Guest Report post Posted August 13, 2005 There is another thread in this same forum where I explain what is happening. Has it been running slow today for anybody? It has been very fast on my end since Friday evening. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Redleg 0 Report post Posted August 13, 2005 Hate to say it, but another forum I go to limited the perks to keep things from getting too slow. Stuff like custom avatars and other photos. AT least until they got a new(very expensive) server. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steeldrifter 0 Report post Posted August 13, 2005 Thats not our problem right now Red heres what Will said was the reason for the slowness the last couple days....... "Just wanted to let you guys know that I "believe" I found the source of the slowness. Google is currently in the process of what is called a "deep crawl" on the site which they do every 6 months or so. Basically Google is visiting every single page/image/file that exists on this website. With over 100,000 posts, several thousand gallery photos and all the database flies it is a major drain on resources... Combine that will all the people on the site looking a pics, dowloading videos, etc and it is a little more than the server can handle. With all that said it should be over soon, I hope. I may look into keeping Google out of any pages it doesn't need to crawl like the gallery, member pages, etc just to keep this from happening again in the future." Sorry for the delays fellas. And right now the site just started moving very fast for me Will, so maybe google is done with the crawl? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Report post Posted August 13, 2005 I haven't caught it during a slow period since yesterday afternoon. Anyway, I have been speaking with the company who provides our dedicated server and we made some tweaks and installed some software that should have helped speed things up. We decided that if it continues then we are gonna double the amount of RAM that is currently on the server. It's almost twice as much money per month but if that is what has to be done......

Steeldrifter 0 Report post Posted August 14, 2005 It's moving ok for me right now. It had a hicup on TFF where it stalled out for about 30 seconds just a minute ago, but it's not bad besides that one problem as of now. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wilcara 0 Report post Posted August 14, 2005 Guys I'm not so sure about that Google story. Most times I am on line here all you guys are tucked up in your little cots, and I am the only member on line, but it's still as slow as a wet week. Can't be related to usage at your end. It is normally much better than this SD. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
