I just have a knowladge of how things work, I arent saying there are no one else that does know what they are talking about, but I can guarentee that most people in this tread talking about engine redesignes and server overhauls got thier information off wikipiedia, then came in here.

If i worked for SE on the servers and network infrastructure I would launch a range of network monetoring software to find the bottlenecks in both the routed infrastructure and servers to suggest upgrades or changes to protocols that are used to increase performance of they systems, for example if one router is nearing its limits and another is barely used, why is that?, so I would change the cost of the interfaces so the routers would load balance better, I would store configs on a tftp server so when devices were changed it would take less than a minute to configure them.

Lets see suggestions from all the other "experts" in this thread rather than saying that everything is crap, lets help SE fix it is everyone is apparently experts.

My suggestion could reduce latency hugely if devices arent properly load ballancing for some reason.
