Another major upgrade this morning - how's the site performing today? Are pages still

Another upgrade this morning - how's the site performing today? Are pages hanging?

Members,

Please accept my apologies for the outage this morning. We upgraded our firewall and our load balancer and several of our web servers this morning (only a few left to upgrade).

As you know, we are committed to making EF the best performing forums on the Net and we are getting closer. I appreciate your patience.

Please let us know how the site is performing for you today. And let us know in particular how it performs between 3pm and 6pm eastern - our busiest time of day. Most importantly, are pages still hanging and either not displaying or only displaying partially? This has been a real tough problem for us to solve.

I appreciate your support.

Today is better than the earlier part of the week.

agreed.. much better today.. i've got 3.0mb service so I was wondering what was up earlier this week.. took forever to view things.. but anyway.. hey george.. maybe you've got a server.. or a few servers running some illegal services.. (i.e. viruses).. just eating away at the resources.. causing slow page loads.. or no page loads at all for those certain servers.. any attacks on EF lately that could be the culprit? I doubt you would need it but if you need any more help resolving the problems i am a computer science major.. Will work for Plat.. ha ha

According to my computer clock, it took 33 seconds for this forum page to open. Slightly better than last week.

I take back what i said earlier.. just as slow as usual again.. and it's not really a peak time.. oh well..

Running smoothly.

Still happening, although at times it seems better.
