Forum page load keeps getting slower and slower...

what is the problem? this lag of page loading is getting worse, has dn downgraded their servers?

at least several times a day - it takes 20-45 seconds to load a page!

I have noticed this as well over the past few days and have sent a message to our host.

Also have seen some noticeable slowness recently.

Chuck, the database might need to be re-indexed. After a lot of posting data gets scattered, the way a disk becomes fragmented.

This forum is working much better for me comparing to DP and NP
DP is worse than ever.

Thanks, this was never an issue on this forum. I have noticed this lag issue for 3+ months now. It happens on a daily basis, one minute its fast the next minute it takes a minute to load and sometimes it does not. I need to exit and come back in.

Thanks for the quick reply.

I keep getting 403 page forbidden errors and almost always have to reload the page.

it took me 8 minutes to be able to get back on dnforum - the page would not load!

I decided to swithc back to internet explorer to browse dnforum and guess what!!!! its much faster! i tried firefox several times since my last issue and noticed the same problem! Explorer is faster and better for dnforum

I find NP at least 50% faster than DNForum. It takes so long to open a thread now I just skim over them. It has been a while now, not good for business

Coincidence.

I agree it is very bad at times lately. I have sent a second request on this to have it checked out.

It gets slow for me, too at times.

**afloat.com** · 04-10-2009, 10:31 AM

I have a high speed cable connection and it took 45 seconds to load this page from the time I clicked on it. I have also noticed a real slowdown in the last 60 days. I can only imagine what someone with a dialup connection has to do...
