    Guys , are any of you finding the forum running slow at peak time in the evenings .. For the last 2 weeks I have had pretty poor performance but only on this site ..

    Just wondering if Rob needs to look at bigger servers or is it just me lol

    been fine once logged in but takes several attempts to open the home page up. other sites seem to be normal speed. only happens 2/3 nights a week.

    Yeah that's pretty much what I am getting .

    The forum is growing fast so it makes sense that traffic will start slowing things down . I'm sure Rob will have access to the figures so I thinks it's worth an email to get him to check things out

    Surely the hosting of the site is outsourced, no?

    Yeah but What kind of limits does he have on the amount of traffic it can handle . Most forums have to upgrade to a better service as they grow

    Hi chaps - thanks for the heads up. Please keep an eye on it and report back here. If we need more performance I will look at a beefier option for the server.
