MacForums awfully slow

[aross99]

I see a significant improvement as well. Makes for a much better forum experience!

Yeah I noticed a lot of slowdowns. Now it's a lot faster!

The only thing that's slowing me down is the 20 second spam filter.

 

[redwarrior]

Everything is much faster for me. Thanks Arn!

And also, thanks to alphoad, it had been a whole 30 minutes since I thought about breakfast.

The forums seem particularly slow today (August 7th).

I've noticed this slowdown over the past few days, but yes, i totally agree..
at first i thought it was my web connection, but other sites load up blazing fast as usual

The forums seem slow, but my issue is with the avatars and images. Some stall, some fail, and the ones that do tend to push the page down (if you immediately scroll down through a topic and the images haven't loaded, the page will "bounce" as the images load and take up more space).

So slow here in the UK about 10 and 11 ish

The RAM update seems to have helped somewhat, but the forums still feel slow, but I have also noticed that the really slow periods have a tendency to happen at regular times. So maybe it is just the amount of users that are active on the site.

Me too.

Seems to be crashing ...

Temporary fix seems to be logging out, and you "may" be able to browse threads.

 

[localoid]

Working now... (the threads I'd mentioned minutes ago)

Same, on just about every thread, I can logout and log back in, but that will only work temporarily.

 

[MacNut]

It seemed to be a cookie problem.

Yep, time to run the repair scripts. Which means the site being offline for a bit.

 

[MacNut]

I got it working for a bit then it crashed again.

As long as you are logged out, it'll flush the cookies and work.

Log in to reply and it'll crash.

Think that is where most are at.

 

[r.j.s]

Yeah, Logging out and back in makes it so I can view one thread ... there is already a thread started by another user trying to figure it out.

Something is corrupt in the db.

 

[MacNut]

I think we are heading for the dark side of the moon again. The site is slowing too.
