Hello folks.
Last weekend we started using a CDN (Content Delivery Network) to serve our static content (mainly CSS and images).
The CDN provider we are using (www.maxcdn.com) has servers around the U.S. and Europe. We are seeing a balance between content being served from Los Angeles (mainly New Zealand and U.S. visitors) and Amsterdam (European visitors).
We still serve our pages from our local server, and use the CDN for its best distribution, and reduced traffic on our server.
Even though we moved this, you should actually notice a small improvement in speed. We are now using a cookieless domain for assets (CSS and images), have less network traffic in our main server, and tweaked the Aptimize configuration even more.
In the future we will be working on serving New Zealand visitors from our local server hosted at Datacom.
If you find any problems with the new configuration please let us know here.
