Currently contracting in the PHP/Admin/Scaling space in London, UK (or telecommuting). If you have a problems with a slow LAMP-based website, I may well be able to help, and have already done so with a number of other startups.

I'm PHP developer, that loves to keep up with technology and write some really elegant software code to help my sites handle mid-to large scale and many users.

In 2011, worked at http://peerindex.net - designed to help you understand and benefit from your social and reputation capital online. November, I left to spend some time learning, and relaxing.

In 2010, I was at Binweevils and I helped them grow and optimise their systems to be able to serve (so far) at least double the previous record of members online on a regular basis, and setup so that doubling again is not only possible, but easy to set in place. Not easy when you are dealing with literally thousands of concurrent users playing online.

comment Virtualbox networking for development, connecting from the host, and local network
I've fixed the problem of being able to get out from the VM to the rest of the internetnet - a route command showed two gateways listed, one per eth port. Removing both, then adding the wired network back in, enabled it. I don't know how it would fare if running only on wifi however. That is still the crux of the question.
