somthing is slowing things down: 11:00 Seattle

Slow most of the day, but not nearly as bad as the Bad Old Days (last month). It was especially bad when I went to the reply page instead of my usual quick reply.

Ah, good that this has been noticed. I had load times of several minutes per page today. RPG.net (with 570 users) loaded within 2 seconds at the same time, so it's not my machine. It's somewhat better now, but still slow.

Edit: Funny

! Just in this very moment, it got fast

Things do seem faster now (5:30pm central). I'm seeing less lag overall.

Screaming for me now (7:45 PM EST) and I am at home with a 56K modem and about a 1000 users online, see it was PirateCat eatting all the bandwidth.

Faster but still sluggish for me.

Me, too. Late this morning the whole site slowed down to a crawl (several minutes to load a page). As of early evening, it has increased in speed to about where it was prior to the server upgrade (30-45 seconds a page). Since the upgrade and up until this morning, pages were loading in a matter of moments.

Well, the downloads page has been installed in that timeframe, so that's the most likely culprit. I've dialed down the allowed connections to see if that will help.

I'm not experiencing any more slowdown at the moment. Site is loading smoothly all the way

Happy Happy Joy Joy

At work now 6:20 AM 526 users online T1 connection and I don't know. It looks like it is faster but there is a slow down on displaying/refreshing the contents of the page.

Getting better.
