Slow Load

Well, two things I found tonight. One, the backup has been starting at 1am instead of 4am like it should. Things will always be a tad sluggish during the backup but few people notice it around 4am.

Also I noticed that some nightly database backups for the last 3 months were being left on the server. That was causing the full backup that runs every night to back up all of those back ups. Simply put my backup file was 33GB instead of 5GB because of all of the stray database backups that weren't being deleted. Trying to backup a 33GB file was causing us to run out of RAM and causing all sorts of server issues. Make sense? :)

The backup for tonight is already in progress, but let me know if issues still exist past tonight.

So I wasn't entirely crazy, that's a relief. You the man Freak. Too bad we can't get Larkin to stop stealing your kills, OH WAIT, that's you stealing his. :)

Yesterday afternoon it was very slow to load, thought it was the number of people on, but today it is slow as well for me. :dunno:

Yeah,usually it's just here and there.But it seems to be across the whole content of the nation today.

It wasn't this slow yesterday with 4,000+ volnation
members hammering the keys.

You guys still having issues? Obviously yesterday was very high traffic and today has been much of the same, especially this morning around the Janzen Jackson signing.

Please let me know if it continues. I am looking into some possible server upgrades if needed.

It was fine today. Yesterday it would just load only the background and nothing else would come up at times. Who knows?

FWIW, the only problems I have, when I have slow loads, are google ads, and of course, the nightly backup since I'm 5-6 hours behind TN time. (that's alot of commas...)

It's usually very fast, with google ads being the usual culprit, other than backups. (yes, i said the same thing a different way)

Hmmmm. If the google ads are causing issues I can have them load independently.

As for backups, I'm looking into throttling that back so that the entire site isn't backing up every night.

just an update, during all the BB insanity, I only had 2 slowdowns, and both were google ads related.

it was pretty slow this afternoon too (around 2pm I believe). Just thought I'd let you know

Noticed this morning that it was loading really slow when I was on my blackberry. I thought it was the phone at first, but every other site would load fine.

Please let me know if it continues. This is the first I've heard of anyone having issues. Many times it can be an issue with a network connection between some ISP's and VolNation. That's why I always ask to see if any others are experiencing any problems.

Thanks for the feedback.

This is going on again. It started last night and is still doing it this morning.

Did this clear up? Anyone else experience it? I was on a good portion of the morning and I personally didn't have any issues.

Please let me know.

It seems a little better now. Not sure what the problem was.
