Forum seems slow again.

Batsignal to @arebelspy.

Forum has been slow for me all day on all pages.  Another DDOS attack?

Thanks for all you do as an administrator.

Was slow for me too, but now everything is running smoothly.

Thanks for the ping.

Another user observed the same thing and PM'd me earlier.

We checked, and there's no obvious DDOS attack or anything. The server was rebooted around 1pm Pacific (about an hour before the OP post) to see if performance would improve, and CPU usage is being monitored.

If you were still experiencing it around the time of this post, it may not have worked.

Please post if it remains slow, or not.

Cheers!

Back to normal, thank you!

 

Wow, a phone plan for fifteen bucks!
