Database Performance Tweaks.. 3/27/2020: We will be migrating the Database over to a new NVME based storage backend to increase site performance, please be patient while we complete this work. This can take upwards of 20+ hours to dump / scrub the database and reimport into MySQL. Additionally we are upgrading to version 8.0 and prepping for the 5.6.0 upgrade. We apologize for the poor performance. VBulletin support has been basically worthless and taking months to respond to tickets, calls go unanswered and we are basically moving forward via trial and error (while throwing hardware and additional expense at the problem to improve performance) --James
