Hi,
If you haven't been here in a while, it may seem faster because we added mod_gzip to our server, so all html pages are compressed. This means a 60k forum page, only takes 5k worth of bandwidth to download, and if you are on dialup, it shows up much faster.
They are both using MySQL, so that's not the case. We haven't done benchmarks yet to see the performance difference.
As to load, it depends on the size of your forum. I would recommend using mod_perl or SpeedyCGI if you have a heavy forum, and up to 256 megs of memory.
Cheers,
Alex
