Thankfully, the main server can support additional memory. To double the
amount of memory available, Peeron will need to pay a $400 upgrade fee.

Id like to thank everyone who donated - the server has been upgraded, and
hopefully, its noticeably faster now!

Hi Dan,
Yes, it does seem quite a bit faster for me when I search. Looks like the
upgrade was definitely effective!

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 servers memory.

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 well be able to continue this growth!

According to the donation page, it looks like youve already hit your goal!
Thats pretty impressive, considering that the percentage chart was only at
2% when I donated a couple of days ago. David Fuzzy Gregory

From what Ive seen the goal has been reached in less than 24 hours...and
probably, thats my personal guess, in a very few hours.
Thats, IMO, not surprising, because the initial amount of 400$ is pretty low
and because both Dan as a person & Peeron as a service are so much appreciated.
Dont forget : To support Peeron, you also have to submit inventories (one thing
Im not used to do :-( )
