[arm-allstar] Stats server update

Hi Everyone,

The stats server is running again, as many have noticed. There was a 
network outage with the hosting provider, earlier.

Also, while performing a system check-out, we found that the server is 
experiencing some periodic overloading issues, due to the constantly 
increasing number of AllStar users....More users is a good thing!! 

We've made some minor changes with the stats server software to maximize 
performance and minimize wasted CPU cycles. As such, there are some minor 
changes on the main and other web pages. One change is that the global 
bubble map, which was at the top of the main stats page, had been taken 
down. That image take a lot of compute time to generate and is now so big 
that's it's probably not too useful.

A server upgrade is now scheduled to better meet the increasing future
performance needs.

Thanks for your support!

73, David KB4FXC
