TPF a LOT slower the last few weeks

Iron Flatline · May 21, 2007

Hi.

The Forum pages have had much longer load times in the last couple of weeks, whereas the rest of the web loads at the same pace.

I know there are myriad of reasons why something might be slow, but I thought I'd point it out - something to keep an eye on.

Thank you for mentioning this. We haven't gotten any server error messages AFAIK. Have you cleared your cache since noticing this?

I personally have not experienced any slow down. Has anyone else?

Iron Flatline · May 21, 2007

Yup, I have. Ok, I will keep an eye on it.

been working great from my end.

this, of course, tests only ping and packet loss issues. there may be db issues that cause it to load slowly, but i haven't had any problems w/them, either.

i have noticed a slow down as well, but ummm . . . that could have somthing to do with moving to thailand and being on a new network.

Sw1tchFX · May 21, 2007

been fine on my end too.

TwistMyArm · May 22, 2007

I hadn't noticed anything myself, but thanks for the heads up. Let us know if there are any trends (such as time of day) that you notice it happening or if it appears to just be consistently slow for you.

Alex_B · May 22, 2007

oh, just saw this thread now ... since a week or two it is often extremely slow... sometimes like 5 or 10% of what it used to be

... currently, today, it seems ok though
