Earlier this week I mentioned Elcom had moved everything over to 2008 (that is, our product – Community Manager.NET – is now targeting .NET 3.5 in Visual Studio 2008, and our site is running on Windows Server 2008 with SQL Server 2008 on the back end).
Initial thoughts were that the site was running a bit quicker. Turns out we were wrong. The site is actually running a lot quicker.
One of our techies, Alan Lee, set up a testing environment so that we could start measuring the performance improvements. You can check out his method here, and his results here. This is only the start of his testing mind you, and there are a few caveats to note (in regard to CPU usage).
But the results are stunning.
Bottom line: The Elcom site is now running over 5 times faster.
