Hi

Have other's noticed that Rootschat performance is getting sluggish again. At lunch time today it just slowed to a stop and it's now very slow again

is there anything we can do at all to help  ???

I've found it very slow today, I can go off & do something else while I'm waiting, & I'm on broadband! It must be a real pain for those on dial-up.

I've just spent ages trying to modify a message, Kerry, and it wasn't my typing  ::) ::) ::)

I'm off for now for a while  :(

Sorry folks - no look ups, no restoration.......

Maybe it will pick up then  :)

I had to give up this morning because the site was so slow, and that was between 6.30 & &  7AM ;D  The number of people on the board were less than half of what they are now :-\

I'm watching  :) I came in as a guest  :D

However, it's still a bit slow. It's either those frames on photo restoration or it's to do with what we used to call paging. It's not the number of users but what they are doing. RC has been going now for 3-4 years. How many threads? How many are accessed at one time?  The server is thrashing away trying to load a wider and wider range of threads by the minute.

A difficult problem  :-\

Well that's what I think  :(
