with the board. For the last few days I have'nt been able to load the posts. They seem to be alot slower than normal and most are getting stuck a third of the way through, according to the progress indicator at the bottom of the screen. I have a DSL and do not have problems any where else.

It's definitely slow on this end... I've upgraded (tonight) the server to a faster dual processor/fast drives but the board has become bigger than the current database - will need to try a different database type :o :'( ... As an interim measure, the 1.2 Ghz/ RAID0 system will be online next week :P but it should be a bit smoother now than the past week or so...

G'nite all...

John much better I can at least look at topics now thanks!!!

Still not terribly fast yet but I'm looking into options...

Much better today John.

John,

CPU speed will only do you so much good. Sounds more like the NOC your server is at has a poor back-bone connection. That's probably where the bottle neck is.

Have you run a trace route?
