Hi folks

I just noticed that a couple of people mentioned poor forum performance recently. For me, it was awful over the weekend but then picked up on Monday, and our theory was that it might be due to some out of control bot behaviour that vometia had observed evidence of as an admin, but which seemed to have died down.

But it sounds as though some people are still having issues.

Can you let me know here if you're experiencing poorer than usual performance of these forums, and if it looks as though it's widespread then I'll see if someone can do a bit more digging to work out why.

Cheers!

It was terrible for a few days, but I haven't had much trouble today

Yes I wrote a pretty long response to a thread a few days ago only to have it flee to the ethereal plane.

About 2 - 3 hours ago it was going pretty crazy. Now it seems to be okay.

It’s been bad on and off for me for longer than just a few days. At least a week. The website takes quite a while to load initially now, and some features like trying to quote are extremely sluggish. Seems to be working fine at the moment.

Thanks, folks. I’ll ask if there’s anything that can be done about performance.

I guess traffic might have been up a few hours ago as a result of the new trailer, but this is still a relatively quiet corner of the internet so I’d be surprised if that were enough to bring things to a crawl! And it doesn’t explain the slow load times a few days ago anyway.

Forum lag seems to be pretty inconsistent. One time everything works fine and one hour from there nothing is working at all.

I've mentioned to our admin, vometia, who says she'll have a word and see if someone could take a proper look at what's going on.

Performance is terrible for me again today after having been okay when I've logged on over the past few days. I know these forums tend to be a bit janky anyway, but it's seemed even worse than usual over the past week

This morning it’s being janky for me too.

Edit: very janky.

Cheers. Perhaps if we can pinpoint when the forum is at its worst someone will be able to identify some sort of pattern.

There were a few days, I was not able to load the side at all, don't know, if it has to do with this problem or if it is something on my end.

Was very slow this morning (GMT). Also could not log in as my VPN ip was on some banned list. Never had that problem before. Possibly the two are related?

I’ll pass on the possible connection with VPN issues. Cheers!

Forum has been inaccessible for about half an hour. Just got an error page. Seems better now.
