Tim Dorr Veteran Posted July 27, 2004 Veteran Share Posted July 27, 2004 The admins have advised me to make this post: At around 6:30AM UTC (about 2.5 hours from this post), the forums will be closing for some maintenance. The posts and threads table are going to be optimized and sorted to speed up MySQL calls to the table. Since there are about 2GB of posts, it's going to take some time to do all that. So, to speed things up, the forums will go bye bye during that time. No ETA, but I think the closing message may be changed if the time can be guesstimated. For the well informed, an OPTIMIZE TABLE `posts`, `threads`; will be run :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
