The server is too busy at the moment. Please try again later.

NeoBond etc., disable the guest accounts! That'll free up some resources!

Also, how about deleting accounts that have been inactive for longer than 30/50 days?

i don't think freeing the guests is a good idea but for sure delete the inactive accounts for at least 60 days!

Ah just compact the tables, should be nuff.

i've gone through them all. they've all been optmized (there is not true compact table command under mysql)

and we're not going to turn off guests, becuase we will no longer grow... it's a double edged sword really...

What are the spects one the server running this site? Do you have the latest version of MySQL installed, this may help a little.

no we don't, we have .46 and the latest is .51.

i'm goign to see about getting shell access for myself so I can a) upgrade mysqld, and b) compile it on our server so I'm sure we have the optimal settings to run under...

Yeah... You should email (as a curtesy, not a spam or annoyance) anyone who didn't come here for over 3 months.

Just ask them if they are still interested to come back, if not their account will be deleted.

And you tell them why (because server is down too much)

Sometimes, people too busy with life forget about places they visited and they also don't want to be erased.

Yeah we dont need Guest's :cheeky:

How do you think "Guest's" became members? I'm sorry but we can disable everything and become a crap site too if you want.

well what u want? better for guests or no more service for members? we grow up and the server dont grow as we grow... if neowin start doing this everyday... i'll change forums...

Well hey if we lose you that means the server gets faster ;) j/j

I think disabling guests is a bad idea, as well as disabling old accounts. It basically gives the "Post or be deleted" attitude. People don't like that. Anyway inactive accounts aren't causing the problem, it's actually active accounts cause it is to do with the server load, i.e. the number of users who are logged in and using the board increase the server load

It's not the size of the database that's the problem here , mysql databases can be gigabytes before they slow down (ours is less than 250Mb) . It's the number of hits on the server (sql and http)

    • Microsoft's fast coding model MAI-Code-1-Flash comes to Copilot Business and Enterprise by Karthik Mudaliar Microsoft’s recently announced MAI-Code-1-Flash model is now generally available to GitHub Copilot Business and Copilot Enterprise customers. With this support, organizations can have more centralized policy controls and billing while finally being able to use Microsoft’s lightweight, first-party coding model. According to GitHub’s announcement, Business and Enterprise plan administrators must enable the MAI-Code-1-Flash policy in Copilot settings before developers can access the model. Microsoft says that MAI-Code-1-Flash is for fast, iterative coding work rather than the most demanding architectural or debugging tasks. GitHub’s official model comparison page says that the model is great for "general-purpose coding and writing," while it excels at fast, accurate code completions and explanations Microsoft introduced MAI-Code-1-Flash on June 2 as part of a broader collection of internally developed MAI models. GitHub subsequently expanded support to Copilot CLI, the Copilot cloud agent, GitHub.com chat, GitHub Mobile, Visual Studio, JetBrains IDEs, Eclipse, and Xcode, but said support for managed Business and Enterprise customers was still on the way. In Microsoft’s own benchmark testing, MAI-Code-1-Flash scored 51.2% on SWE-Bench Pro, compared with 35.2% for Anthropic’s Claude Haiku 4.5. Microsoft also claimed that the model used up to 60% fewer tokens on SWE-Bench Verified. Do note that these are vendor-run results rather than independent measurements. The model is billed at provider list pricing under GitHub’s usage-based system. GitHub currently lists MAI-Code-1-Flash at $0.75 per million input tokens, $0.075 per million cached input tokens, and $4.50 per million output tokens. For organizations, the main incentive to use MAI-Code-1-Flash is likely to be efficiency rather than maximum capability. A smaller model that responds quickly and limits unnecessary output is quite useful for repetitive agent tasks at scale, especially after GitHub Copilot’s move toward usage-based billing. The "Flash" model is recommended for fast work and not necessarily for huge repositories with loads of context. It's better if teams compare their output with other larger models, especially if they're working on security-sensitive changes and complex, multi-file work.
    • yes AND no the "original" or plain/normal Optiplex 7010 won't be getting any more new firmware updates BUT the Optiplex SFF/SFF Plus {small form factor}, Micro/Micro Plus & Tower/Tower Plus 7010 editions DO get new updates such as this new one   and here are similar guides from the Dell web site for Dell systems: https://www.dell.com/support/kbdoc/en-us/000390990/secure-boot-transition-faq https://www.dell.com/support/kbdoc/en-us/000347876/microsoft-2011-secure-boot-certificate-expiration
