JDorama.com Site Speed

Here we go again: Anyone notice any sluggishness in accessing Jdorama?

Been having problems the last couple of days submitting posts, accessing threads, etc... Weird. :sweat:

I noticed it, it's not just you. About an hour or two ago it got slower and slower then choked.
But then when it came back in a few mintues it was fast.

edit: dang, looks like it's happening again. I'm getting ping times of over 1000ms. :bleh:

Guh, it happened again just now. :grumble:

Yeah, I'm getting extreme sluggishness when posting and doing mod functions ever since last night.

Ugh, the site seems to be hiccuping again: submitting a post is taking forever... :sweat:

It must be happening to others, 'cause I've seen a rash of double posts lately... :banghead:

i was just about to say...my ability to post has slowed down quite a bit.

Um, searching the database is taking over 5 minutes for me :banghead:

Yeah, just trying to browse the site has been a trying experience. :banghead: :banghead:

At one point my browser stopped trying to load it.... :doh:

Whew, I just decided to log in since the speed started to return to normal. It was weird, my browser would neither display pages or return an error saying the page (or site) does not exist.

Yeah, some hiccups here and there, but it's working again at least. *knocks on wood* :sweat:

Correct, because it was working, just very slowly.

Opening the TCP connection was slower than normal but still took a few seconds at most. That's why no error is reported within the first couple of minutes.

However, then getting the HTTP response in answer to the request could take many minutes at the maximum delay I saw last night. If your browser had a high enough timeout setting, then it would eventually get the response and display the page. Otherwise, the browser should have displayed an error once the timeout was reached.

Hmm, I've always wondered: is there a way/where to change that timeout?

Well, if you use firefox (and you should, since MSIE is such a piece of poo :P ), then type "about:config" in the location field and hit return.

Then you can type "timeout" in the filter field and it will show you the timeouts you can alter.

The 2 timeouts you probably want to consider would be network.http.request.timeout and network.http.connect.timeout. You can try increasing them to whatever you desire.

As for me, I probably wouldn't muck with it. I think the defaults are pretty reasonable, and if the site is that slow, I'll just come back later.
I don't really want to work with a slow site as it will just make it slower. :sweat:

If using Mozilla/Firefox, go to about:config (the board won't let me enter a link to it) and change the network.http.request.timeout and/or network.http.connect.timeout settings. You'll see there are lots of other settings that can be adjusted, too.

For Internet Explorer, create a ReceiveTimeout entry using regedit in [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/c/InternetSettings]. The exact registry path will vary from machine to machine.

Can't do that: Microsoft is king here. :sweat: :sweat:

I suppose you're right... Gets frustrating when I can't get my Jdorama fix... :beaten:

Anyone experiencing slow connections these days?

Its ridiculously slow at times, but the CPU ain't clogged up. Looks like a network issue..

Things have been relatively okay here in dialup land... Sometimes when I post, it's slow or unresponsive... But not nearly as bad as before.

I've had some connectivity problems while doing the LJ forum cleanup. Things look okay now, however.
