Intermitent Sight Slowness
Many of you may be experiencing intermittent slow response times from our servers. I would like to apologize for this. Our host provider, Powweb, is having issues of overloading at times with their SQL database servers, and hence the root of our problem.
They have told me their engineers are working on the problem and we should see some quicker response times soon. I have a ticket number that I'm tracking, and will check back with them periodically. They will also see if there is anything specific they can do in the interim to keep things running fast for us.
Again, my apologise. Moving to a new host provider is the last thing I want to do, as it will result in a lot of work and potentially some downtime. I will if I don't get any improvements soon however.
Thanks,

OMG, deadly slow while checking in at work the last 2 days, last evening and so far tonite ...... not bad , would it take some help from us guys/gals to make the move to a faster provider/server.
I'm not any good with the software aspect of changing but would be willing to give a bit of help where I could

Firefox reported that this response page took 46 seconds to load and that has been on of the faster pages this past few weeks.
I have got used to slow response here but lately things are starting to remind me of the dial up days on my 14.4
Bobber please do what you think is appropriate.
I am a dedicated visitor and am not about to give up but I am finding that I can not check in that often.

Ditto. I bailed out more than a few times this past week, as I just couldn't hang around and wait any more. It is frustrating, especially when your time is thin, but I can't imagine the work that would be involved for Bobber either.Rex Mundi wrote: I am a dedicated visitor and am not about to give up but I am finding that I can not check in that often.
It's better tonight, but it seems to be slower more often than not these days. Some times agonizingly so.

The frustration is felt by all, I'm sure. As far as migrating to a new host, nothing is lost. The biggest problem is the few hours of down time, while the files migrate to the new IP address. Nothing needs to be done at all. it's just a "move" of everything that we have now, to a new home. It's transparent to everyone (other than the downtime during migration).

It has been brutal, for sure, and I have just moved on more often than hung around waiting for a page to load.
I am always willing to put my money where my mouth is, and I would be happy to send a contribution to help out if the problem is $$$$$$.
And as a volunteer in many things over many years, I want to state PUBLICLY how much I appreciate the hard work, dedication, and huge time spent by all of the VOLUNTEERS who maintain this site. THANKS to all of you!

Yes I know, sadly it has been really bad as of late and I humbly apologize for this.
The problem is not $$$, it's the time it takes to convert from one provider to another. However it looks like I have to bite the bullet and get it done sooner than later. I'm just as frustrated as you guys. I haven't had a problem today though. I'll have a look at my trouble ticket to see if they have done anything and make a decision soon. I promise.
Again, sorry for inconvenience. Just have to find the time to get it done I guess.
