Yet again the LPA is extremly slow in loading it's threads, for me atleast. It's getting kinda annoying because it constantly happens, one minute the server is bloody fast, the next minute threads load so damn slow that I quit trying to load them. Does anyone actualy know what the problem is? One thing I can confirm though is that it's not my computer causing the slowness.
What time is this happening at? Every day, the server automatically backs up the site and uploads them to a different storage server, which slows things down for a bit. I believe the backups are made at midnight US central time and the uploading takes place at 3 AM. I tried to schedule them at a time when few people would be online, but due to the fact we have members from all around the world, there's not really a good time where no one will be online.
It usualy happens between 10 am and 1pm English time then again at around 9-11pm, otherwise it's pretty much okay but it's still sometimes quite slow.
OK, I think between 10 and 1 your time would be the backup times. Between 9 and 11 would be around 3 - 5 PM US time which I'm not too sure about. I'm sure that's when everyone comes online which doesn't help anything, but I'll keep an eye on it
It actually was just completely non functional right now. And certain other days it takes forever to load something, usually in the evening =\.
Basically guys, it has to deal with the fact there's so many of you mothereffers logging in at one time . Sure our server is capable, but when you're looking at about 100 people seeing the site AT ONCE, that's where the problem is coming in. You guys are beating up this server cause you're all logging in at once. Anyone have 1000USD? Cause that's our NEXT option.
Hah, Derek, did you get the donation link back up and running? I've got 25 beans with your name on it (again)
