Board access

Is it just me or is the board getting harder to access. Pages take a long time to load or don't load at all and I'm constantly hitting the reload button. It only started doing this recently.

It just took 3 tries to send this message

Re: Board access

Not just you. There was some recent changes/updates to address server performance issues that we were seeing occasionally in the past few months, but the recent work had created some issues and other performance issues. I do not have a lot of information at this time, but there have been reports from others.

Thanks.

Re: Board access

Add mine. Sometimes long response time, other times it times out for a few minutes.

Re: Board access

OK. Just so I know it's nothing to do with my net access. I have a few other sites that occasionally lag but not like TGO has been doing lately.

I did a trace to your IP address and I'm seeing a lot of packet loss and latency on a sprintlink near you. Due to the way the Internet works, you may only see that issue with certain sites and not with others, due to routing.

I don't deny we've had some performance issues, recently, to which they have been improved upon and we're still working on some software issues. But I don't believe the issue is as bad as it once was, which personal experience and other input gives me that assessment.

Thanks.
