Server Speed Feedback Needed

I am having no problems....only a "touch" of lag....nothing big. I have come to the conclusion that if it is in one of it's "bad moods" lag wise then I will just log off until later.

All right, we are trying quite a few things with the server last night and today. Sorry for all the downtime as we try to make it more stable. As I have updates I'll give them.

Is this why the Members in the forums at the bottom of the screen is On then Off? Seems like when it is On...then the server is slow...when it is Off it is allot snappier.

All right, server is back up after some maintenance. We still need to optimize it but we'll see how it holds up. Thanks everyone for your continued patience.

Server seems to be doing a restart at about 3am (server time) each day and it forgets to restart apache. We'll get that fixed.

Seems to be running decently well so far. I've been cruising around here for a good hour now. (yay for not doing anything in class).

Seems to be doing better then it has been. Yay for fixing it!

And again, Apache went down when the server restarted at about 3AM. Had to bring that up manually so it's something we are checking into again.

I'm getting a gateway timeout for the add banners at the top of each GWG page, causing 1+ minute page loads every time I move pages or post. Is there any way to disable the above until the add server admins fix whatever issue is hitting their boxes?

I'm seeing this problem on both my home and work PC's, so I know it's not a local issue. Either way, GWG is almost unusable in its present state due to very slow page loads.

lord shar,

Working on it now. This is a problem only with IE right now, Firefox users are fine.

I am geting it in opera also.

All right, it's not the ad server. So Opera and IE, weird problem. I'll continue looking into it.

Hmmm, just deleted some work that I did today on VB... not that either. Let's keep trying here.

OMG...absolutely terrible. I had to run Firefox just to get to this page. However, I am getting continual "time out" messages with Firefox too, so I wouldn't say it's just IE and opera. Everytime it tries to load a page, it gets stuck on mmoguru...adserver.

Here's what I was going through while trying to post this.

The ads don't show up on firefox for me, but the pages load well enough. I don't use anything other than pop-up blockers, and this is not a usual occurrence.

FWIW, I've also been getting these today in Firefox. I don't think it is browser dependent. FF usually tells me that it is waiting on www.evostats.com while waiting for the ad to display. I usually get "the connection has timed out" in the ad display space ...

Legion

If I have not spoke too soon, all is working well again

the adserver was down, though an iframe isnt supposed to slow down loading... sigh

Yay...all good now. Whew.
