We are on the same host, so what did you do to get GZip with Fluid as opposed to just using the vbulletin settings and... why is that better than just using the vB setting?

and you don't want to have both enabled, it wont be as efficient.
btw, when do you get on fluid ? did CM refer ya ? he is who told me about this host, I've been very happy with them.

Yep, chatted with CM and switched. Funny thing is that I followed your little Noob/Loser (said jokingly) thread as you asked nearly every question I would have over there on Fluid!!! ;)
So, I didn't have to sound clueless when I signed up, thanks to you!!!
Of course, I didn't have to, but still did!!!! LOL vBSetup Team vBulletin Owner vBSetup Owner |     | Join Date: Jul 2006 | Posts: 9,242 | Location: Topeka, KS | Re: vBulletin Optimisation Tips yup, I asked questions for a week or two b4 I signed up 
I hate moving sites, when I get a good host I'm with them for the long haul.
my last two host sucked it up and I lost money because when I would show clients my sites, they would be down  and the host had no explanation for it.. >
So far Fluid has been great, and the support they offer is outstanding ;)

I know pretty well the business, and giving support is hell, hence why I turned private... you have so many ... that want all, know nothing and expect all from provider for nothing..; and wile you try to help those out, others are waiting in queu for more valid reasons. And then keeping your server tight when half of them load crappy unsecure code.... hell of a time  vBSetup Team vBulletin Owner | |  | Join Date: Nov 2006 | Posts: 41 | Re: vBulletin Optimisation Tips Good post.
One thing I want to clarify is Quote: |
Posts can be "cached", meaning the server doesn't have to pull them from the database every time they are viewed.
| They are still pulled from the database (hence the cached posts table), but they don't have to be parsed (bbcode to html) again, which does save server load.

1. Store CSS StyleSheets as Files
By default, vBulletin will store the CSS of your pages as HTML within the head of the document. This, when taken over thousands of pages, can be quite a heavy burden.
Storing CSS Stylesheets as files will allow users/spiders to cache the CSS as a file, and make each page smaller, HTML wise, giving your server a bit of a breather.
To begin, ensure your forums/clientscript/vbulletin_css directory is chmod 777 so the stylesheet files can be created.
Next, in the AdminCP, select the vBulletin Options menu then vBulletin Options.
Select Style and Language Options.
Set "Store CSS Stylesheets as Files?" to Yes.
Click Submit.

I don't know why, but I'll CHMOD the folder and set to yes in acp and then the style gets messed up.
I've never seen anything in the log file, but then again, I've never looked.
