Guest hitoallusa Posted April 29, 2013 Posted April 29, 2013 Lookin please come work with me.. I love your problem solving skills and detail oriented statements. Also you have compassion and love toward people around you. Safari has a 'developer' toolkit which I just ran during the latest delayed page opening. It took an agonizing 1.3 minutes to load an element called "index.php". That seems to be the entry point to the Message Forum. Sometimes there are a few elements that load before "index.php", mostly jpegs, and they come from cache. Therefore, they load quickly, and that's probably what lets the progress bar move a short distance right away. But then it hangs, waiting for the "index.php" element to load. "index.php" appears to be a fairly small ~90kb text/html file and, when it actually starts loading, it does so in a second or two. And everything that loads after "index.php" loads in a matter of seconds. So, I think if you ask the programmers to figure out what makes the "index.php" file occasionally reluctant to start loading, you'll have solved your problem. Quote

Guest FourAces Posted April 30, 2013 Posted April 30, 2013 This morning the site seemed to be moving along more appropriately but this evening its been hit and miss. Quote
TotallyOz Posted April 30, 2013 Author Posted April 30, 2013 It will be hit and miss for a bit as we have installed slow logging queeries on the site. This lets us know exactly where the slow issues are but it slows down my entire server. It was a needed step and I hope they have some more detail on this in the next day or two. I am trying everything possible to resolve this. It is very odd though as I have several sites with the exact same code and none of them are slow or having issues. It is only this site. My programmers have been working overtime on this but as they work, they are taking away things that were done to improve the site in the past few months one by one to try to test the issue. My apologies for the inconvenience. Quote

My apologies for the inconvenience. I know you're working hard on this, and we appreciate it. Are all the sites on the site server? Are the pages being loaded the same size, and are they created dynamically with each click? I may be wrong, but it seems to me that the problem occurs more often when I try to open a forum rather than when I'm going to the next unread topic. Quote
Members lookin Posted April 30, 2013 Members Posted April 30, 2013 It is very odd though as I have several sites with the exact same code and none of them are slow or having issues. Pardon me, but if it's the exact same code, wouldn't they be the exact same sites? One thing I learned from the small amount of programming I've done over the years is that even a single line of code, or even a byte, or even a bit, can make a world of difference in how a program behaves. The only other thing I learned is that I'm glad I'm not a programmer. AdamSmith 1 Quote

And the location & quantity of the objects & data can impact performance. Quote

And the location & quantity of the objects & data can impact performance. Speaking out of pure ignorance I was thinking the same thing. In particular, that the dynamic content management going on here on the forums would seem to be a different computational burden and code situation than serving up static content on porn sites. lookin 1 Quote

TotallyOz Posted April 30, 2013 Author Posted April 30, 2013 Can others check and see if this issue is solved? The programmers tell me they think they have it fixed. (Again) Quote

Guest FourAces Posted April 30, 2013 Posted April 30, 2013 Come on OZ we're not gonna fall for that placebo effect But the forums are very responsive this morning. However, for me, they were that way yesterday morning too. If tonight goes just as smooth then it will appear the problem fixed. I'll report back Quote
Members JKane Posted April 30, 2013 Members Posted April 30, 2013 Did several posts and opened a bunch of threads as new pages, haven't noticed any lag yet. Yay! TotallyOz 1 Quote
Members lookin Posted April 30, 2013 Members Posted April 30, 2013 Quick for me too. So what was the culprit? TotallyOz 1 Quote
Guest FourAces Posted April 30, 2013 Posted April 30, 2013 Well as I mentioned I wanted to see how it did this evening and all is well. Looks as if problem solved Quote
TotallyOz Posted April 30, 2013 Author Posted April 30, 2013 So what was the culprit? We made several changes in MySQL settings after we did some modifications to the code. They said it worked but I heard this from them 10 times before. LOL lookin 1 Quote
