Entry CC+ Blog

If you've noticed a speed boost recently here on Calorie Count Plus, it's no accident!

Last week, we upgraded our servers and rewrote a whole bunch of code which should make pages load within the blink of an eye.

  • Pages are now compressed before being transmitted to your web browser (where they are uncompressed and made visible to you). This seriously reduces the amount of data that needs to be sent and thus makes pages load much quicker Smile
  • We've overhauled code in our most popular features - our internal site search engine and the item nutrition pages.
  • Server based caching has been optimized to ensure your requests get processed immediately.

As always, please let us know if you experience any problems with these upgrades!

PS> We've had a lot of requests for an updated CC+ toolbar, ticker, and clearer calorie coach (thumbs up/down). We've prioritized these items and are working as fast as possible to have them available!

"Flashy" advertsing

I find the "flashy" advertising irritating.  I like the old site better.
