is it just me or does this server suck?

[Guest]

half the time i have problems getting threads to load and the other half when i try to reply something happens where i can't. bah! :mad2:

[Professur]

It's just you.

[tarez]

everything is slow for me alot of the time

[fury]

No, the server does indeed suck a very extremely large penis.

[unclehobart]

blows donkeys

[Luis G]

So far the server is a bit slow, but it loads just fine.

[Professur]

I've no problems either. Maybe it's only yobbos with high speed internet how have problems? That would be a nice change.

56k here. I have found that whenever I can't get through to this site that I also can't connect with Xibase.

[sbcanada]

I'm pretty sure this site and Xibase are on the same server.

[fury]

otc is just another directory under the xibase.com site

You can get to it through one of any 3 ways

http://www.otcentral.com/
http://otcentral.xibase.com/
http://www.xibase.com/otcentral/

So, any problems xibase encounters, so does otc

[Guest]

That's why I thought it was the server. Usually I go to other sites to determine if it is my connection or just this site that I have problems loading. If the other sites load normally and this one/xibase do not then I suspect it is this server.

[Justintime]

I'm on cable and get the same problems, and i can't acces Xibase as well, so its the server having issues.

[Inkara1]

Think maybe this board running on the same server at the same time as XiBase has something to do with the problem?

[Justintime]

doubtful, i had those problems logging in to xibase before this board was created, this is just an extenstion of the main xibase directory more or less.

I think it has mostly to do with the fact that the server is barely a step above an adding machine. :rolleyes: one website scares it...two put it into shock. :grumpy:

[samcurry]

I wish we were the only ones on the server. Then it would be nice and fast. but....there are like 100 sites on the server. They did do an upgrade on the server lastnight let me know if it acts up today. We are looking at another host if the problems keep up. But we will still have to share a server with many other sites. :(
Who knows maybe someday we'll be able to have our own dedicated server.

[Leslie]

Acted up today. Left to browse, couldn't come back. I guess I just can't leave lol

see?? that's just waaay too many sites for an adding machine.:flush:

Puked on me twice today.

[unclehobart]

What are the peak time overload #s like? Its not all the way off in the 20x of capacity is it?

[fury]

Last night I saw it at 17, 22, 19, and 14 a few times

I've seen it hit as high as 97

That's what happens when you stick 100 sites on a weak server.

[Kruz]

It's takeing 2-3 mins to load a page today:(
and it's not just today.... sometimes I can't connect at all :mad:

[fury]

Some of you may have noticed a few 404 errors and the URL being http://challenger.f5hosting.com/suspended.page/

We were suspended for a few minutes while the host was testing a few of its high load sites and seeing which one was causing the load problems. We're within the top 10% intense sites, but we're not the problem. Glad they finally got that sorted out. :rolleyes:

That's disgraceful numbers.

load averages: 0.13, 0.08, 0.08 on a Pentium III 866 MHz, 256MB RAM, 30.7GB disk.

That's the server I'm hosted on. Looking at the number of usernames on it I would estimate there are 200+ accounts on it. The diff is pair.com has 28 shared DB servers for databases to be run on.

Decent. :headbang:

[fury]

It was just now up at 10.12. I'm starting to get very annoyed.

Jealous?:D

It's refreshing to recall how shitty dial-up WAS...

[greenfreak]

I hate to say this for fear of jinxing it but it seems to be much more responsive today. Then again it's only 1pm...

[Gonz]

let's try a new one :headbang:

[Guest]

Now that Sam went to a new host, hopefully this thread no longer serves any purpose. :)

[Justintime]

its her crack problem, she speaks alot of shite :D

[fury]

That's just like us to keep posting to a thread after it no longer serves a purpose :eek:

Such is the very essence of Off Topic Central. Rock on! :headbang:
