Vroom! Vroom! Vroom! Guild Launch CDN Activated!
Today we have activated the Guild Launch Content Delivery Network. The Content Delivery Network places the most requested content on servers in 18 locations across 4 continents. Including:
North America
--------------------------
Los Angeles
San Jose
Seattle
Chicago
Dallas
Atlanta
Ashburn (Virginia)
New York
Europe
--------------------------
London
Paris
Frankfurt

What does this mean for you? It means your site is faster, faster and faster. Page creation times across 90% of our pages are under 1/10th of a second, but if you're hitting the site with an empty cache or need to get a new CSS file there are physical limits to how fast that info can be transferred. Using the CDN these files will now more often come from a server much nearer to you. The end result is much faster load times and a smoother experience, especially for those of you not in North America.
Vroom, Vroom, Vroom! Enjoy!

p.s. If you see an issues with content not loading, please let us know. Everything should be solid though, we've been testing this behind the scenes for a while.
