Nooooo, not again! Slow page loads

[Painfully]

Not to sound ominous or anything, but the boards pages are loading quite slowly for me today.

Anybody else getting this?

I'm using a AT&T cable connection around Chicago and the time is 1:10pm central time.

I really hope this isn't a server thing...again. I thought they fixed all that stuff.

Yeah its slow for me also and I have a cable modem. The logo, banner and top row of buttons loads fast but the rest is extremely slow. On top of that, the "jump to" drop down box is gone.

same here ...

the forumn jump feature is gone (my favorite! ) ... but there is a search function now (never used it)

Too many MySQL connections.

Morrus should run "mysqladmin flush-hosts" from a console (say telnet) to speed some things up.

1). Start->Run->"telnet" (without quotes).
2). Connect->Remote access, then "enworld.cyberstreet.com", "telnet", "vt100".
3). Wait around 10 seconds for the prompt to appear.
4). Login using server username then password.
5). Write "mysqladmin flush-hosts" (without quotes).
6). Disconnect.

A day later and still slowslowslow... Taking upwards of 20-30secs just to change a page (death on a messageboard with so many pages). Spent the better part of the morning on the NWN boards, suffering withdrawal symptoms (they're FAR less nice over there!).

 

[Psionicist]

Well, i have told morrus HOW to fix it. Now it's up to him.

 

[reapersaurus]

it would be nice for some admin to address this issue....

Morrus already relpied in this thread. It's being looked at by the Cyberstreet people.

I'd rather have the forum jump than the search feature. The forum jump makes it easy to browse through the different forums, which is important to me.

Why would I use the search funtion? To go looking for threads I don't know about yet because I haven't gotten to that forum yet? Um, thanks but no thanks.

I'm a fan of Search over Forum Jump because with Search I can "view all threads" and don't have to deal with the organization of forums at all.
