Way faster thanks Rob! One quick question you said the forum has a total of 6.79 gigs. I don't know anything about this but dont some ipods have 32gigs? Could all the information on this forum actually be loaded on to a ipod? I would think this forum would contain thousands and thousands of gigs

It's about processing power. Not space.

The iPod Touch has a 800 MHz Processor , 256 MB of RAM. That's not going to cut it..:D

Yep its all about processing power. Being able to run MySQL is the most important part. That is the program (part of the operating system) stores and accesses the database. Every time someone looks at a thread, creates a thread etc etc the database gets accessed. An iPod would melt down trying to run MySQL not to mention all the rest of it. Also the server is being access by lots of people at the same time not just one.

When I was importing the database here (520meg file) it took about 30 minutes to import. I thought I had crashed the server at first because I didn't think it was doing anything. Then realized that the sites I had moved onto the server already were still running but very slowly. An iPod would probably still be trying to do the import.
