Database server upgrade

[forhire]

Over the past 24 hours we have been slowly migrating our databases to a new database server. At just before midnight we completed all our core transfers. The new database server is clocking in at nearly 40 times faster than our old server.

For you motor heads here are some specs:
Dual AMD Opteron 246 processors running 64 bit code
4 gigs of ram
4 ultra 320 scsi hard drives

Not bad for a budget minded database server

Our old server wasn't bad (uptime currently is 452 days) is was just old and over worked. This is like going from a bicycle to a airplane.
