Lags here too.

Buffistas Building a Better Board ++
Do you have problems, concerns, or recommendations about the technical side of the Phoenix? Air them here. Compliments also welcome.
Me, too. Loooooooong ones.
Had extreme sluggishness around 5:30 PST. I could traceroute fast, but all else was glacial.
That was me, sorry.
Next step in board testing will be buffistas.net. I've taken a snapshot of the board's data from late last night, and I'll test the data conversion program tonight, and hopefully be up for testing sometime tomorrow or Thursday. For that, if you're registered here as of last night, you won't need to re-register. It will be the same ID and password as here.
What's changing?
a) I'm making the code run solid in safe mode and b) I'm switching the threads to each have their own table.
a) is just a good idea, and I should have already done it. b) should hopefully speed things up as no post table will go much over 10,000 records, and a crash of posting in one thread should have less impact on posters in other threads.
I'm also on the path to making sure all the admin functions are coded--there are a couple I'd poke straight in the database for--thread sequencing in a folder, for instance, and a page to create and edit thread folders. I've done the latter.
Excellent! I like the b) move a lot. I don't know enough about safe mode to have an opinion, but it sounds... safe.
I have an image of ita wrapping different lines of code in teeny, tiny condoms.
The site's going to be slow tonight while I run the test conversion.
Is anyone else still having big-time lags even now?
ETA: Looks like it zipping along fine now. It just took a few minutes to post my last message, and I got a fail error before then when I was trying to access Natter.
