Why are the forums running so slowly?

Every time I try to access the forums, there is this really long delay before stuff happens. Does the database need a cleaning or something?

Things work ... eventually ... but it's the time delay that's getting really suspicious, since it happens pretty much every single time.

Maybe they need to upgrade to the Raspberry Pi3 instead of running on a Pi A model....

At least it wasn't a Raspberry Pi Zero. ;)
Anyways, they got jipped. Should have gone with a PINE A64, 1/2 the price, and slightly faster.

>_> I'd be willing to build

>_> I'd be willing to build and provide a basic system with a bit more power than a raspberry pi, banana pi or better. Actually I've got one upstairs that's only being used for the occasional folding run. However, due to the consumer nature of my internet service I'd have to ship it to some place with a static IP.

I think they are renting a remote server to host the website. So I'm going to chalk up the recent slow down to increased interest and usage.

It's been better the last

It's been better the last couple days after I posted this. Before, it was like wait 10-20 seconds for pages to load/resolve. Now it's happening much faster.

Let us know if it slows down again. Have been working on the back-end.

You can only expect so much

You can only expect so much of things built out of PHP, Rails, or whatever on the back end: you're trading reduced performance for reduced development time and maintenance. It's really hard to make a high-performance community site.
