This should greatly improve forums speeds in every way, and the lessen the load on the main site server. In order to keep our user experience high, we had another server (with a SSD drive) implemented just to handle our forums' MySQL database. This has caused, as you may have noticed, a significant slowdown when accessing and browsing our forums. Due to the recent surge of traffic to both our web site and forums, we have outgrown our current single server.
