Site much slower since the new server....
« on: June 08, 2010, 10:44:05 pm »
.
I'm finding the instances of extremely loooong "Waiting.." to be far more frequent since the new server. I tend to load another tab and another site while waiting so I can check it's not my system - It's not.

Once it's eventually loaded it's fast but I've actually quit the site a few times because nothing was loading.

Anyone else experiencing long delays?

Not complaining about the site but just giving feedback. It happens when simply loading the next or previous page and not just when posting or navigating.

It's not constant, but just occasional and random. Perhaps it's just traffic volume induced. I'm guessing.. I don't know.

Slower for me too, but hasn't thrown me off since we had the new server, which annoyed me more!!

Is it on a dedicated server now?

I get occasional Server 500 Errors.
Only 250.1bhp - but with that noise, who cares?

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.
