Forum Hits the Wall

Well, about 4:15PM AZT (PDT now), the forum has hit the performance wall.

Pages take about 10 mins. to load, and many of the editing features just will not work. Scheduled maintenance?

Glad that I got most of my work done earlier.

    Yes, logged on at 4:30 and it is now  5:30 PDT, and I have never seen it this slow.  Like you said it takes 10 min. to load a page.  The worst I have ever seen it before is 40 seconds.

    The slowness has been a complaint since the very start of the new forum software.  Some days it's okay, but most, it's slower than any other forum I frequent.  I don't understand why.  Perhaps those in power can enlighten me?

    I do recall something about loading images being part of the issue.

    Hopper, i think that Hunt is talking about the extreme slowness of the forums at this moment. They are so slow that I cannot enter using Safari/Vista because I am timed out. A sceduled but unannounced maintenance, no doubt.

    Claudio,

    You are correct. As of this afternoon, the fora are almost unusable. I've been spending most of the "wait time" on ChowHound, as Adobe is running as slowly, as I can recall, even during the maintenance  periods.

    Hopper is correct that the new & improved fora have not been as fast as before, but something that I could live with.

    Tonight is about the worst.
