Knox'd now running on WebFaction

Most of the Web should be seeing the new and improved Knox'd now. The DNS was switched yesterday from Dreamhost, the previous Web host, to WebFaction.

The reason for the switch was due to an increasing number of 404 and 500 errors due to the Django processes being killed by Dreamhost -- their hosting just isn't adequate for most Django applications.

I'm experimenting with some new caching methods for Knox'd to improve the speed and stability on the new host. These include file caching and memcached.

Please post a comment here or use the contact form if you spot a problem with the site.

Also, if you are thinking of switching to, or using WebFaction for your Web hosting please use our affiliate link. Knox'd thanks you!
