    Notice any slowness or lag in the game.

    We are getting a TON of new traffic to FRHD today (started late last night). So we have had to shift focus to improving DB queries etc. Which means "Skip track for coins" for campaign and new campaign tracks will have to wait until later in the week, site performance comes first!

    You may notice some things like the leaderboard loading after the page loads, this is to help with perceived times as we work on tricky queries like the leaderboard.

    What I have noticed that if I upload a new track it takes like 5 mins for it to show up on the Newest Section. Otherwise everything is great!!!

    That is just from caching, we cache those lists for 5-min to save reads on the db's

    Kind of cool isn't it :)

    That is what we like to hear, seeing realtime actives climb but performance remain steady.

    Lots of traffic? So, the community is growing like crazy? YAY :D
    Everything is super smooth for me too. I just got a new Android phone, so now I get to mess around in mobile version of the site too. Smooth as ever over there too!

    I get alot of lag sometimes during the game (almost 20sec on occations) and the track will sometimes take a few mintes to load. This maybe because my internet is sometimes scratchy (at school) but i have pretty good internet at home and i still sometimes get lag their. This may also be due to the graphics card in one of my computers being terrible even though the CPU is excellent. I do notice that the computer that has better GPU will run alot smoother than the one with good CPU. But on the whole it think these are just my problems and have nothing to do with the website. :thumbsup:

    You weren't kidding about getting a lot of traffic Eric. Look! The campaign tracks have the most plays now. They are soon going to pass up that one track! Screen Shot 2014-10-08 at 7.44.48 AM.png

    Loading tracks takes a bit longer than usual for me, but other than that it's working great.

    Holy ****, my campaign tracks went from a comment a week to a comment every hour the past few days, how did this happen Eric ? Did you guys do some advertising or what?

    OMG
    I went from 150k plays on my Loopy Caves to 260k in a few days xD
    EDIT: And it's about time the first track in the campaign has more plays than the second.. That didn't make any sense for the longest time Dx

    Ya, that is due to us having 2 unlocked tracks. That will change to 1 after the skip for coins is released so that people will be more inclined to go down 1 single path.

    Ya I figured that..
    Do you guys have any statistics on how much of an increase in activity FRHD received? If so, could you tell us? I'm really curious :3
    Also, where did the activity come from? Advertising I'm assuming, but where were you advertising?
