Long since checked that and eliminated it. We're well beyond that.

 

Appreciate the ideas, but we're on it. 

 

Thanks!

 

btw, I also had a "trash 80", then a TI 99/4a, and so on.

For what its worth - Swimbait U-ground is having the same problem.

It may take a while - these intermittent errors are the hardest to track down and fix...I'd give it several days if not a week or so.

^^ This ^^  Thanks for your continued patience guys.  This one is going to take a very, very long time to fix.

 

As such, this is the last time I will post about it, until I can announce it's been resolved.

Wanted to provide a quick update, since it may seem like the problem is resolved - it's not.  But suffice to say, we're making progress.  You'll still notice intermittent slow-downs, but not as severe or as long as before.

 

Still not out of the woods yet, but getting there.

A Trash80. Now that was a computer....

This is getting to be a sort of "whose is bigger" kind of thread ?.

 

I had the original TRS-80 back in 1977. It sold for $668 was had a white letter asci screen, ran at 1.78 mhz and had 4 whole K or ram. You saved programs to a Radio Shack cassette tape recorder. It took several minutes to save a less than 1k program. You pretty much needed to type in all your stuff in basic. I had a magazine subscription to 80-Micro that printed programs that were sometimes pages long to type in. My first line driven word processor was done that way with no printer available... I was 22 yrs old then. Graduated to Apple products after that and eventually to Apple Macs in 1984 to where I am today. It was the wild west of technology then. 150 baud dialup long distance call to  AOL, A book the size of a thick catalog to get yourself hooked up with an IP address years later. Bulletin board systems instead of the internet. Then Mozilla, later to be Netscape Navigator, the only and king of browsers then.... eventually it adopted graphics. Talk about super slow downloads. You could make a sandwich waiting for a simple page to load. It was all pretty exciting then though.... I was one of the early geeks.... or maybe it was just nerd.

Thank you.... faster than I thought considering your previous post. I've noticed a difference at times.

I've noticed the site being very slow as well. Sounds like you're on it, any 'hints' as to what you're finding? DDOS? etc?

Seems like the site is fixed...nice and spiffy now. I was productive for the last couple days of work...not so much now.

It was a little laggy earlier...but the past couple hours has seen it not error off and load pretty quickly. Hopefully, Glenn found the issue.

Much better now....thanks Glenn.

Site is humming like a well oiled machine! Thanks @Glenn

Well, we've discovered a bottleneck regarding open connections available on the platform and have implemented a workaround.  Along the way, we discovered opportunities to optimize the underlying technology stack and implemented them.

 

Still working on discovering what triggered it to happen in the first place, and closing that loop.

Probably from the severe increase of traffic as northern lakes start freezing over.    This is the time of year where AJ's activity on the forums quadruples. 

Working fine for me today.

Now it's working too fast, my brain can't keep up.

I have not ruled that out. 

 

I want my money back !  Wait a second, this site is free.

Thanks for the fix. The site is honking along nicely now!
