Site Speed - Feedback Thread Please give us some feedback in this thread. Tell us when the site is hauling ***, and when it is unreasonably slow. We are gauging the time frames of each. We have done some tuning this morning and the site seems very quick for me today.
Thanks

Re: Site Speed - Feedback Thread I've definitely noticed the site is moving faster today. I've been checking the site every 15-30min since I got up this morning and there really haven't been any slow times for me at all. Excellent!
Re: Site Speed - Feedback Thread Since the 4-5 changes we made the site has been markedly and consistently faster for me. Right now I'd say the site is 95% as fast as it's ever been, just having occasional spikes of activity that will hold it up here and there.
Please keep responding.

Re: Site Speed - Feedback Thread I just did a search for the word "the" in all forums in all post and it was kinda slow with that. 
Just kidding. The site has been decent today but, not the fastest I've ever noticed. Most pages are only taking a couple of seconds to load it seems like which is not bad.

Re: Site Speed - Feedback Thread It's weird. In a 30 minute time frame, I may have 5 pages that load immediately, 20 pages that load very slow and 5 pages that never load (404 error). It seems random. It is waaaay slower than the old software for me now and changing the number of posts to display had no effect. It was set to "forum default" before, now it is "two weeks".
Re: Site Speed - Feedback Thread It took over a minute to load this thread for me. I'm on a cable modem.

Re: Site Speed - Feedback Thread It took my just under a minute to load this thread, and I'm on cable on a very high end computer. I guess it is peak hours though. It seems it's always this slow though. The changes may have made it a little faster, because I would click on a thread and then go get a drink or something, that took 2 minutes or so. Oh well, lets see how long it takes to post this.

Re: Site Speed - Feedback Thread I think some of you are giving too much credit to the old software. I've run speed tests on both softwares since the beginning of this site, and the old software was acting much slower than this one is today.
I remember the last software would take like 15 seconds to pull up a reply window, and then it would sometimes take 2 minutes to actually get sent thru.

Re: Site Speed - Feedback Thread By the way, my last reply took 2 seconds for the reply window. 1 second for the "message sent" screen. 8 seconds for the original thread screen to return.

Re: Site Speed - Feedback Thread I agree something still isn't right. There is no way that you can check a thread, every page opens within 2 seconds, then go back to that same thread one minute later and it takes 2 minutes to load each page.

Re: Site Speed - Feedback Thread I'm on DSL. During the middle of the day it takes about 20-30 secs to load a page. Just now (10 PM) each page takes about a minute and a half or longer. LS1.com forum pages usually load in 10 secs or less for me unless of course you get the dreaded sever busy page. I've also adjusted the 'aged threads to be displayed' in my settings. Well I'm gonna
