Board slowness

[Broni]

I think it's time to report it.
It started few days ago and it's very intermittent.
It can be clicking on this board link in an email notification, while searching or switching pages.

One member in malware removal topic reported same thing.

Maybe some ad is hanging there like it was last time.

I have noticed it lately as well. It might take 20-30 seconds for a page to load but a minute later it's back to normal. There doesn't seem to be any reason I can see for it.. and I block ads so it wouldn't be that either.

I have a adblocker as well but this is what they was the reason last time around.

I may be wrong but I think adblocker simply prevent ads from being displayed but the code itself may be still loading,

The IT people are already aware of this

Thanks Steve.

Anything is being done?
Last time it took like couple of months to fix the issue.
I hope this is not the case this time around.

Here is a second member reporting disappearing replies after posting: http://discussions.virtualdr.com/sho...51#post1457951

Had to post my logs twice this morning because they disappeared after first attempt

It started few days ago and it's very intermittent.

Of course it's being looked at... But, as you've noticed yourself - it's very intermittent which as you should know - makes it difficult to figure out.

[Broni]

As of now it's really slow whatever you do.
What about those missing posts?

[Broni]

Something is definitely malfunctioning.
I just clicked on "New posts" and I got a list of topics dating to yesterday.
Most of them read already.

Missing posts -> Probable one time freak event with the possibility that the user goofed up

All of our sites went down at some point last night. I found them down this morning around 3am CST.. All appears to be ok now.

[Train]

Down twice then. Was down for a 1/2 or so about 8 PM PST.

Do they think that the earlier isolated incidents were related to the bigger server issues last night?

[Steve R Jones]

Best guess on the "delay" issue is that it's related to the ads\ads server. Everybody and their brother is now in on the deal.

My best guess on the big outage - router or switch at the datacenter malfunctioned..

"Subscribe to this topic" doesn't work.
If set I'm not getting any email notifications about new replies.
If I do reply notifications work.

Search for anything extremely slow.
