It is only slow it seems when there are over 100 users on at one time.
The traffic is very strong. The last time it was running good it had 20 visitors in less than 2 minutes.
It would not be too hard to set up a second server. I would transfer all the sites files over to the new one, then do whatever coding is needed, then eliminate the site files from the first server, leaving just the db there.
The hardest part, would be upgrading. I think there may be some bad scripting that is helping slow things down. I was told the version of IPB that it is currently using was never meant for extremely large forums. There has been at least 6 newer releases, all with tons of database tweaks, geared towards larger forums.
I have no BIN in mind, but I will not even think about selling it for less than $9k, as I have over that much into it.
