things slowing way down again this morning


Recommended Posts

Replies seem to be hanging, Although if I look at the same thread in another tab it successfully posts my reply. It just kinda times out on the replying tab and doesn't admit it has done it

Actually, it's running the best it has in months, at the moment. I did have a slowness just trying to login though earlier.

Edit:

I lied. Just took 45seconds to post that above line. :(

Maybe it's a router problem or whatnot? If your servers are in the same racks as stardock's, has anyone looked to see if their site goes slow when neowin starts going slow?

Thats would slow the entire site though not just the forums

not that i am saying it might not be but just my view lol

It's got to be the forum software, the front page is still fine for me. I've tried blocking the ads and that didn't even make much difference to loading speed, so they can't be to blame either

^ It's been better overall for me but it comes and goes. It completely stopped working for me last twice on two different occasions, but only for a short time. It worked fine the rest of the time.

Just for the sake of my own interest (and this question is directed not just at Neowin's staff but anyone that knows IPB) do you believe the issues are specific to Neowin and it's customisations or does IPB simply not handle large boards well?

Strange, things used to be very slow for me but its much faster yesterday and today.

Saying that, my download speed does seems quicker too, maybe its just my connection that speeded up :laugh:

It was the AJAX loading of the new post that was slow for me, and I don't think that's related to my connection so not convinced its my end that made it quicker.

I'm having database errors from time to time when clicking links from the 'new forum content' area from the main page. Seems to related to the forum software imo.
