they have a guy on staff there that knows xenForo so that's a plus.
Hmm, I think I may know what to look at now!

Okay I just updated my last post with GMetrix and Pingdom scores as well. http://xenforo.com/community/threads/shared-hosts-optimized-for-xenforo.32268/page-2#post-472279
I can easily raise my score by implenting Cloudflare as a CDN, but all Cloudflare seems to do is slow the site down or make it go offline at times. That's been my experience on both URLJet and MDD, even after I had them investigate each time. I gave up on Cloudflare.Nice, thank you for this. Besides MDD, I would love to see a comparison of xFshowcase on my server vs a forum at other known forum hosts too like Site Ground and URLjet.

Thanks. My site has 30 posts per page unlike XFShowcase however, so I had to actually hunt down a thread that had exactly 20 posts on my site because on XFShowcase, its set to 20 posts per page. I tried to search for pages that were almost the same content-wise or else it wouldn't have been fair. Threads with large images, videos or more messages throw off scores. I couldn't even use the 'What's New' page because my What's New page had way more threads. I didn't use the Member's page either because I'm using Chris Deemings addon that lets you increase the number of latest members and most popular posters.Yeap, the current is great and more fair though as xFshowcase is not using a CDN either, so it shows the true performance boost of it vs your site hosted at MDD
