I think you’ve hit the nail on the head here Richard. David does an admirable job managing the on-rev servers considering how hammered they are. FWIW I recently moved my domains over to an Ubuntu 14.04 LTS VPS at Linode and have been very happy with what they offer. Quite a bit more hands on than on-rev but definitely worth the setup time. SSD too which is nice ;-) Cheers Monte _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
