Yorkshireman Posted February 25, 2009 Posted February 25, 2009 Been inactive for a while now, I appreciate that, however... :( I have noticed that the IPS Company Forums (this site) has been running really slow for me; both at home (with a throughput speed of 6-Meg) and College (with a throughput speed of over 50-Meg) so I highly doubt it's due to the connection. I won't attempt to diagnose the issue, but I just wondered if other's are suffering from this problem or maybe it's a known problem and is being worked on? I can't check the bugs list because the slowness is that bad. There are a 10+ seconds delay of the site loading. :(
Mark H. Posted February 25, 2009 Posted February 25, 2009 There have been a few posts about that issue. Rebuilding FURL tables (or something like that) occurs the first time(s) you visit. They're also getting hammered by the number of users online. And one IPS employee said a number of background things are being done that we don't see but does have an impact on speed. They're still tuning the board and it'll take some time to get it right. I do have to say that the speed has improved for me in the last half-hour.
Brandon D Posted February 25, 2009 Posted February 25, 2009 It's the opposite for me: Speed was fine all through the day excep for the past half-hour: it has been painfully slow.
Lewis P Posted February 25, 2009 Posted February 25, 2009 Agreed with Brandon. Things have slowed. It took me 3 minutes just to load the index just now. The slowest load I've seen myself.
Strike X Posted February 25, 2009 Posted February 25, 2009 It is slow than IPB 2, we can't hide that fact. It is might to do with rebuilding posts, im sure that has been completed by now? Maybe Search Engine bots is hammering this site because of new skin and furl. If this is not the case, then maybe something wrong with PHP code, something is looping too long.
bfarber Posted February 25, 2009 Posted February 25, 2009 We are aware of the speed. We browse the site too. :) We're doing a bunch of things (rebuilding posts, etc.) and benchmarking things in the background - give it some time. ;) (This is the risk of running beta software, and one of a million reasons we do not advise our customers to do so on their own sites).
Yorkshireman Posted February 25, 2009 Posted February 25, 2009 Oh, glad I'm not alone (that sounds selfish but I promise it isn't :P ). Thanks for the responses.Edit: I have just read a few posts in this topic and now I can see how annoying this topic must be. Sorry. (A)
Strike X Posted February 26, 2009 Posted February 26, 2009 Speed is much better now, not fast as IPB 2.x but much better.
chuckf Posted February 26, 2009 Posted February 26, 2009 Very slow for me and I got this the first time I tried to open this thread: <b>Fatal error</b>: Out of memory (allocated 13369344) (tried to allocate 122880 bytes) in <b>/home/forumsi/public_html/cache/skin_cache/cacheid_1/skin_topic.php</b> on line <b>117</b>

Management Charles Posted February 26, 2009 Management Posted February 26, 2009 No need for running commentary on it's fast/it's slow :lol: The speed will fluctuate a lot over the next few weeks as we make changes, test things, etc.
teraßyte Posted February 26, 2009 Posted February 26, 2009 Charles are the posts still being rebuilt? :unsure:
Strike X Posted February 26, 2009 Posted February 26, 2009 Do you think it because HEAVY used of PHP Classes that has effected the performance?
Discorev Posted February 26, 2009 Posted February 26, 2009 IPB 2 uses PHP Classes, so I wouldn't have thought that would be what was effecting it :lol:
Y0Y0 Posted February 26, 2009 Posted February 26, 2009 Like a broken record. I think we all know by now this site has slowed down a little, lets just give it time while they do their thing ;)
LKW-Allrad Posted February 26, 2009 Posted February 26, 2009 For me to open this forensite (from Germany) its faster then the 2.x :thumbsup:
media Posted February 27, 2009 Posted February 27, 2009 It is much faster than 2x for me too.. Somehow... :)
Qwerty7500 Posted February 27, 2009 Posted February 27, 2009 Well, IP.Board beta 3 runs pretty fast from here (France), even faster than before I would say ;)
Jmiz9000 Posted March 1, 2009 Posted March 1, 2009 wish they would put the timer on the bottom back on to see how fast the page loads
bfarber Posted March 2, 2009 Posted March 2, 2009 wish they would put the timer on the bottom back on to see how fast the page loads Why? So we can get a bunch of posts then posting the page load generation times? ;)
Axel Wers Posted March 7, 2009 Posted March 7, 2009 Although sometimes this board is running fine, generally is slower than "old" 2.3.6 board. This "issue" is worrying me because my board (2.3.6) run fast and I don't want slower board although ipb3 features are much more better :unsure:
sparc Posted March 7, 2009 Posted March 7, 2009 http://forums.invisionpower.com/topic/281636-wow-the-new-look-invision-board-is-superb/page__view__findpost__p__1789073 they're working on it. Just have to wait and see where we are at in Release Candidate stage.
