Site Sluggishness - RedsZone.com - Cincinnati Reds Fans' Home for Baseball Discussion

Boss-Hog · 02-21-2013, 07:31 AM

All,

Does anyone besides me regularly encounter slow speeds on RedsZone? Assuming it's not just me, I believe this is what's contributing to the frequent double posts, as well. I've opened many tickets with our host, and each essentially ends in them stating they're seeing no problem(s) on their end. There is another option I can try, but before I go that route, I want to ensure it's not just on my end.

Please let me know either way how the normal site speed is for you...

I have seen where it takes a long time "thinking" after using the quick reply box.

I'm experiencing the sluggishness you're referring to as well. When you made your original post it was indeed almost unusable for about a half hour. It is better now. Did they do something at that time? It has been loading slowly this morning

They shouldn't have, as I didn't make a request, but I'm experiencing the slowness, as well.

I just tried to do a three line quick reply to the Joe Gar retirement thread in ORG and after a slow 2 mins of waiting I got to the "done" page but nothing else. I closed out and tried to reload and that was slow as well. In the end, it didn't take at all as I can't see that it even went through. That was at 10:19am today

I use Tapatalk at least half my time on the site, and while it's also slow on there, it's not unresponsive, at least for me.

Thanks...I'm going to first try purging some very old posts (it's been forever since I last did that) and see if that helps before moving on to other options.

I pruned a large amount of very old threads from the Sun Deck, and unfortunately, I did more than I should have at one time because it took a couple hours, and I still don't even think it finished, as the process appeared to be "stuck". At first glance, the site performance doesn't appear to be any better, so I'll prune threads later but in much smaller batches.

I apologize for the unexpectedly long down time.

Sea Ray · 02-21-2013, 02:43 PM

It's still bad unfortunately. Just opening this thread took over 2 mins for me

919191 · 02-21-2013, 02:44 PM

Still extremely slow here. I'll try later.

Boss-Hog · 02-21-2013, 03:01 PM

I was trying to prune a very small amount of threads, and I couldn't even do that. At this point, I've taken our host's suggestion and disabled all custom addons so we're running stock vBulletin. Please see the announcement I just posted for more information, and let me know if it's improved at all, stayed the same or gotten worse.

I have been having the sluggishness as well. It took me a very long time to be able to open up ny page on the site.

Chip R · 02-21-2013, 04:13 PM

It's still pretty sluggish.

RichRed · 02-21-2013, 04:16 PM

Very slow for me all day today.
