Why is Codeguru slow nowadays?

I can somehow feel codeguru is much slow than what it used to be earlier.

It takes 2 minutes for search to complete. Sometimes i get a page cannot be displayed error as well...

Can anyone feel this or i am going nuts!!!

Maintenance.

No, you're not nuts. And you're not alone. ;)

See this thread.

The time of a search can be dependent upon what you are searching for and the complexity of the search....


Having said that....

If someone is still seeing lots of 'slowness' on this site in the past week or two, please let me know. A number of changes have been made to speed up the site including hardware additions. As such, as of the last week+, speed should be equal to or better than what it has been in the past.

Brad!

I'm still experiencing access problems. Yesterday, the forums were down for few minutes, could not open any, for a few minutes. Can't remember the time exactly, I think it was about noon, local time.

Yes, I have those access problems too. Also - and this may just be relevant to me - but I often have a strange problem when posting (or previewing something that I'm about to post) where IE simply shuts down completely and I lose the post. This is much more frequent when previewing - to the extent that I don't even bother previewing things any more. The problem doesn't happen with any other web site, even ones that are similar to CodeGuru.

I used to have this problem too (the IE was crashing when pressing submit or post), and quite often at a given point. I was told that it might be caused by an IE add-on, like google or yahoo toolbar, or something similar. However, it didn't happened in a long time, and I'm still having such toolbars (Yahoo toolbar, DAP Bar).

Oh dear - the site has really been intolerable this weekend. Sometimes taking up to 2 minutes to change a page. Or (more often) my browser bar says "Done" when only the background has been loaded!!! Can't anything be done about this??

Yeah Brad, the site is very slow for me too, sometimes it takes age for a thread to load ;)

Edit: Took like 30 seconds for posting this ;)

Same here. Answering to post and hitting reply doesn't show the final thread for eternity. Later when I try to repost, comes up with a duplicate. All after 2-3 minutes of waiting.

Have'nt really noticed anything out of the ordinary.
Codeguru seems pretty fast, both at work and at home. (I use Firefox).

Its painfully slow today. I have been experiencing some delay in the past, but nothing too much serious, as today, it takes forever to load a page.

it's not only slow it's very very slow
taking near about 10 to 15 minute to refresh a page 5 to 10 minute to open a page all work is taking more then 10 minute.even some time.even some time temper increases when u want to do some work and u r unable to do it in a particular time

GRRR!!! It really has been unusable for most of today.... :(

It's the www .CodeGuru.com site that seems to be having the problem. The main front page www .CodeGuru.earthweb.com seems to be fine. But as soon as I try to navigate around the actual site, it takes forever!!!
