Thanks to the gracious support staff from our hosting provider, Arvixe I think we're squeezing as much performance out of this little old host as I can hope for. We now have several aggressive caching strategies activated, and the site is very responsive most of the time. Anibit does get hit with a lot of spam attempts, and I'm proud to say they have a 0% success rate in the past year that the site has been operational. It does mean that a plurality of server CPU time goes to serving pages to bots. We don't currently have any ip address filtering, but that may be something I'll consider in the future.

Thanks for the patience, and if you notice problems with the site contact us here, or shoot an email to anibit@anibit.com

You can always help us get closer to being able to afford a dedicated host by supporting us! :)
