Once again the system is loading pages slow. I tried to load a page a couple of times, and then finally switched to another page. My opinion is that these times are bad, but it may be just me.

I am facing very similar issues, but I thought that's caused by the fact that I am on a VPN
Everything that has a computer in will fail. Everything in your life, from a watch to a car to, you know, a radio, to an iPhone, it will fail if it has a computer in it. They should kill the people who made those things.- 'Woz' save a blobFileStreamDataTable To Text Filemy blog
Ahh...... I was hoping for no complaints today. My hopes are dashed.
We made another change yesterday -- moved the CSS out of the database or something like that. There was hope that this would help with the speed, but it seems it didn't.
There is another change happening tomorrow. Let's see how things operate on Friday.

I am on high speed connection and still have issues so you are not alone. 3 months (!) since upgrade and we still talking about performance.
You know, I don't get it: wasn't it ever tested before making decision? What was the point to upgrade besides of course "too many forums; easy maintenance; outdated software", etc things we already know.
This is perfect example of well known receipe: "don't fix it if ain't broken". Sorry, but I coudn't resist... Is there any way to downgrade (not joking)?
We shifted things off of servers a week or so ago. Is anyone other than RB having noteable speed issues still?
Rhino - We actually shifted off of servers in the Eastern United States to servers in the Western United States. This was to get our servers and systems closer to our main office. The old servers were a part of our previous owners systems and we had a deadline to get off of them. Because we were moving servers, it made logical sense to go ahead and upgrade the forums to gain security and other benefits. There was some testing done; however, there was no easy way to test the size of forums we have. Additionally, other upgraded forums dont' seem to have had the same speed impact we had.
Regardless, a lot has been done to smooth things out. Right now, I'm seeing very few complaints about the database errors or speed. If a couple more people indicate that the speed is still off, then it makes it easier for me to say it is on our side and not a client-side issue.

Re: Speed - Again
I still get intermittent speed problems. Most of the times it runs OK but it's still hanging from time to time. It seems to be worst when I'm posting a reply. I'll hit the post button and watch the little spinny wheel of frustration for a few minutes before just giving up. If I navigate back my post is there.

An hour or two ago it was taking me over a minute to load pages from this site... whereas pages of other sites (with similar complexity) were loading for me in under 2 seconds.
(edit: it is currently taking around 15 seconds to load pages, including this one)
Right now I am in the office on super fast network; my hardware isn't latest and greatest but quite speedy as well.
However, the slowness is still noticeable - it may take anywhere from 15 seconds (like SI mentioned) to a minute and more (some times) to load the page.
Refresh rate of almost every page is horrible - most often you can sit and "enjoy" watching every button (above the edit box) refreshing especially after clicking the "edit post".
These are just high level observations...
edit: it took 73 seconds to load main page just now; it took about 35 seconds to get to a point when I was able to edit this post...

C++ programmers will dismiss you as a cretinous simpleton for your inability to keep track of pointers chained 6 levels deep and Java programmers will pillory you for buying into the evils of Microsoft. Meanwhile C# programmers will get paid just a little bit more than you for writing exactly the same code and VB6 programmers will continue to whitter on about "footprints". - FunkyDexter

It's been great for me, though I've only been on fairly recently. I do see that some double posts are popping up, which is a problem I thought had been fixed, and is also a problem that seems to be a symptom of slow.
I'm passing "slow" reports to our techs when you guys post. As such, even if I don't respond here in the forum, I am forwarding the information.
As a note, my performance is zippy fast compared to normal.

Well, I haven't experience a serious performance problem in quite a while now....like weeks. It stalls out here and there sometimes but nothing like it was in the few weeks after the upgrade. Its slowly getting back to pre-update levels of performance.

Ok.....The performance recently has been a little sluggish. Posts take like 6 seconds to go through now. Been happening for a few hours now. However, just browsing remains fine though, its just posting that's suffering. Even edits seem to be working snappy so it must be something with new posts that's eating up time.

I'm having speed issues as well. Whatever I do on the forums, it often takes several seconds before a page loads. Almost none of the other sites I visit are as slow as Vbforums is right now.
Yesterday the forum seemed to take ages to post replies for me but today it seems to take only 1 or 2 seconds if that.

Today is much better. A few hours of bad in a week is more perplexing than anything else. There's no specific reason that I can see, including the time of day (though it does seem to go slower when the US Eastern Time Zone gets to work).

Speed is still horrible i said this WEEKS ago. And guess what they banned me because i was mad that they didn't fixed it in two weeks. My latency is beyond 2000ms
It's not cool anymore to use vbforums.
Indeed. As slow as browsing the forums over GPRS while downloading 20 torrents at the same time.
Can you imagine how slow that is? Yea.. it is that slow

I have about the slowest connection that can be considered broadband, but the speed is back up for me. If anybody should have slow performance, it should be me, yet I only had a few hours of really bad performance back on the 20th, as I noted. The slow performance now seems to be regional rather than universal.
