G0DZLR Posted August 19, 2008 Share Posted August 19, 2008 is anyone else having the same prob im having with very sluggish load times for the boards? doesnt matter where im logged in, whether it be school or home, or what browser...its as slow as a wet weak... im guessing it has something to do with the new host, just thought i should check if its happening to anyone else. and no, my net is fast and not capped Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/232620-slow-load-times/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
zonbie Posted August 19, 2008 Share Posted August 19, 2008 Same probs as mentioned above. I thought it was a fault at my end??? i have cleared cookies, cache, browsing history, all SAU bookmarks, and still have the same prob. Any ideas? Regards, Steve.

murrayis Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 Nah I think its the change in servers, and its not upto scratch on the optimisation for the number of hits SAU gets. Not sure if its been moved to a cluster or not but its not performing.

Revhead Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 According to another thread, Prankeh currently has the new server up and running alongside the old one, with both pointing to the new database. I'd hazard a guess and say that if you're experiencing speed issues, you're connecting via the old web server. If you're on Windows, try this command at a DOS prompt: ipconfig /flushdns. If that doesn't solve it (or if you're running an OS that doesn't cache DNS, like Linux) you'll just have to wait until your ISP's name servers are updated.

Shaun Posted August 24, 2008 Share Posted August 24, 2008 Hey, has anyone else noticed that the sau site is really really slow. It took about 10 minutes to load on my computer, and sometimes it doesnt connect at all. Are there still technical problems with the new server, or is my computer fcuked?

GTRsean Posted August 24, 2008 Share Posted August 24, 2008 Yep, got the same problem doing most things here. I think there are things still being worked on since the server switch.
