Missing posts?
Simon - 10/12/08 at 01:33 AM

Being a bit sad, I got all excited a couple of weeks ago when I got to 4000 posts.

I seem to have a lost a few! Have they been abducted, should I be worried?

Don't worry Guys and Gals,

Nowt to fret about.......

Chrisw did a prune of very old posts in the 'For Sale' section, in order to try and speed up the site at peak times.... I think it needs a bit more, but it was a tad better yesterday.

I dont know, you would be supprised.
- Pure data (text) is supprisingly small to store.
- We have a forum that proberbly a simular size, and the gallery (which is far smaller than the photo archive here) is large compaired to the whole of the rest of the database.

I was talking to one of the DBA's for vodaphone every call is an entry on its oracle DB I forget the figures but it was measured in TB's .

I agree text is small but I would take a guess that thesre is quite alot on LB it has been going for a good few years.

John Bonnett - 10/12/08 at 02:39 PM

Dear oh dear oh dear

What are you lot like?!?!

We try and speed the site up a bit by getting rid of old rubbish...and still you moan!

The only stuff that has gone are 'For Sale' posts/replies over 12 months old.......

I can't believe that some of you know the exact amount of posts you have..... don't you guys know by now, that it's 'quality, not quantity' that counts!



Fozzie


blakep82 - 10/12/08 at 11:01 PM

blakep82 - 10/12/08 at 11:01 PM
