The table will lock to process each batch of changes and you will wait that much, even on a powerful dedicated server with 12 cores and 3.5 ghz speed and using SSD drives

Right, and any modification that adds columns to a table is going to lock the table while those columns are added. As others have stated it shouldn't take that long even with that many users, especially with that much hardware. Something with your mysql configuration isn't optimal or needs to be adjusted.

Also, do you mean 2.5mhz? Intel E5 processors? Not that it matters, that's still a lot of processing power.

Anyway, I have a feeling this new vbSEO management has something to do Juan's sister: http://admin-talk.com/threads/dear-v...rations.43684/

Umm.. how is what happened not treating their members badly? The family dispute had nothing to do with the product continuing to be sold with no support, and then the site just closing without notice. People were being strung along for an update for months. Sales were in decline, Juan jumped ship with customers still on board.
