RentVine Is Now Three Times Faster

Posted by Dave Dugdale  Published in General

I switched this RentVine.com site over to a dedicated server yesterday (from a shared server).

I ran all my speed tests this morning and on average most pages on the site load 3 times faster.

Actually the shared server was pretty fast before but the new server is even faster.

For example a typical state page used to take 47 milliseconds to load, now it take 15 milliseconds.

How does this relate to Rentals.com? Well, RentVine loads in milliseconds where Rentals.com takes seconds - 8 seconds in my last test!

Yes, I blow the doors off of Rentals.com. :)
