Fixing Media Temple + Coda Slow Uploads

And when I saw “slow”, I don’t mean like “takes twice as long as you might expect”, I mean like “two minutes per tiny little 2k image”.

I asked the Twitter hive-mind and totally got a fix that seems to be working:

Media Temple + Coda workaround: set Coda to SFTP in the sites prefs and enable SSH on MT!

So far, so good! And, really, I should have been using SFTP all along for such an important server.

   I’m on the grid too. Seems to work great for me. CSS-Tricks is on there plus maybe 25 other sites all on the same account. I do have an upgraded MySQL container though.
