StellarRat Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 (edited) Chris - The last month or two I've had a lot of problems with time outs trying to access the website. It appears to be intermittent, but regular. I'm pretty sure it is something in the Goldhawk or Goldhawk ISP side as the problem has occurred on multiple computers and multiple ISP's on my end. I just thought I'd make you aware. I don't know your infrastructure, but one place to consider is heavy remote access to the server that does your website during work hours. The problem seems to be the worst in the morning here in the Pacific time zone. That's about seven or eight hours behind you guys in England.

erutan Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 Probably more concurrent users now that the beta candidate has been announced? There's a lot of database calls for logged in users vs. being able to cache a more traditional "page". IIRC the site is on shared hosting, which it really shouldn't be at this point.

StellarRat Posted May 15, 2013 Author Share Posted May 15, 2013 OK, it was just down for me for about 20 minutes. So, from about 9:30 PSD to 10:50 PSD 5/15/2013. When it came back up it was going real fast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erutan Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 Yeah, after the process dies it'll start up fast before it kicks back up again. This forum basically needs to be hosted on a VPS (linode, amazon, rackspace). Shouldn't have to be super expensive (~$20-30/mo), but I think we're outgrowing shared hosting.

Solver Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 Yeah, same. If the management is interested, I can offer hosting for the whole place on a dedicated server that has way too many resources free most of the time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StellarRat Posted May 17, 2013 Author Share Posted May 17, 2013 Problem solved by server upgrade. Yea! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 Yup, seems to be working well. The input from various forum members was appreciated though, as I'm not really a web whizz-kid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
