April 20, 201412 yr Commercial Member To AVSIM Staff,  Do you know that the main logo image here weights 87Kb? I mean this one. And these are the kilobytes server should serve on each page request. By converting this image to JPG (even with highest quality settings) you could reduce it's size 3 times down to about 25Kb without any noticeable visual difference.  Not it will save AVSIM servers from overload, but there could be some other similar miss-optimizations. ...and one more thing: Looks strange and VERY suspicious. Do not open the link below without some virus barrier! Note the word 'toxic' here. The screenshot is made right on THIS page. And it's a link to this page: http://forum.avsim.net/amokhold.php Artem Crum, EASA PPL•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••LINDA → Lua Integrated Non-complex Device Assigning•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

It is part of our continuing effort to keep them off of AVSIM and to protect you. And yes, we are constantly looking to refine our output loading.

We all need AVSIM up and healthy. :good: Artem Crum, EASA PPL•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••LINDA → Lua Integrated Non-complex Device Assigning•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
