server speed slower by comparsion
I am having a problem with an 8 GB ram and four CPU droplet with 62bit.
I am comparing the droplet to a server that is on godaddy.com also with four cpu but 16 GB ram and it is NOT SSD,
The load time on the same pages consistently are about 3 times faster on the godaddy server as on digitalocean.
I certainly like using digitalocean better, so I know there must be something I am doing that is causing this scenario.
Both the godaddy and droplet servers are using http compression.
Both the godaddy and droplet servers have he exact same files.
I tested the very same domain name on both the godaddy and droplet servers.
Both the godaddy and droplet servers are accessing the same MYSQL database on a third server.
Any ideas as to what would be making the dropet slower than the godaddy server?
Also, Both the godaddy and droplet servers are using DNSmadeEasy.com for the DNS.
