Forum computer question

Tenpoint5 · October 14, 2010, 09:44:59 AM

Is it just me or have any of you been experiencing a slow response on the forum? I seem to be getting a lot of "Waiting for bradley smoker forum" comments on the bottom of my screen. Things seem to be really slow when moving around in the forum. I am trowing it out there just to see if it is my computer or something with the forum main frame.

I'm the wrong person to ask, being on dial up, I feel like Ka Honu!

I've noticed a few times that I had to wait - I just opened another window and did some work.

No, seems fine to me on this side of the pond.

I have noticed it running slow also. Speaking of issues with the forum.

Everything is ok on my side.

Working OK here. Sometimes it takes several seconds for a post or PM to complete, otherwise OK.

Thats when I notice it the most is when I am replying to a PM. Although I did have a thread time out on me last night.

Just got this message when I was trying to respond to a post:

QuoteConnection Problems

Sorry, SMF was unable to connect to the database. This may be caused by the server being busy. Please try again later.

The forum has been running like this for a couple of weeks now, but this is the first time I got that message.

I have noticed it replying to PMs as well as posting.
It's just sometimes though.
I have a fast connection, so that ain't the issue.
