Post subject: Complete guide/ pack with tweaks for large forums(phpbb2)

Hi!
I have read Lanzers tweaks for large sites and installed some from phpbbdoctors blog. But im not shure if its optimized in the best way since Lanzers tricks are very old and i have a bunch of other mods like XS and other newer mods. How about making a complete guide? index, viewforum, viewtopic, search(!), memberlist aso. This may be a job for dog cow or drathbun. icon_wink.gif As i said i have studied your posts but could be nice to have them all in one pack. This must be my nr1 wish for phpbb2.

People have been talking about doing that basically ever since that topic was started, but no one has done it yet... It's a good summer project, though.

Lanzers? Is that the guy running Gaia Online?
I know that the guy running Gaia Online has a BIG thread on phpbb.com about optimizing the code.
They have 1,5 billion posts and are running on 80+ servers!

I dont like the look and feel of the Gaia Online forums, but they ARE fast.

Wait before you jump to that conclusion. The advice Lanzer gives is EXTREMELY helpful in speeding up a phpbb2 board. We have used many of his suggestions. Without them I would hate to think how the site would be running. At 83 pages, it would be helpful if someone would go in and make up a summary of all the GREAT advice given in that thread.
