I have received a few messages from users about the speed of the server.

I have noticed speed issues myself over the past two days, sometimes the speed is wicked fast other times its a little slow (its not too bad but still slow)

In checking things out it appears our server is running fine, (In fact as I write this our server is creating pages in under 1 tenth of a second!) So everything on the server is good!

The problem appears to be right outside our ISP. I went to our ISP's homepage and also had the same speed issues. In doing a tracert I found an address just outside our ISP that is having intermittent issues.

I have submitted a problem report to our ISP hopefully they can work with their backbone service provider to quickly repair the issue.

We are sorry for the inconvenience.

I am finding it VERY slow and almost unusable today. I just did a DSL Reports check on my system and all apears well here.

 

[Mark Lamutt]

It was really slow earlier today, but at the moment it's pretty quick. The ISP's working on it.

There have been two occasions today when I got a "server not found" error when going to a thread. (about 10 seconds lag from click to error) A refresh took care of the problem each time.

See ya
Tony

There is still an intermittent problem located just outside our ISP. For most of the day today the speed was great it did have its momentary glitches. Hopefully they are working on it.

 

[Richard King]

I am having GREAT speeds at the moment. I have no idea how long it will last, but I like it. Now I have to figure out what to do with all the time I saved.

I'm getting spurts of speed followed by long waits at the moment.

 

[Richard King]

Worthless again here. There is a serious problem somewhere.

 

[Scott Greczkowski]

Same here Z'loth.

You can see that the speeds get bad just before the server

I was just going to post that its slow and then it speeded up again. :shrug:

 

[Scott Greczkowski]

I have placed a trouble ticket with our ISP.

 

[Scott Greczkowski]

I worked with our ISP and they worked with their upstream provider. Everything looks good now!

In fact I went from it taking 19 hops to get here to 10 hops to get here! A big improvement!

Thanks for hanging in there everyone!

Enjoy!

 

[Mark Holtz]

I'm getting GREAT response times today. Thanks Scott.

 

[Scott Greczkowski]

Your welcome! Have fun!
