    I thought we were getting better load times now. If people are having slow load times, let us know.

    As to cheap servers-- if we were on cheap servers, this site would be at a stand-still because of the high traffic volume.

    This may be just you, or it may be regional. I've been getting excellent load times ever since sometime last fall.

    I may be misunderstanding, but that sounds like a problem with the user rather than a problem with the server.

    There is an occasional problem with a reply is posted. At one point, right after the software upgrade, this was happening nearly all the time. By now it is down to a number well below 1 in 20, and quite possibly below 1 in 100. On the other hand, it is still there, so there is something going on. If you are getting it often, that may be informative. On the other hand, it may just be a symptom of whatever other slowdown you are seeing.

    I'm still experiencing alot of slow loads both from my work and home pcs. To be honest, I've reached the point where I just live with it but it does feel a bit like I've returned to the 1980s.

    Anecdotaly, I often seem to notice that a particularly slow to load thread is somehow changed by the time I open it, e.g. the last post in the thread isn't the last post that was displayed on the parent forum page, implying that it's someone elses updated that's locking me out. That could be a total red herring though.

    I thought we'd done another software update here. We've not done it yet. We will be doing it soon. We want to see if that helps some of the issues that might still be lingering. Coming very soon.

    The site performs fine for me....Not the same high level of performance it had before the upgrade but very very close to it.

    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

    I'm on EST and it seems the site comes up and down a lot between, say, 6:00 to 6:30 AM. I always figured it was maintenance and it usually comes back up pretty quick.
