Its probably more about costs for both sides. I doubt that EY is _slow_ without regard to cost. Just that instead of rewritting GitHub's web app to deal with inherent performance issues, it makes more sense to throw more hardware at the problem. There does come a point where owning more of your server stack makes more financial sense.
- fnid 17y agoIt is going to be interesting to see how the performance of Github and their freemium offering changes when they start paying for infrastructure somewhere else. Unless they can smooth talk another host into giving them free infrastructure.
- jhancock 17y agoBased on replies from my support queries about performance, they are aware that paying customers expect better/more-consistent performance than what we've had of late.
