Beyond watching movies (lots!), I haven’t done anything substantial this weekend.

That said, I’ve spent a bunch of time optimizing the database on my webserver. I’m going to be launching some blogs over the next few days and I didn’t want to just dump all the tables into the same database – as I have been doing up until now. It hasn’t been much of a problem, but I’ve been starting to see some slight performance hits and I wanted to clean it up before I became a real PITA.

Now all of the various sites have their own database and tables have migrated over to it – which is just nicer for an admin perspective and helps streamline things a bit.

All I have to do now is make some changes to my backup scripts – since they’re all set up to expect a single database to backup instead of multiple ones. Shouldn’t be hard – but it’s just another thing to do. Good thing it’s still early.

While it’s stuff that doesn’t affect anyone but me and stuff that nobody would ever notice, it’s all good to get done.
