Pages take a long time to load

Post by Joe »

I've noticed recently that the forums are a lot slower than other websites. Firefox's network monitor says the server takes upwards of 6 seconds to respond when loading the page initially, but most other assets like CSS and images load pretty much instantly when I bypass the cache.

User avatars also take upwards of 6 seconds to load, and those are handled by PHP (file.php) rather than static.

Thanks for the report. The site was being aggressively scraped, causing high CPU load. brizzo has stopped it for now.
