site very slow

lil chris · January 07, 2019, 08:36:53 PM

I do not know if anyone else is experiencing the same problem but I am finding the site very slow of late. Its like going back years when everything was slow. I know Tank you said you were sorting the problems but for me at the moment its practically un-useable. It might be my age I am very impatient, I hate queue's for example. Hope its sorted soon, I really like this site. Chris

I have had a few slow moments tonight @lil chris . I have also had a couple of 'time outs'. But, in general, the site is running a lot quicker than it has been.

Sorry to hear that. Zooming along for me tonight.

daffy · January 07, 2019, 09:14:10 PM

Just speeding along happily for me too.

I have cleared the cache, but it took 19 seconds to load the post by daffy.

Hi everyone, I must admit its running faster now, but it was terrible earlier in fact I gave up and logged out. I keep my browser set not to save stuff and keep the cache clear. I am on supposedly a fast connection ie Virgin media, seeing has everything else loaded quick I assumed its this site. Anyway keep up the good work @Tank its much appreciated.

daffy · January 08, 2019, 08:38:29 PM

Just a positive update.

All running well each time I've been online today. Same speed as all other sites I use.

Gremlins.

Thanks to all those who keep us happy.

Very slow between about 18.25 and 18.40 ish this evening.
Pages taking about 40 seconds to load and at 18.35 the site timed out before it loaded a page.
Almost back to normal now though.

dannyboy · January 22, 2019, 07:18:14 PM

Same here, but the 'slowness' and 'time outs' are very intermittent.
