Anyone else found the forum to be slow at the moment (about 1pm)? I noticed it was slow about this time yesterday too.

Hi Pengy,

Yup - see my "Is it a conspiracy" post

I think we must have posted at the same time!  It is not as slow as when it used to grind to a halt about this time several weeks ago though.

I have had problems both today and yesterday getting on to the website too.

When you're using an 8 year old laptop with an ancient Celeron processor and less than 500MB of ram you don't tend to notice the forum going any slower than usual

Stop buying those HST worms and get a new laptop

Yes I've found it very slow for a few days but thought it was just my PC playing up. Having reformatted the hard drive a reloaded all my software though, it still seems quite slow loading.

For those of you that are following the very useful discussion about slow laptops and computers, I have split out the posts and created a new topic in the Computer Help Section.

This topic is more about the slowness on the Forum

Had another slow run on the forum about 2215 New Zealand time. Lasted for about 10 minutes then seemed to come right. Was only just this site at the time - all the others I had open went fine. Wonder whats broke, need another 20p on the meter?? 

Spoke too soon, it dieded for 15 minutes! 

Yeah, I noticed a big wait time ... gave up after 2 mins !

Mine seems fine this morning but that may just be because it's Sunday.

Seems fine to me.  Does the "Slowness" co-incide with peak traffic, users etc?  Worth working through...

Tank and Team,

I've had the slowness issues again about 13:00ish, the poor old Server was complaining:

" Temporarily Unavailable
Due to high stress on the server the forum is temporarily unavailable. Please try again later."

I think we need to give the Server a few weeks off and feed it some happy pills 

Cheers

Neal.

Yep, me too, around the same time, totally locked up at one stage.
