Slow posting

Post by Bachus »

Maybe its me, but its getting slower and slower when posting new threads or reactions to posts on the forum.. Looks like a backend issue to me

Try it now, and let me know what you think after a few days review.

It seems to take ages for me as well, maybe 60 seconds or so.

I find sometimes it takes seconds, sometimes I just give up. Bit other sites are like that as well.

Might not help being on pitifully slow broadband of course :roll: - one of the (few) drawbacks of living on darkest, Westest Wales :) .

It's all going really fast now, super speedy.

Whatever it is that you have done it's a wonder!

Viewing is good ... Submitting a new post is very slow. Sometimes seems like it doesn't work. But preview is pretty fast.

It's going to vary somewhat based on the number of users currently online and what they are doing at any given movement in time. Seems people like to run a lot of searches.

There's also from time to time robots scanning the entire database. IP's from China for example seem to rip though the forum content.

Also, midnight GMT every night, there's a full database backup that will cause everything to stop dead for about 3 minutes while the backup runs.

Will still keep an eye on things though. I need some time on the forum myself to gauge things. My workload is totally mental right now and I've not even replied to any other thread in the last few days than this one so bear with me.

Regards
Sharp.

Post times very slow again. Close to a minute. Viewing is fine. Very odd.
