Forum is slow

[Paul]

Invision have (finally) identified an issue in the datacentre which they think is the cause of the issues we've been seeing. They're aiming to get it fixed asap, so fingers crossed...

[Scuba steve]

Forum temporarily unavailable 5 mins ago ,May have been scheduled but it’s the first time I’ve had it in a week 

[Day 10]

Just had the Temporarily Unavailable message.

[Mapantz]

Mega slow for me. 30 second waits.

[Chris.R]

20–30 seconds loading times back again. Has been quite good the last week or two for me after previous issues.

Took 50 seconds to submit my previous post. I had been on page 4. Took 20 Seconds after hitting submit reply to begin load of page 5 then 26 seconds to load page 5.

I'm not sure if there's a network or backbone issue somewhere, because I can see some increased loading times on our monitoring, but nothing to that extent and don't actually have any problems loading pages here. So, with any luck whatever the issue may be, it should be resolved soon. 

[Beverley Lass]

Yes, running slow for me too today.
Each action taking a while to load.

[Sceptical]

Having problems loading pages today. Site is running super slow.

[Shaunado]

Slow/unresponsive for me last couple of hours 

[Chris.R]

Same here, I’m having no problems at all….I’m wondering whether it’s how fast one’s broadband is

Don't think so, I'm on gigabit fibre, and it was slow earlier, but now it's back to normal

I’m the same here super fast ️ SS….it was just food for thought that’s all

I think there have been a few things at play. The initial outbreak of slowness a couple of weeks back was database related and ultimately fixed within a few days.

Beyond that we've had periodic slowdowns and temporarily unavailable messages which are actually very brief so you have to be somewhat unlucky to catch one . This issue is something in the data centre and is the problem that Invision are saying they'll sort soon (very soon I hope). 

Today seems to have been something network related between users and the forum servers, probably. Because the route the a user's connection can take to the server can vary between locations and isp's, some have obviously been fine today, while some saw a spell of slowness. Which by the looks of it has been resolved now.

probably doesn't help much but i'm finding the forum to be running fine.

Here in North Yorkshire very slow 

I think it's my Internet connection rather than the forum. 

The forum is busy.

My house isn't getting warm either for good measure. I don't have central heating either,  just 2 log burners and a back up propane bottle gas fire.

I managed in the 2010 winter .
