Excellent

I'm just playing about with the Google Analytics code, as where XF insert it originally, it's causing a delay with the header being generated. Google recommends putting it before the </body> tags, so I've created a custom template and I'm also hosting the javascript locally and serving it via out own CDN.

This is a good comparison between the old and new servers!

The sitemap I generate for the shop. The only difference is the server (which is actually set up exactly the same software wise)

Before: 34.7 minutes
Now: 14.38 minutes

Notice quite a difference on the site when using a mobile.
