this is a crazy fast site! can you share what you are using to host and serve it?

AWS/nginx on a fairly minimal instance. speed probably comes from:

- it's an SPA, so it's mostly just doing API calls.

- the database is designed to be fast at a few orders of magnitude of size beyond its current state

- everything is gzipped

And no ads, unlike pretty much every other free site with recipes!
