Don't know where this should be posted, so hoping the mods will kindly move if needed.
I'm just curious... I love this site and am thankful for the community here. And that's why I wanted to see if anyone else is having slow page loads and dropped connections when loading new pages of content here lately. Not sure what's going on. (Begin nerdspeak) : It seems to be a latency/lag problem rather than something like a DNS or relay issue... though I am on Comcast who's been playing a little loose with bandwidth of late.
Just wanted to raise the issue in case others are seeing things, too. I know the site owners would want to know, and I hadn't seen it discussed.
Was said to be fixed but like you Im still running slow.
Yep, same things here. I know it isn't my connection or browser, for it is only happening here & no other sites.
Add to that the new limitations on pictures and there is definitely something not working properly. I blame Russian hackers.
You are not the only one...
I have noticed it and I'm sure that the site administrator will be looking into this. They should be looking at the logs and contact their host provider to see what can be improved.
I've been having problems for a week or so . I just thought it was my computer acting up .
Yes pages loading slow here too
Ok... sorry if I missed a thread. Just thought that it was worth letting people know or checking whether it was something on my side.
Case closed - or, at least, pending resolution.
Been working on it every day guys. Have made a lot of performance improvements, and it is getting better. Will continue to monitor and tweak as needed.
Thanks for letting us know
@Glenn I have been in your shoes and when making updates and tweaking these site, a 1 sentence FYI goes a long way. Without the notice folks question their own devises, then all types of post like this pull your attention away from the matter at hand.
Thanks for all you do, Al
What @NHBull said. And, @Glenn, it's still the best danged site on the web for fishing info!
Yep, been getting it to. All the same problems.
Thanks for working on it Glenn
Still happening...seemed to be better yesterday, but happening frequently again today...just an FYI.
I've been having the same issue. I think it's something to do with the DNS server responding slowly or improperly in turn leading to a slow page loading and the error message. Nothing the server administrators can't fix with some time. Just my 0.2 cents
EDIT
or it simply might be that this is the best fishing website on the Internet and it simply cannot handle all the people looking to be informed
Edited by pondbassin101The problem appears to be an SSL issue. That might be in the server configuration, but in some cases it may in fact be a web browser issue if you are using Mozilla Firefox. Firefox is notorious for having problems connecting to some SSL setups.
It might help Glenn if everyone reported what type of browser they are using to see if there is a pattern. It might also help if everyone reported what time the problem occurred so he can compare that with server load logs.
I'm using Chrome so it's not just Firefox.
Running Chrome here. Website has been slow for a while. Trying to load my notifications takes forever. If I open a page in a new tab, it won't load at first. I have to hit refresh to get that page to load.
Same problems here
I have the problem at work while using Internet Explorer but it is almost non existent. However when I get home and get on my MacBook and use Safari I can barley access the page at all and majority of the time have to use my phone only.
Still working on the issue. Thanks for your information and patience.
Thanks for all the hard work, Glenn!
Just a friendly comment that I am still having these issues. Seem to have gotten a bit worse to be honest. Using Firefox 54.0.1
Just an FYI - I'm fully aware of the issues and am working on them daily with developers and server administrators. This solutions are complex and complicated, and could potentially disable the site if not done right. So it's not a quick fix. It's going to take some time to resolve. I don't have an ETA.
As such, I am closing this topic and will not respond to this or any new topics until the issue is solved; at which point I will reopen this thread with an announcement.
In the mean time, rest assured I know far more details about this problem than you, and am working on it as quickly as possible. There is no need to continue posting about it any more.
Thank you again for your patience.
Glenn
Alright, we performed some major work on the server, which appears to have solved the issues. Please let me know if you see any further latency problems.
Thanks again for your patience!
Im clicking thread to thread quickly now no issues

I don't have a computer so I log in here with my Android phone. I always assumed the slow loading was my phone. Earlier tonight I clicked on a picture and backing out of it got a parse error syntax error unexpected in php message and couldn't get on here. That's fixed now but I can't load my profile at the moment. That's the only problem I'm having. Don't know if anyone else is or not. Thank you for all you do for this site and the great people within. You're the man, Glenn!
Yup, I can replicate the profile issue. Looking into it....
Thanks for the kudos guys. It's nice to be appreciated.
Working great! There are more days than not that this is the first thing I view when I wake up and often the last thing I browse before I call it a day. I can't stop learning here. Thank you all for contributing. And it's free
Profile issue, plus a member map issue, resolved.
Great! Thanks Glenn, it's humming along smoothly for me now

It's nice to have a great place like this to come to and talk about our favorite past time. Everything running smoothly now. Thanks for appreciating us as well. You're still the Man! ?
I got used to the old slow way....please put it back. ?
Thanks for your hard work Glenn
Can't stay logged in on multiple devices. Error messages and pages won't load. Slow page refreshes.
I tried clearing cookies and history. Nothing is making it any better.

i've noticed a slow down recently maybe in the last week. @Glenn maybe a potential issue with size of users?
Still slow and timing out for me on chrome mobile and Firefox PC.
I sometimes get a Secure Connection Failed message. Thanks for all you do Glen.
I was about to buy a new phone!! Glad it wasn't just me
Having issues as well. Slow to load on PC and phone.
Website has been slow for me on my desktop with Chrome for the past week or so. Some pages fail to load whenever I click them and then load properly once I hit refresh.
Give Glenn time. He runs a great operation here.
