Forum speed

Hello,

I've 2 websites using Xenforo. (for example www.goochelaars.com )
Very happy with the software, but the speed isn't as good as here on xenforo.com
I'm using shared hosting and I think that my provider is the problem.
I"m looking for a good website to do some tests, so I can go back to my provider and show them the results. Any tips ?
 
Doing a traceroute shows no issues, doing a ping from 3 different providers shows no issues (incidental spike from 8ms to 21ms but that's it).

I suspect the server load being more than it should be .. You could test this with a script like loadCheck.php in your public_html directory, with content:
PHP:
<?php
$uptime = shell_exec(“uptime”);
echo “$uptime”;
(note that this script wont run if the server runs in safe_mode on)
but worth a try.
 
You could test this with a script like loadCheck.php in your public_html directory, with content:

On our host, the script won't run because shell_exec needs to run as a logged in user, as opposed to user "nobody" on Apache. Not sure how true this is at other hosts, though. Just in case someone tries to use this.
