I've experienced it for the past week now.

I don't think it's on my end as it only happens here?

SearChart · 9 November 2014, 08:24 PM

It's been slow here the past three days.

Old Expat Beast · 9 November 2014, 08:28 PM

Yes, last few days.

bayerische · 9 November 2014, 08:29 PM

Today it's very slow. I'm too fast for it, so I'm double posting now.

Better double posting then nothing.

Don't think that I don't appreciate it.

Yes - been slow for about a week.
Notice it most on the "Never-Ending Story" where a minute or two makes a big difference in sequence of replies.

bayerische · 9 November 2014, 09:24 PM

Could be all the pics of Benz's and Rolex's.

padi56 · 9 November 2014, 09:33 PM

Yes myself have noticed the of slowing of the forum at times over last few days but we sure do put a lot of data load on server.

I thought Stav was just slowing Mon down.

Old Expat Beast · 9 November 2014, 10:23 PM

Those wedding/anniversary and Benz posts with about 100 pics each went up around the same time. Do mega posts like that make a difference?

Lol-x · 9 November 2014, 10:37 PM

I'm trying to get to the bottom of this.
I think it is related to some third party spider's who are putting extra demands on the server, but I'm still looking into it.

Thanks for letting us know Steve and keep up the good work.

PS. I never believed for a second you did this to slow me down.

Lol-x · 9 November 2014, 10:56 PM

Apart from search engines, bulletin boards from all over the world send out spiders/robots to download threads/photos from TRF.
Anyway, it should be a bit faster now that I've blocked some of them off.

HL65 · 9 November 2014, 10:57 PM

Thanks Steve and it is much faster today!

locutus49 · 9 November 2014, 11:10 PM

Yes, at first I thought it was my computer, but through process of elimination, it came back to TRF.

Thanks for all you and the Mods do Steve. I use Tapatalk a good deal to read/post. Does their software add much to the overhead?

I only ask because when I use the gallery feature to view pics it seems to keep flipping back and forth. Not a rant - just sharing in case that behavior is indicative of anything amiss with their hosting pics.

Rockrolex · 9 November 2014, 11:34 PM

And I thought it was my computer, which is about 5 years old (ancient by today's standards).

brandrea · 9 November 2014, 11:36 PM

Ripping along today .... Was slow the last few days though

Rockrolex · 9 November 2014, 11:38 PM

It does seem faster now.

I agree; I was unable to upload pictures for several hours as well.

Be safe.

dysondiver · 10 November 2014, 12:00 AM

pictures are wizing today.

SearChart · 10 November 2014, 06:01 PM

It's fixed for me.

MonBK · 10 November 2014, 06:07 PM

Today it's like a speeding freight train.

Lol-x · 11 November 2014, 12:41 AM

Good to know it is fast again.
