Faster Site? I hope so

Last night we finally shut the server down and got to the maintenance I discussed this week.  The server is now running with another 2 gigs of beefy RAM.  It should, in theory, be running a lot faster so I hope it's noticeable to you all.  For me, Im seeing at least 2 seconds cut of the page generation for the forums which is much better then I expected.  Thanks again for your patience and hopefully with latest upgrade will be enough to hold off the masses for another couple months or so.

@TANK \r \r The next step would basically be a cluster at this point. We are already running on a dedicated server at over 3.0Ghz dual core and 5gigs of Ram.
