    I just restarted the container. Looks like it's running faster to me. Responses seem very quick now. What are you lot seeing?

    It's off and on for me, but I do notice more "on" than "off". I'll have to give it a longer test to say for certain.

    All right, I'm going to do this layer by layer. When you encounter problems, check out http://www.wordforge.net/static.html and note how long it takes to load. It should be pretty much instant. If it's not, tell me how long it takes and how fast and reliable your connection is, and what time you tried to access the page.

    It seems to be working quite good for now! :) Pages take maybe 2 seconds to load. I had a hiccup about a minute ago where it took maybe 5 seconds, but it might also be my end.

    The link above loaded instantaneously after that.

    Been getting significant hangups for about the last ten minutes, but the page you linked there loads almost instantly.

    Ah. I didn't read the whole post. No. The board was working fine.

    Now, at 20:10 I started to notice pronounced slowdowns in replying to threads, but I'm still able to get here quickly and easily.

    K. Now that I'm off vicodin, I'll try tweaking MySQL a bit.

    Unfortunately, I haven't actually done the tweaking yet. :marathon:

    Going to right now though; board may be offline/slow/unresponsive/DB errors for up to 2 minutes.

    Is it my ISP or has Wrodforge been very glitchy lately? Especially tonight?

    Wordforge has been both difficult to access and quite slow for at least the last hour or so.

    I've been having a hell of a time posting my D&D summaries. I don't know if it's the length affecting it (that's what she said) but it is taking a really long time to reply to a post. Surfing the site seems fine, however.

    SQL crapped out this morning but re-started automatically. That might be what you saw.

    The board cornered me in a dark alley, beat the crap out of me and took my wallet. Inside were my ID and credit card (with a balance of 11 cents), a ticket stub from seeing Star Trek XI, a Winn-Dixie card, and a packet of sweet tarts.

    A gateway timeout is normally a problem on your end. You go through a router which acts as a "gateway," and it is timing out.
