See Dee N take 3


We’re on our 3rd CDN trial, again as noted this is focused on improving the site image load performance time. As usual testing was done before flipping the switch on. Our particular interest is if European users are seeing faster page loading time with this feature. Please comment with your feedback.

Per the last trial, we have for some time now implemented a number of well-known tricks to optimize image delivery. This includes spreading the load between four hostnames, as mentioned by commenter dweazy – along with proper cache HTTP response headers, stripping JPG metadata comments.

    Is this anything to do with my awful dowmload speeds from VB at the moment?? I am currently downloading a scene at 16KB/sec – which is pretty awful to say the least!! I can normally download at 100KB/sec which is still crap, but more acceptable than 16!!

    Dear Matt

    Nice to hear that you are taking good care of your European subscribers. – Very much appreciated. I am happy to report a noticable improvement in page loading time.

    Downloads are, however, still quite slow. I only get a speed of about 0.93 MB/s which is a bit frustrating (I have an 8 Mbit connection).

    Keep up the good geekery!

    Wow, I don’t know what you guys did but this is the first time that I have been able to view the blog in a couple of months. The blog was timing out on me before. I didn’t mention it because… well… I could still download videos. ;)

    Okay, if publishing ANAL LOLITAS, BEST OF PRIVATE has anything to do with your testing, KEEP IT UP! That series ROCKS. Thanks guys, you just made up for all the shitty BDSM, Tranny and midget vids in one fell swoop!
