Mark Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 Anyone say why it is slow :dunno: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jessie The Jeep Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 The pages have been quite slow to load for me too. Certainly compared to many of the other sites and forums I visit. What is the bandwidth on the new site host, and are we sharing with many others? Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marmite!! Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 Anyone say why it is slow :dunno: I asked that a while back & I was told it's fine... was never this slow on the old site :dunno: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cripp Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 Slow and laggy for me too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArtistsRifles Posted April 27, 2007 Share Posted April 27, 2007 Up until the last couple of days it was fine for me - but certainly within the last 48 hours it's been slowing down noticeably - even on the T1 lan here at work....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joris Posted April 27, 2007 Author Share Posted April 27, 2007 I'm a frequent visitor here too (duh) but I really experience no lag at all. The site looks even faster then it was! What you need to bear in mind, this is a database powered website, which takes longer to load then a non-database powered website. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArtistsRifles Posted April 27, 2007 Share Posted April 27, 2007 Should hope so Joris :-) Seriously though, response times have increased noticeably here over the last couple of days - maybe it's because the site is busier now and the DB transaction process could do with a spot of tuning?? Also - I've noticed a few times that new posts are going on threads without the "new" flag appearing by the topic title - it happened to this when you replied above!! Any thoughts sir???

Joris Posted April 27, 2007 Author Share Posted April 27, 2007 That is a bug that occurs when replies are made fairly fast after each other. Happens to me too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArtistsRifles Posted April 27, 2007 Share Posted April 27, 2007 OK - as long as it's something you're aware off :-) :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joris Posted April 29, 2007 Author Share Posted April 29, 2007 I know what causes the wrong names in the PMs too, tried to fix it but not sure if I succeeded. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fv1609 Posted April 29, 2007 Share Posted April 29, 2007 I know what causes the wrong names in the PMs too, tried to fix it but not sure if I succeeded. Joris, I have just sent a PM to myself. I followed the email link back & gave me the reply form but it was addressed to "fab" rather than "fv1620" It's not a major problem I have just learnt to ignore the link & go into the forum. The other thing is that the PM content gets displayed in the email. Is there a way of me turning that off so it can only be read by going in via the forum itself?

Joris Posted April 29, 2007 Author Share Posted April 29, 2007 Yeah you can change that in the profile settings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fv1609 Posted April 29, 2007 Share Posted April 29, 2007 Yeah you can change that in the profile settings. Yes the 4th box "When sending notification of a reply to a topic, send the post in the email" But the box is unticked so I shouldn't be it passed on in the email I would have thought?

Joris Posted April 30, 2007 Author Share Posted April 30, 2007 I'll look into it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joris Posted May 3, 2007 Author Share Posted May 3, 2007 Please post here the time when you experience a slow site, I can report it back to the server administrators. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cripp Posted May 3, 2007 Share Posted May 3, 2007 I looked in earlier on and was pleased that it seemed back up to speed. Now its real sloooooooooow again. :dunno: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Posted May 4, 2007 Share Posted May 4, 2007 10:00 - 12:00 and 17:00 it was nearly dead :evil: We will get this sorted folks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Posted May 4, 2007 Share Posted May 4, 2007 At this moment in time it is very quick. :dunno: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cripp Posted May 4, 2007 Share Posted May 4, 2007 Not for me :dunno: Edit: it's just got quick......ish Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fv1609 Posted May 4, 2007 Share Posted May 4, 2007 At this moment in time it is very quick. :dunno: Yes I agree but this is in the morning of a weekday, everything is that much faster. Apart from sites themselves, on a non school holiday morning my broadband can be as fast as 5.9mbs but a weekend evening it can go down to half that. So it's fairly ok for me but the new forum is always the slowest site I go to. Are there too many fancy bits bolted on now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joris Posted May 15, 2007 Author Share Posted May 15, 2007 We changed something and it seems to be lightning fast at the moment! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paddington Posted May 15, 2007 Share Posted May 15, 2007 Out here in the Welsh borders everythings slow :whistle:,we can only muster 1mb on broadband on a good day with the little bloke in the local exchange pedalling as fast as his little legs will go :nut:can anyone help?
