Server busy, slow site - EMTLife.com - The #1 Online Forum for EMS-Related Discussion

bstone · 12-26-2008, 01:41 AM

Just in the past few days I've been noticing the site has be VERY slow to load and sometimes doesn't load at all. More than a few times I get this "server busy" message.

I am in Boston and use Comcast cable. Thought I'd drop ya a line letting you know.

There's been some issues lately with some of the servers upstream of us.

I too have been having the issue of it sometimes taking 5 minutes or more to load a page.

It's still happening. I just got a "server busy" message trying to load this thread. Please fix?

We can't always control connection issues with our forum from your end. Sometimes it's a database issue, and sometimes it's a connection issue. I'm still in the process of going through the entire database to see if the issue that KevD was having is present in any other accounts, but it takes time to go through 4500+ members.

Hmm 10:25 PM.. so thats how you spent New Years Eve.

But seriously.. we all appreciate the hard work you've been doing.. just don't let the site crash.. I'll go thru withdrawls.
