Slow, slow, slow (III) !

[Claudio González]

The thread with this name that was closed with no explanation did serve a useful purpose, so I am opening a new one to replace it.

Speed is back to normal now, and if there was a shutdown, I wasn't here to witness it.

[Claudio González]

This time it was working fine until I tried to open this thread: 65 seconds.

>Since these reports are coming from East coast to West coast and from Chile to Europe I think it's got be something in the way the servers are loading the pages at Web Crossing.

But Dorothy hasn't been having similar problems, so we might be just a selected few...

[Claudio González]

And then the above message was posted in about one second...

By the way, I had forgotten:

>I know you can't get all the way here, but folks might try doing tracert's to see if there are other slow downs in the system between them and the forum firewall.

Could you please explain a little? I would be willing to help, but I have no idea what you are talking about.

[Claudio González]

And then 28 seconds for #126.

I'm sure this will make sense to someone:

Your 5 and 6 compares to my 10 and 11... goes through the same servers getting to the front door. But yours takes like 3 times longer getting through the gates than mine does.

[Claudio González]

And what does this mean and what could explain such a difference?

And speed has been normal...

[Kath-H]

Had a css fail to load once yesterday, otherwise, no slow-downs here.

[Claudio González]

More than a couple of minutes to get to the forums (I did not time it), 2 minutes and 13 seconds to open this page (it hasn't fully finished loading yet), and here goes what I got while I was waiting:

Kath, is your speed normal at this time?

[Claudio González]

And 67 seconds to post message #137...

[Guest]

looks like we just went through a reboot (or crash) servers were unavailable from about 11:59EDT to about 12:14EDT. slowly coming back now as i guess indexes are being rebuilt...

[Guest]

chugging along now! site navigation seems almost instantaneous!

[Claudio González]

Nearing normality now, but erratically.

[Guest]

Slow as molasses again

[Guest]

now its back to normal.

[john_cornicello__retired_]

But speedy here (though it was down earlier this morning).

[Guest]

haven't seen a hiccup since they came back up ~20 minutes ago.

[Claudio González]

Maybe I am speaking too soon, but speed here and now is higher than in any of the last days. Like in the good old days...

[Guest]

ayup. still good here too.

[PJonesCET]

Sounds like whom ever has the servers, don't have enough. Sound from your banter they they need 2 to 4 times the number they have to keep up with traffic.

[Guest]

This pops up regularly on the WebX pages (nowhere else).



I think it is a clue to why the pages load so slowly sometimes.
