In a few hours I'm going to switch to nginx from Apache, so there might be a long period of downtime while I get it working.

Bitcoin mining is now a specialized and very risky industry, just like gold mining. Amateur miners are unlikely to make much money, and may even lose money. Bitcoin is much more than just mining, though!

Did the downtime occur yet, and does that explain why I don't see any avatars in threads?

there might be a long period of downtime while I get it working.

Is this now completed, or will there be further adjustments [edit: affecting site availability] made?

OK, it's done. There were more complications than I expected. Tell me if you see any problems.

Works fine (so far), thank you very much for upgrading.

Can we expect the forum to lag less in high traffic peaks now?

All previous versions of currency will no longer be supported as of this update

yes nginx, uses a different way of handling each connection then apache so the performance should be better

There were some slow spots but things have picked up. Hope my suggestions URL I posted didn't cause too many problems, doesn't sound like the avatar function helped that much.

You may want to consider some nginx tuning as well if you haven't already tried.

No, it was a good idea. I just wasn't able to do it properly with the old Apache setup (which was somewhat broken). I also converted some tables to InnoDB as recommended at your link. Most of the suggestions there involved disabling useful features, though, which I'm not going to do.

Thanks for the tip.

I think there is an improvement, but it might just some kind of placebo effect since I knew changes were being made!

There were a few minutes of down time. Maybe some people left. Wait until another peek time.

Theymos, do you have any say bandwidth stats that show when the forums are the most heavily used?

I know they all weren't good or usable, but something like the icons the way it explained it seemed like it could be super helpful.

Still getting a LOT of 502 errors here.

All I can say is that this is Bitcoin. I don't believe it until I see six confirmations.

InnoDB has lots of tuning options that can dramatically impact performance, especially the buffer pool size, but you probably already know that.
