Re: still slow, and search not working

Maybe it is Browser related, I use firefox and it happens to me often.
I believe in a earlier thread about this he wanted times that it would happen like if it stalled at 1:32 PM he wanted to know, do you still want us to keep track of times, if so maybe there should be a thread or something for it.

Re: still slow, and search not working

It's slow for me occasionally, usually not too bad. What I've noticed recently with IE is that after I visit a page I hit the back button but nothing happens. When I hit back the first time, the status bar says "opening page http://media.fastclick.netblahablahblah" and then it changes to "127.0.0.1" but I never actually go back to the previous page. When I click the back button a second time, it works fine.

Re: still slow, and search not working

The search has worked the last few times I used it.

Have you guys found any problem causing slowness? When I think back it may have started when you guys switched to the new server. I really cant remember it happening before that.

Re: still slow, and search not working

Not sure if it helps but I have noticed that if I make the search criteria very specific it tends to fail more often and time out.

For example " oil pump drive shaft" failed miserably yesterday afternoon between 4 and 4:30 EST.
When I switched to "oilpump driveshaft" it seemed to like life better.
I don't know if the search feature just trys to find each individual word and gets bogged down or what.

Its not a Firefox thing either, as I had the same problems posting today at work with IE as I do at home with Firefox.

Re: still slow, and search not working

So it looks like a lot of people are having this problem. Have you guys been able to look into it? Any updates? Anything?

Re: still slow, and search not working

I've noticed it also..and was just going to come in and start a post about it until I found this one

I've been a Member of this site since almost when it started and I've never noticed it acting like this until recently. I hope you guys find the cure soon...

What just happened? What were you trying to do? Search? Load a thread? Reply? PM? We need to know these things, we cannot just take guesses.

You guys can post "it just happened again" all day long and that doesn't tell us a single thing.

We keep saying that we need specifics on what you guys are doing when "it" happens, and very few people actually take the time to type out a two minute post giving us info. Until then, we have nothing to go on and we can't help.

For example...
http://web.camaross.com/forums/showthread.php?t=446889

There's dozens of posts in this forum with people complaining, yet not a single post in that thread to give us any info.

Re: still slow, and search not working

It happened when clicking on the first new post button once. Another time was using the forum jump I believe. Ill be more specific next time. The search has been working great recently.
