Re: Slow forum
It's crazy here in the Seattle area. This is the first time I could even access the site for the last couple of days. And it takes a looooong time to load each page.

Re: Slow forum
A number of things actually, there was an issue with cloudflare certificate chain then some corruption of the configuration of the DB server likely from reboots. . After resolving that and a few other changes it seems stable enuff for now. But it's also been a silent but gradual doubling of traffic over the last year. I hadn't even realized we were maxing out bandwidth.

Re: Slow forum
Thanks for the fix Tank -- It works great now. I'm wondering though, do we need to do a fundraiser to purchase more resources, or whatever?

Re: Slow forum
we are in good shape there. We are pretty prudent on costs.

Re: Slow forum
If anything they are trying to bite into our userbase.
AutoHotkey is over 20 years old now!

They have bigger fish to fry.
our recent struggles were a combo of our growing popularity. couple years ago we averaged 1-1.5 million hits a day now it is closing in on 3 million. the server performance for the size of servers just barely handling it. then a momentary but several day long blip in Cloudflare issued certs
So no this wasnt even an attack.
I have updated certs and dramatically increased our hardware to accommodate for the growth.
even so our costs remain very low to maintain hosting and before anyone asks. of course, donations are welcome, but we currently have a steady and more than adequate amount in reserve and coming in. I also keep the hosting accounts paid 6-10 months in advance. the few times since i took over (11 years ago) and we raised money that we were even a little short I cover for less than a nice dinner date with the wife. i think it has only happened twice.
truth of the matter is, without all the typical nonsense many others do hosting a web site is pretty cheap. volunteers moderate, JoeDF handles alot of the Server admin work, and if some kind of code update to account for new issues is needed or something he can't figure out, i handle it. Lexikos handles the development efforts, and Ragnar handles documentation.
at some point i am going to modify the forum to add AI to assist with new posts and moderating some of the more common junk. but its a time based effort and i do work full time. Maybe next time i am between gigs I will get it done

Re: Slow forum
No joke... I have just over 1,000 posts. I'll bet 800 of those are Mike trying to explain things to me over the last 8 years.

Super slow in the Seattle area. That has been the case periodically for several weeks.

Re: Slow forum
I've rebooted the DB server yet again. I think we may need to upgrade our db server.
I've also turned on Under Attack mode, and it's very fast for me.
