IT BLENDS!

IT BLENDS.

It is one thing to have code working with a database that's only about 10 megabytes in size and has roughly 1500 characters and a whole 'nother mess of worms to deal with a database that's over 370 megabytes in size and has roughly 18,000 characters.

But the initial migration tests have gone smoothly (well. I ran out of HeapSpace at one point.)

Here's something neat:

Nexus War version 1.4 (the current live version) takes FOREVER to start up.

INFO: Server startup in 1320377 ms

That's a 22 minute start up time.

Straylight, the new version that I've been working on, with the same dataset:

INFO: Server startup in 123123 ms

2.05 minutes.

That's an. . . uhm, 11,000% increase in startup performance.

Plus, the pattern freak in me enjoys that it's 123, 123. Harh.

pony up. you didnt make that kinda magic happen with "tweaks". this reeks of a major backend overhaul, and Im too nerdy not to press for more details.

Oh, yeah. The whole back-end overhaul thing has been in progress for some time. It's a huge set of changes.

A lot of the startup stuff is mostly about re-ordering things, and doing stuff in batch.
