Still, during peak times the server is under stress. With a record level of activity and a growing membership, we need to really expand our capacity. I just had a second conference call with the experts from Rackspace (our hosting company) and we're preparing a plan to do just this...

Screw 2GB, go all the way and add a whole 2TB MAN!! DO EET!!! The server will be so fast, all our computers will explode because it's giving us the information at such a high rate of speed. It'll be like, I open my web browser and CC has already taken the liberty of logging me in, taken my turns and has begun on the posting already.

U GUYS R CRAZY!
u think they to add more memory space another entire 1024-fold???
that much memory space is... omg, u have any idea what that would do to costs? the only thing that 'causes things to slow down is when there isn't enough memory to proccess everthing at the optimum speed, once u have ENOUGH memory, adding more memory doesn't do anything, other than waste money.
