Powerful new server now in use

Dear lichessers,

This morning I've been finalizing the migration to the new home of lichess. It went very well, and most of you probably didn't experience any service interruption.

Here are some stats about the new server:

- CPU: Intel XeonE5-1620v2 4c/8t 3,7 GHz+/3,9 GHz+
- RAM: 64 Go DDR3 ECC 1600MHz
- STORAGE: 3x 160Go SSD Intel DC S3500 SATA3 6Gbps
- BANDWIDTH: 1 Gbps with DDoS protection
- SOFTWARE: Ubuntu Server 14.04 LTS, mongodb 2.6.

It's very, very good. We can now scale to a lot of players, so bring it on!

I was able to make this upgrade because the donations went well. Lichess server costs are now $183 per month (was $170 before the change). I know we can cope with that!

Have great games,
Thibault
