FloorWizard Gets a New Server
February 16, 2006
Today, FloorSoft replaced their FloorWizard server with a new, much, much more powerful server. This new machine and supporting software upgrades will easily support our expanding customer-base well into the future. Additionally, the faster processor will result in improved load and save times.
Controlled tests have shown the following performance improvements:
| Old HP Server | New Dell Server | % Change | |
| 1. Average time to prepare document for printing (Project Center) | 26 sec | 23 sec | -11.5% |
| 2. Load drawing applet while on-line (existing project) | 32 sec | 26 sec | -18.8% |
| 3. Save estimation data while on-line (existing project)** | 107 sec | 21 sec | -80.4% |
| 4. Check out a project | 36 sec | 29 sec | -19.5% |
| 5. Check in a project | 112 sec | 95 sec | -15.2% |
**: Other changes to the save routine resulted in the majority of this improvement
