(old)Puppy Linux Discussion Forum

Try restarting your browser. That works for me when the Internet gets real slow.

I shut down the computer every night...

" the browser responds fast with other sites. Only murga-linux is slow."

I have to agree Flash.

I always use different browsers.
I always delete history etc.

It's not great.

Chris.

For the record: for me, too, the forum has been very slow sometimes during the past few days. It's ok at the moment.

Still bad Monday 9am Sydney.

All other websites fine.

Running the latest Slimjet browser....no difference.

Weeks ago when John did an upgrade it made a big difference.

Something is borking it lately.

No disrespect....Chris.

As I understand it, what John did wasn't an upgrade. He switched providers, which involved switching servers, and while he was at it he tweaked a few settings. No really substantial changes to the forum.

I have no idea why the forum seems slow to some people and not others. For instance, it seems normal to me. Sometimes it responds instantly and sometimes it takes a few seconds. That's about par for the course these last ten years or so.

Maybe PM this to some Aussie Puppy types.

See if there has been any hiccups just on the OZ side.

Cheers....Chris.

There's been some delays here when clicking on URLs within the forum.

Me as well, from Michigan/USA, for the past week or so. Most times clicked thread links take 3-7 seconds before responding and loading. No biggie! Just a little annoying.

Hey,

You guys are right

Someone was exploiting a a flaw on a diagnostic page and pretty much killing the server ...
Why do people even do this ?

I guess this has been going for a week

I have disabled the offending functionality and I believe it is fixed.

Please let me know how it is now.

For the record, the forum is on a better server, more up-to-date OS and software, and has been tweaked ... So it should be better.
The automated backups do slow the site down a bit, but that is once every few days for about a minute.

Someone please PM me if serious issues are encountered again.

Cheers

Thanks John.

Seems to be working for me now that John did his magic.

Thanks John!!!

Thanks for providing this forum!!!!!!!

Thanks big fella...sorry to trouble you.

Chris.

Yep - appears all back to working well for me, too. Thank you, Mr. Murga!

Forum very delayed/slow today, FWIW

update- All browsers about a 10 second delay between requesting page and being served.

Hello perdido, Flash and all.

Same here.

But could be the network or a number of things, because I'm experiencing
the same type of delay with my webmail this morning.

BFN.

Yup forum is slow for me too for last 4-5 hours since I came to work.
Accessing on Mobile, from in India.

Other sites are working Ok.
Only forum is lagging.

Forum very slow.

Same here (W. Europe, Benelux).

All other sites around world (checked quite a few, from U.S. to Asia to Europe) are working fine, but the forum is on the point of collapsing as it is just NOT responding....dragging like a 3 legged dog.

Our luck, it's probably hackers hitting whomever murga uses to host this site & thus replacing every uploaded script, pics, etc, etc, etc with their own stuff that looks the same but...gulp......is not

But, hey, on the sunny side, maybe it is just a murga specific issue. We need to know who the hosting service is, to see if other complaints are appearing about them hosting other sites.

Anyone know who hosts this site?
