Slow loading of forum

Must be because I'm upside down.... it's fine here!

It's intermittently slow (it took 16 seconds just now between hitting 'reply' and the text box window opening). It's more like it is being slow to resolve the dns rather than a slow database issue. At other times it works fine.

Definitely a lot slower today than normal. Yesterday was not too good either, but today is extremely slow

Bealman · September 06, 2022, 11:54:29 AM

Seriously, I'm on me head here, and it's like cutting through melted butter! Very, very speedy!

Slow here also for the last two or three days; think they must have replaced the hamster with a tortoise in the generator treadmill

Painfully slow for me today. So slow that I got bored of waiting for this page to load and opened another tab to browse today's news!

Galloping along here just fine. Wonder why it affects some people and not others?

Cheers,

Chris

Slow response here too. It is slow to get to a page, or create a reply, but actually then loads the content quickly. It is therefore indexing or lookups that cause the delays, not line speed or data transfer rate.

Taking ages to do certain things like loading pages after clicking 'Show all unread posts' or tagging folks for a PM

It's been sooooooo slow all day but SUDDENLY it's cracking along like lightning.

Someone must have put another 50p in the meter

Belay that. Slow again

TrevL · September 07, 2022, 11:20:24 AM

Yep, got to agree. Took 26 seconds from clicking on this thread to actually seeing it. My speed is currently 76Mbps.

Seems poor at times and back to it's usual a bit later.

I need to pay the bill tonight, and I'll raise a ticket with the host at the same time.

That's how it is here. I'm using on on three platforms with mixed results. I've cleared my cache on all three too just in case it was me.

Another issue I have is when I go into the site via my Google browser it brings up a different format, all larger red and black boxes rather than the normal forum view. There is a button top right which should allow me to press it and ask to see New posts since my last visit, but it doesn't function. I have to go into the topic that was live for me last time and then go back in the thread which then brings me back to the normal board. Not sure if that's me, because it only does it on my iPad?
