I was on at 20:30 - occasionally very slow going between pages (20+ seconds).

Yup started slowing around 20:10, started a long reply to a thread, posted it, the site hung for over 2 minutes then returned a blank page, and my
post lost into the big wide ethernet...
So did it again, and it was slow, very slow, but posted OK and didnt time out that time.
I also tried to U2U around 22:00, and again that 'timed out'.
I was also getting an error and indeed the Netrino Logo (top right) was missing.
Went back on around 23:00 and all was fine and dandy......

If people say what they think a reasonable respose time for accessing the forum or any specific area is (ie loading a page) I might be able to setup
some monitoring at work. We could setup an sla and a schedule for the hours to suit and I could generate a report for you to illustrate any slow
responses/downtimes?!

Hmm tis proper broke now 
Have you noticed that if you click on forum (front page) it just brings you back to front page?
Click on 'recent topics' on the front page and some work some don't. On the pages that do work, click on forum (top left) and you
get sent to 'front page' again.......
I have left a message for ChrisW, but is probably tres busy at this time of day...
I only managed to get to this page by clicking on my profile 'find posts' by this user.......
Any one else have the above problems, or, is it just moi?

Note that if the site breaks in such a way that the wrong pages are coming up, there's probably someone working away behind the scenes!!
Hopefully we're getting somewhere now

how come this is the only(?) area of the forum where you don't get the option to add an attachment to a new post or reply?
if you're still working on it can you try and sort out the permissions error on www.locostbuilders.co.uk/users/ned? there was some data on there
that i don't have copies of anywhere else
ta.
ps i was just playing around with setting up some synthetic scripts to monitor the response times when LB went down earlier:

The downtime was for a database re-index
I can't sort those files out I'm afraid. You know who that's down to.....

are there any old backups that could be restored? I have a feeling the files never came back after the last rebuild when the site was hacked or
upgraded (I forget which it was)
the url did open for a while with a forbidden html error on it though..

As this site is currently being tweaked, is it possible to have the members and guests online reinstated on the bottom of the page? I used to find it
extremely useful.

No. Please stop asking for it! I've told you all before it won't be coming back.
As for load - all is fine until about 8.15-8.45 when the load just shoots through the roof with everyone logging on. Luke has done a load more work
on the database this morning so we'll see if things improve this evening. If not, we'll have to throw some hardware at the problem!
Cheers, Chris

Hi Chris. Thanks for your efforts.
Did you see this thread the other day? A reply ended up timed before the thread was started, was very odd.
http://www.locostbuilders.co.uk/viewthread.php?tid=53158
This is similar to a few of the rarer database problems, ie posts not appearing or appearing twice.

Well, it's just gone 8:00pm, and the site's zipping along!
Maybe I'm just lucky, but it does seem faster.

First time in a while that I've not had any data base error messages. Site's generally speedy too. Which is nice.

Looking at the graphs of server load for this evening, it does appear to have been a lot better. Luke optimised all the database tables for me today,
and recreated all the indexes, which should mean queries are a lot faster with less load on the machine. Although there is still a peak around 8pm,
it was far less today than previous days!
Take a look at the graph below and you'll see the difference. Note the peak at about 10am this morning was Luke rebuilding the database!

Many thanks Chris and _luke.....
I had no 'time outs' or database errors last night at all, in fact, not even a 'slowing down' whilst pages were loading.
Very well done chaps....

I had one "significant pause" at about 21:00, but as it was a one-off I'm prepared to put that down to a network hiccup.
Apart from that - it's a whole load better!
Well done chaps...

p.d. chrisw what was/is the reason for not putting back those user info in the corner??
needless to say that if we builders / donateers vote for it to come back you can only bend and put it back...
