Xinil said: Admin? I love you :3 can you be President of the United States? I'll fund your campaign in Mario Coin lolLast week, as many of you probably have noticed, MAL received a huge server hardware upgrade. We also changed our MySQL databases to Innodb. This puts us on a path to sustainability for the short-mid future. We're looking at more options to make sure we stay ahead of the performance problems. I know this has been an extremely long time coming, and I deeply apologize for the delays in getting these much needed hardware changes done. One down side to switching to Innodb is our lack of fulltext indexing. Thus, we had to lose search in the forums. We're planning on adding it back in once we're able to implement an efficient solution. I don't have an estimate on when it will be back. User anime/manga, signature, and series stats should now running without issue now as well. I've added a prioritization queue, so if the server is inundated with stat requests, the person who has waited longest will get updated first. Sorry for the delayed announcement. I wanted to post when we made the server changes, but we wanted to monitor performance first. Expect some more bug fixes and enhancements in the near future. Now that our performances issues are largely resolved (for now), I can focus on the ridiculously growing/embarrassing bug/feature request list. |

| I'm another person who is feeling the loss of the Search feature. If it's at the cost of not waiting literally 26 hours for my list to update....fuck. I can't really complain. But it would be loved if it could come back in some form or another one day. EDIT: And not having my posts "Not existing" for a few hours. Thats another bonus. |

| Amazing job, now this working well ^^ |
 |
| Does this mean we can have club mass messaging back now? I know of a few clubs which would become much more active if it returned. Thanks for the fixes you have already done. I appreciate it. |

| The performance issues were so disturbing that I was about to leave this community. It's working pretty good now. It's great to have a working MAL back. Good job! |
| And slowly, you come to realize... It's all as it should be... |
| Thanks for the update! I was scared that MAL would get all laggy again cause it just suddenly got faster one day. xD |
 |
| Great news in a long time. Emphasis on long time. |
| Thanks for the updates I've been waiting for them for a long time..even though I noticed this recently that my list has been updating more efficiently. Thanks for the hard work |
 |
| should toss in a google search widget in the meantime for the forum (unless our traffic is already high enough that we'd cost money?). but good stuff, glad to hear it's things are moving along. |
| Everything seems to be running really fast for me so far. Good job guys ^^ |
 |
| Thanks, I'm glad that the site is updating fast now and I can see my stats. :) Though I hope the inbox problem is gonna be fixed soon.^^ |
 |
| Praise to the anime gods. |
 |
| <3 Thanks. And please don't apologize. Your doing us a service, it is not the other way around. |
| Signature removed. Please follow the signature rules, as defined in the Site & Forum Guidelines. |
| Awesome. Thank you good sir! |
 |
| Great stuff, works great. I notice a huge significant change to updating entries now in my MAL database. |
  |
| Thanks for the update, Xinil. MAL is such a useful website and the speed boost has really helped make it feel polished again. |

| Thank you ! |

| Thank you for your hardwork! i'm thankful to see my anime stats to be updated much better now! :) |
   |
| I think they should delete the x-rated pages to make the site more faster. This is MyAnimeList, not My*****List. Just my opinion. |
 |
| Thank you so much. Seems to be working almost perfectly. Updates basically instantly. Better than I have probably ever seen it, so thanks again. I love the site and it's nice to have it working properly. |
| よ！僕はジェフです。エンジニアです。日本語が下手です。もっと勉強しなきゃいけない！ |
| Thanks Xinil. MAL was petty slow now it has been improved a lot. Thank you. |
 |
| Speak o the devil, the lag time was really becoming an eyesore, |
  |
| thanks to all staff members! |
 |
| there's still hope lol |
 |
| This is great! Thanks Xinil :D |
 |
| Thanks a lot! It was bothering me to find posts from 12 hours before lol but now it's brilliant! |
| Thanks for the update the site performance has improved allot because of it. The search function for the forum not working is something i can live with it might be a bit bothersome at times but that the Myanimelist is running perfect again is great. |
| Thank you so much! Keep up the good work! |
  |
| Thank you for the fix! My anime stats are in your debt :D |
 |
| GREAT!!! no more lag... bye-bye... |
     |
| Thank you so much for fixing the lag! Everything runs so smoothly now, it's so much better! Thank you! :) |
   |
| @Xinil Thanks! The only complaint I had about the site was the slow updating of the forums and profile preferences. Thanks for the update and the fixes! |
