Is it me or is Subsim having some serious server issues lately?

Paul Riley · 03-06-10, 03:01 PM

Over the last couple of days I have noticed some quite serious lag here at Subsim,with pages sometimes taking as long as 5 mins to load,or may not load at all! .I hate to gripe about this but it can be frustrating.I initially thought the site may be going under some sort of maintenance,is this true?

Thanks.

I checked the site yesterday and got a mesage about mantinace being done. It advised me that I should come back later. Prior to that I had noticed some longer loading times, never as long as you have reported though. After the mantinance I haven't noticed any real slow load times. Could be that the servers needed a good cleening out and now things are all shiney and like new.

NEAL has a new thread just below this one.........He is doing some major rocket science stuff with his server crew.....

and you mustn't forget the buzzing SH5-subforum.

Yeah,I guess so.Every one has rushed home from work just to get a decent SH3 session in tonight

Neal has cited the additional server traffic from the SH5 boards as the reason. He is working on adding an extra server tomorrow.

Indeed. He also said we have something like 20 times the normal traffic at the moment, thanks to SH5.. heh

Paul Riley · 03-07-10, 04:07 PM

Dont know what the fuss is with SH5,from what i've read so far it doesnt sound like my cup of tea

Good that an extra server may be set up for us.

Server is feeling much better today
