education and learned about conduction of electricity I paused to wonder If the old man actually wanted me to come back or not.
