    All seems well to me here.

    Pages load up first time, and fairly quickly.

    I do see some differences in the user interface.

    It's much better now. I wonder if there was some transient high load condition, perhaps not all the servers were up and running at full steam, something was re-indexing, I dunno.

    I suppose one should test all the servers to be sure, but it looks a lot better.

    I guess I should mention this seemed worst pulling up old threads that were not cached, e.g. googling for something and finding an old forum thread and following the link.

    I just tried scaring up some old threads via Google searches...

    Stuff from back in 2010 came up in just a few seconds.  Maybe the first try took a little longer (login?) but it seems snappy even with old data now.  I like your indexing theory, John.

    Received an e-mail warning me about this at 13.45GMT today (12 November 2011). About as much use as a chocolate teapot...

    My e-mail came about 3-4 days out, and I marked it, then when the "time" drew near, posted about it, should others not have seen the Announcement. Maybe I have a faster POP server?

    What I thought was interesting, was that Adobe's estimate of the down-time was very, very close to perfect. That impressed me.

    Luckily a short downtime.

    THe forum feels veeeeeery slow now, after the downtime is over. Some pages seem to be taking

    Upwards of 15 seconds for a page to load.

    One thing I see is improved The screen doesn blink on and off as many times before its settles down. Now it blinks on and off just twice instead of 5 or 6 times before it settles down.


    Phillip,

    I never noticed that. However, it could be that I am grabbing a glass of wine, and just missed it?
