Feedback Intermittent Site Sluggishness?

Amin

Hall of Famer
And now it's fast again. I swear, is anyone else experiencing this? This has been going on since Saturday for me. Sometimes the forums are normal, and sometimes clicking on a link takes a whole minute for the page to load. It just seems to have no discernible pattern at all.

Anyone else experiencing this issue late yesterday or today? Through the weekend there were some site issues, but I thought I got them fixed yesterday.
 
Amin: I have. Sometimes it was snappy, sometimes it was sluggish, regardless of OS and browser (I use Chrome OS and GNU/Linux, Chrome, Chromium and Firefox, different versions). It seems okay again, but I can't check consistently enough to make sure this is really the case.

It was fine earlier. But right now it takes about a minute to load a page when I click on a thread link. Both here and over at TalkEmount. Everywhere else I go on the web loads quickly. This server is the only one giving me problems. The strange thing is that the front pages load quickly at all times. It's only the individual thread links that are slow.
 
I hadn't until I just tried to open THIS thread about intermittent sluggishness, and it was..... sluggish...

Are you just trying to build a case to move over to that other platform?!?!? :D

Back to being slow. I don't know. I give up.

I'm working with the hosting company to try and pin down the problem. If it happens again, please note the time and time zone in this thread so we can see what is happening on the server at that time.
 
So far so good, Amin. I've checked in here and at TalkEmount three times this morning, and it's been zippy.

I hope I haven't jinxed anything now. :rolleyes:
 
Sorry Amin, but I've just checked in for the first time today, and it's back to being slow. I had no problems all day yesterday, but obviously whatever fix you implemented didn't permanently fix the problem for me.

One possible clue: I only tried this once, but the day before, when I surfed to this site over LTE on my phone, and then clicked on a thread, the page loaded instantly, while at the same time my Mac and iPad connected to my cable modem via Ethernet and WiFi, were slow.

I have to think, since I'm apparently the only one who's encountering this, that it's something to do with my IP address. Could it possibly be some sort of firewall having trouble with a range of IP addresses?
