Slow
« on: July 16, 2011, 18:20:19 pm »
Is it just me or is it awfully slow these last 2 days?

 Could be my PC about to pack in but it does seem to be BW moreso than other sites such as FB or yahoo.

Me!  A few times it has not loaded properly and I think I'm going to get that error message but then it loads.

mmm... maybe silly, but did you notice that all of you who are having the problem are moderators? I don't know if you are using a slight different version than the rest of us.

Yes it's still slow today. It could be my end though but not experiencing other sites to be as slow as here.  :-\

Mine seems to be better again; at least, it's not as bad as it was over the weekend.

SO slow tonight.  I've been copying posts before posting as it is so slow in posting and needing to refresh to try again.

Anyone else or is it me?

I'm going to set up some monitoring so I can see if anything is slowing down on the server when people report it is slow. I will let you know when it's ready.

edit: Wow, that was slow for me too, but I can't get to the server to do anything right now...

Unfortunately, I can't use any points of reference until I set up the monitoring, but please continue to report if you feel like it. Other than that one time earlier, it's been very snappy for me...

Really bad here.  In fact twice in the last 10 minutes I have got this:

Connection Problems
Sorry, SMF was unable to connect to the database. This may be caused by the server being busy. Please try again later.

Someone posted a thread in the Lounge yesterday about how we have several thousand new members in the last few months... could this be connected somehow? Just wondering.

It is touch and go for me here. Sometimes it is fast, and other times it is reeaaally slow. I haven't gotten any 'connection problem' errors, though.

It was crazy slow for me this AM (around 7:30 am US CST).  Then, it went right back to being super fast :)

It's fine again now, but yeah... this morning it was crazy slow so I left the page to check my FB. When I tried to get back on BW again, I got the "oops, can't connect" message. I got on about an hr later no problem, though.
