Moved from Sourceforge to Google Code

Friday, December 04, 2009 by Carsten Hufe  

Today I moved from Sourceforge to Google Code, because I'm fed up with SourceForge:

  • It has an unbelievable slow Subversion server
  • The pages are confusing and overloaded.
  • The statistics are not reliable.

So I moved to Google Code. Furthermore Google Code provides an excellent issue tracker.

Devproof is running on a small vServer

Monday, July 06, 2009 by Carsten Hufe  

By the way Devproof is running on a small vServer with 512 MB of RAM. Actually the vServer is allocating 300 MB of RAM. The Tomcat process is using 180 MB (including Devproof Portal). The vServer is hosted at netcup.de, the best vServer provider on the internet. They provide excellent support for their great vServer.

Now there are new vServer with more performance available.
