what to do if this site is slow
Aug 2nd, 2013 at 9:55pm
 
If this site slows down, please do a ping test here:

http://tools.pingdom.com

Please save the results, then post them here at the next opportunity. This will help me to tell if the problem is with the server or your internet connection. It will also help me to make a case with the host people that they need to sort this out.

EG:

It slowed down completely last night at about 10pm.  I tried a remote ping and no packets were returned.

Did you reformat the text yourself, or is there any easy way to copy and paste it like that?

Yes, it was quite slow yesterday and it seemed to "co-incide" with some apparently "heavy traffic", in terms of "Views", for example -
Thread                                        Posts   Views
How the left mismanages a business  1      191
Abbott Robbed Of The Nobel Peace Prize. 2      245
Political Rorting/Snouts in Trough!   2      225
New Labor ruined our personal wealth 7      603
Abbott drops in the polls, AGAIN       23      650
Abbott Pledges Money for US Troop Rotations 4      266
Andrei to a T                               17      476
Rudd Stopped The Boats!              19      696
Morrison 'Discovers' He Rorted System Too 8      468

Which seems "somewhat" higher than the usual traffic/Views.

So, have WE gained an extra viewing audience?
If so, hello ASIO, CIA &/or whoever else, who has now decided to keep an eye on us???

The number of members currently online is the best indication of current load. It is at the bottom of the main page. I suspect it has increased since they changed the settings - ie you speed the site up, more people visit until it slows down again.

The bots probably cause the biggest load.

Then this:

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
