Instead of pursuing this kind of thing, why not go with paypal and ask for donation? I'm curious, why are you forking that much money for a simple wiki ? 60$ a month seems a lot. Could you provide stats about bandwidth usage and stuff like that ? --[[User:Karl|Karl]] 22:59, 18 September 2009 (UTC) | Instead of pursuing this kind of thing, why not go with paypal and ask for donation?

::Karl's got a good point, I just looked at the site stats using YSlow and noticed a few things that might help and should be easy (in theory) to do: 1. Add expires headers: this means that browsers won't be constantly reloading files that aren't changed much like many of the graphics files and script files. Having an expiration date of about a week or two is often enough to drastically improve bandwidth. 2. Compress components with gzip (or deflate.) This is easy to do in IIS but I don't know how easy it is to do in Apache; I've only dabbled in Apache before.

::: It was on the todo list; and is now done. The primary cost of the server hosting is not in bandwidth, but is instead in memory and cpu usage. However, I want to try to keep all page serves under 500 ms. [[User:Briess|Briess]] 07:57, 24 September 2009 (UTC) | ::: It was on the todo list; and is now done.

To "verify" sometimes requires "more research", and sometimes that research is either obscure, time consuming, random, tedious or a combination of the above. Do we need it? Yeah. Are we excited about it?... <looks around>--[[User:Albedo|Albedo]] 23:24, 18 September 2009 (UTC) | To "verify" sometimes requires "more research", and sometimes that research is either obscure, time consuming, random, tedious or a combination of the above.

* True. Once I get a few upgraded wiki modules up though, I'll probably start cracking at it. [[User:Briess|Briess]] 23:29, 18 September 2009 (UTC) | * True.
