Is it me or is my site horribly slow?
-
I'm trying to track down a much more severe lag - as I mentioned up to half a minute. From what it appear to me, I make a request to a resource, and it will sitt there with no apparent response for up to 30 seconds before it seem to start receiving. Once it start to receive it appear to work rather quickly. That is why I am suspecting it's might be something like the database which takes a long time to complete it's task. At least something on the sever in terms of preparing the content to be served to the client.

Well, as it is with shared hosting, there could be any number of sources for any issue. I've been monitoring the site and trying to put down some notes. Will try to make a test script that times the various execution time for different functions. Need some kind of pointer to give the support monkeys.

Now at the turn of the year I hope to get on it. Been troubling me all along.
The Gizmo will be an important feature in Vertex Tools and Bezier Surface. I might be making a standalone version for general purpose as well (in its own time).
That's really good news

Yes I understand that ,but at the same time others are OK. How does your postulated failure fit their results? Don't get stove piped and fool yourself. I would guess you host should have some test they can run or comment on TS approach and maybe correlate with any recent changes?? They can even run SNR test and make sure levels are ok. If you have ever had the chance to scope a high data rate line it is not what you think of as nice square waves. It is more sinusoidal with jitter at the zero crossing etc, so the sample clock must be such that you are not trying to work in the linear region. ON top of that teflon under goes a state change at room temp and can cause timing errors unless they are properly match for phase delay and lot control. The point is a lots of things can go on to affect a high rate system. Have you made any recent changes?
Don't think this is the problem but a lots of ACK-Nacks can cause that can it not? If the folks who downloaded and found no problem go thru the same sequence as you what does that tell you? Either they are lucky or there is some difference. For a while I was getting SQL errors on this site just because of two many users.
Good Luck -

If you have not done so already I would strongly recommend you talk to the tech support. They may already have an idea because most will get some performance metrics or the can suggest TS steps??

I've been in contact with them before about erratic MySQL error messages, which seemed to indicate too many connections, the general jest of the answer was that it was shared hosting and it might occur from time to time. They where not able to track down a particular cause unless they could experience it while they did they checked.
So this time around I'm bringing more ammo to the party.

Bummer, like dealing with the government since it is almost assured they have all kinds of performance metrics etc. and they could probably easily set one specific to for you. For your info: From here to the site 400 sec test shows 30(16) hops and no drops at this time.

vertex_tools seems fine but there are parts on site that are really slow (firefox 9).

Using myPhpAdmin to look at the database and tables and found that it took many seconds to do simple SELECT queries on very small tables in my small databases. Something is very wrong here. But I can't seem to get the support to grasp this...
-
They moved my account to a different server - ran into some issues with database tables and subdomains not transferring at first, but now it seem to have all been sorted. And the performance is much better. I have yet to experience the long lags I saw earlier.
Going to monitor the site closely for any issues I might have missed.
-
glad there was some resolution! When I had some server issues it was due to a move and upgrading equipment. There may still be hiccups, good to keep an eye on things. -
loads lightning fast for me Thom.
