YES its backup sunday but it STILL shouldnt make it this slow and i would have thought its finished by now

ALSO its not normally this slow other sundays!

And i know that the server doesnt respond to ping/tracert but those tracert does show there is a latency spike on one of the routers between here and neowin.

A backup may slow the server down but i mean comon 2+ mins to open a page and its been like this all day on and off.

I can't believe for 1 second that the backup is all thats cuasing this slowness.

Obviously they are doing a master backup before they install IPB 2.1 :ninja:

Seriously, some Sundays are slower than others. Maybe there was more activity this weel than last week. Maybe there is a babe thread that I don't know about.

Maybe we got mentioned again on some other site that shall remain nameless. :D Maybe we have a lot of Germans visiting because of that magazine.

In all likelyhood things we be normal again soon. Please be patient.

really?  what new thingys will tag along with that?

dunno but i should imagine thats going to be some upgrade.

considering the size of neowins sql database must be huge.

do they ever clear out the old stuff :unsure:

LMFAO, I give you the award for post of the day :rofl: :laugh:

I'm still having the slowness. It took me 2 minutes just to log in, plus another minute just to open this topic.

Most Sunday Backups don't usually take this long. (Usually 12 hours before this.)

So, (and I am probably starting the rumor mill here), but why do you think it is taking so long. Are they taking a full master backup before moving to IPB 2.1, or are they... I can't believe I am even saying this... moving to phpBB. :pinch:

    • I don't have a problem with adverts, I not fond of the tracking. My main problem is when you have to keep clicking close to remove them before you can see anything On the site. The ones that keep updating and moving stuff around as they are different sizes are as bad. Neowin is not too bad with Adverts, but ones that keeps updating or have animation can be distracting when reading something, like the one showing now, about how much should I walk to lose weight. I realise sites need adverts to survive, but stop changing them every few seconds.
    • SQL Server Management Studio 22.7 brings "What's New" page, T-SQL formatting, and lots more by Usama Jawad SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) is the tool of choice for most developers working with SQL infrastructure and data. Microsoft recently released SSMS version 22, and in the past few months, it has been steadily releasing point upgrades to refine the integrated development environment (IDE). Now, it has released SSMS version 22.7.0 with a bunch of new features and interfaces. For starters, SSMS 22.7 has netted a native "What's New" page, which highlights the top features and bug fixes present in the latest release. However, Microsoft says that this page won't annoy you much as it will only show up each time you update SSMS, and once you dismiss it, it won't be shown again to you until the next release. Secondly, Microsoft has finally introduced T-SQL formatting inside SSMS. The good thing about this is that it does not require installing any additional components, as it is built into the native experience. All you have to do is right-click the query editor window and select Format SQL from the context menu. Additionally, you also have several customization options at your disposal, such as the ability to automatically place semicolons at the end of a statement, split clauses across multiple lines, and more. However, this capability is only in preview for now. Additionally, Microsoft has introduced a preview of Agent Mode, which allows the AI model to automatically perform complex workflows on your behalf. Furthermore, Agent Mode will operate in read-only mode by default, so that you don't have to worry about the AI model accidentally deleting your data. On a related note, Microsoft is finally allowing users to configure the execution context of GitHub Copilot. This can be controlled per database using the CONSTITUTION.md file, where you specify the user details for the agentic executor. You can find details about this and additional bugfixes in Microsoft's blog post here.
    • I only use 3 extensions in Zen. I don't need or want a ton of stuff in my browser i don't use.
    • I prefer to choose my own ad bockers, not what the browser seems to think I need. i remember the days when a browser was just that, now they try and be everything and add stuff in that not all of us want. I bet Brave is full of AI rubbish? I will stick with Zen, not perfect, but better than others.
