Forum Speed Issues

[John]

Slow all evening here. Occasional burst of nomal speed then dwindled back to annoying again. Hope you get to the bottom of it Grant. Other sites I use are fine.

[VNA]

Thank you, it is back to normal if not better. It was the night before that was soooo sloooow which was morning for England!

[iPeace]

Very decent performance at the moment.

[Saganite]

Excellent performance Grant !

After a day without SGL, the blood pressure is returning to normal. 

[Stu]

All looking good here so far this morning too  ?

[jock1958]

Carried out an IOS 12 update on my IPhone yesterday and thought it was that, that was causing the problems!

Seems all good just now ?

[Stub Mandrel]

Seems faster now (I've hexed it...) Perhaps it was Storm Ali blowing the bits off course.

[Knighty2112]

So far this morning it’s seems OK. Hope it’s all sorted out. ??

[Grant]

It appears the forum is now running super fast during off peak times but we are still hitting some configuration limits during peak times.

This is being looked into as we speak.

Strangely, the load on the server itself is minimal the issue is we are hitting some configuration blocks to do with the number of simultaneous users.

Running fine  here.

The answers simple then - just hold a ballot and delete half the users at random....

...Hey! Why does it say 'account locked'?

<edit> Should add - thanks to @Grant for the work being put in to sort this.

Slight blip earlier but another tweak made and things seem to be running nice and speedy at present - please let me know if you notice anything from this point onwards...

Grant, I bet you have been out and fed the hamsters so they can keep the wheel turning....

Great job done very proactive do not see that very often, I am waiting for tp-link to Rma 2 of my smart switches just died a week ago I have emailed them on a daily basis

I found it very slow on Friday night/Saturday morning, but ok now.

I had problems connecting to the internet earlier this evening; though I think this was my ISP.  

[Stu]

All seems to be fine here still, looking good Grant

Is it just me or are SGL page views getting a bit slow again?  SGL has been pretty sluggish at my end of the wire for the last day or so, other web sites are fine...

There was a short slow spell yesterday evening but otherwise it's been OK for me.

[Grant]

I'm seeing some slowness again now - investigating

[JamesF]

I thought it was just my internet connection, but I've been seeing some sluggish responses since mid-afternoon yesterday as far as I recall.

[Captain Scarlet]

me too from an otherwise very fast connection just today...

Wow, you guys are faster than your download speeds!   Don’t know if you have kicked a server or something, but things seem back to normal...

[Davey-T]

Had a couple of page not found glitches the last couple of days but OK ATM.

Dave

[Stu]

Been slow on and off for me, just had a timed out connection, but ok now. Stranger and stranger, good luck pinning it down Grant.

[Grant]

It seems to coincide with when we have multiple search bots active - we've tweaked a few things (again!) and are monitoring...

I've had sporadic hangs (or very slow 'transactions') of late. The last glitch was when I tried to react to a post about an hour ago. It just hung and a message came up saying that there was an issue with notifications. Earlier, I wantedto edit a post but I could not get it save. I could, though, close SGL and start it again.
