Are the New Servers Slow

[BigJon@Work]

When it hits, it is very fast, as some others have said. A great speed improvement over the old set-up. When it doesn't hit, nothing gets through to the browser window.

I've been in load balancing admin situations before, where one server was set up correctly and one wasn't, so people just kept hitting refresh until the server that was working served up their request. Is there a way to see if one server is consistently timing out or not completing requests?

Moving pretty fast this morning.....

Could it just be there are more users on the system?

Very slow today....every third click or so I would get hung up. Frustrating

[dai bread]

Going like a rocket still. I even managed to get a post through on the first click!

[Haggis@wk]

Very slow for me the past few days

Working good for me at the moment, but one never knows when proxy servers are involved.

[CLarsen]

Howdy,

So we narrowed it down to a proxy server issue and I'm working with the manufacturer to solve it. Thank you for your patience!

Thanks, Chris!

I have to double-click every time I want the system to respond.......IF it responds.

Just so you know...

[jamiebk]

Ditto with OT. This has been frustrating. I click...it hangs up. Click again...it hangs. Sometimes I hit "stop" and retry. In any event, we're not getting screen changes. I have curtailed posting many items because its too slow.

Posting has been slow for me, too. Whenever I had to post in the last month or so, I had to hit Submit about 10 times before a post was accepted.

Unrealted to the forums, I see the NPW auto-refresh feature isn't working properly. It shows the current track, and beings to refresh when it has to but never completes it. I have to manually refresh it. And if kept unattended for a long time, it comes up with a Server not Found message.
(I have it in a sidebar, btw, not in a separate window or inside a media player)

EDIT: No problem posting this message.

Hello!

We are in contact with the company that deals with these load balance issues ya' all have seen recently. They are looking into the Board and trying to figure out why the BBB is working fast on some of our servers but not all.

Until then, if the board is slow for you, refresh your screen and then you will end up on a different server. You may then see an increase in speed! Sorry about this...

[OperaTenor]

Thank you, Y.R.H.!

[jamiebk]

Yes...indeed. (Things seem to working more smoothy today, and for that we thank you)

[navneeth]

Let me be the first to report that the NPW refreshes automatically, no perpetual refreshes seen.

Thanks a lot, BRTeam!

[Trumpetmaster]

it's about 6:05AM EST and the servers are never this slow so early in the morning here....

It's really slow navigating the boards, and I've seen this message (or one like it) a couple of times.

Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 30 seconds exceeded in E:\WWW\beethoven\phpBB2\includes\template.php(127) : eval()'d code on line 33

[BigJon@Work]

Has this been fixed yet? I still get the occasional page that just never loads. The rest of the pages fly now.

Hello-

I've asked the IT staff to answer your question but I have a feeling it may be due to the work we are doing on the Brand New Beethoven.com website!!! Yes we will look very different in a few short days! And we will we have new features and interactive aspects that you should all enjoy!

I do not have and ETA on the new site yet but it will be in the next few days so keep checking the website!!

[BigJon@Work]

Cool! Can't wait.
