I don't have enough experience with MySQL to know how big is too big, but we're closing in on a million rows in the posts table.
[edit: and it took me 15 seconds to run a "select count(*) from posts" query]

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
This feels sudden and I don't like that one bit. But archiving can't hurt.
DX? You around?

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Okay, yeah, it's taking me a long time to post.

What do you mean it feels sudden? The board has had these fits of slowness for a long time now.

The board is super-slow today.
It's even slower than usual today (usual slowness is due to crappy internet)

Insanely slow. Dropped into this thread to see if I was the only one.
Will time post wait.... 1:43 from when I hit post the first time.

Was it very slow for you yesterday? It wasn't for me. But, as noted, my entire connection is slow today, so I can't make a comparison. Your query duration looked very long, though.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
Board is noticeably slower today for me than it was yesterday.

I haven't posted in a few days so I didn't notice until today.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
Yeah, it's like there's molasses stuck in the server. Did someone spill a soda in it or something?
