Yikes, it's slow today.

[totalxsive]

Yes. I think the database farted.

[Guest]

I thought it was just me. I just received permission to edit in a cat with over 2k unreviewed and it's taking a minute + to reload the power unreviewed screen.

 

Darn the slowness! I was hoping to get so involved in editing that I forgot to go to the gym. This much time between screens kills that excuse.

[totalxsive]

It seems to have regained speed now.

[Guest]

Woooweee! Editing is NOT back to speed for me. It's taking minutes to get a screen of power unreviewed and a number of seconds to bring up a single edit screen.

 

The system is moving as fast as hung-over college student on a Sunday afternoon.

[sundancerz]

Yes it's crawling like a 1 year old.

The statistics are all messed up too. Business only had one site and no unreviewed, it's directory wide.

[sundancerz]

Is the directory working slow for the rest of you?

It's crawling for me today.

[hutcheson]

I'm having a hard time telling. How fast does it _usually_ run in categories with 3000 unrevieweds?

[Guest]

Very slow for me, too. I have given up mostly and done real work.

[dstanovic]

hutcheson - 3000 unreviewed ..Uhg!!!!

 

I am finding it next to impossible to bring up a category with about 550. When I do get a edit screen and "update" I have been getting server errors. Categories with one site in unreviewed still take me at least a full minute to update/publish /images/icons/frown.gif

 

(This is with a broadband connection – which right now is useless for editing. May as well be 14.4 modem)

[hutcheson]

Good news: it's under 2300 now, and much faster. I can hardly keep 4 windows busy.

I spent way over an hour yesterday on one site/listing in unreviewed. Does 10 mirrors and 15 domains for the same company/business set a new record of any kind?

I sent all the info to donaldb for appropriate action /images/icons/smile.gif

 

It's these type of sites that take up all of my time - think of how many "unreviewed" could have been "reviewed" in this time /images/icons/frown.gif

 

I have this particular category down to 522 unreviewed - with over 11,000 unreviewed in the topical category /images/icons/frown.gif

I think we need some serious help!

P.S. I'm off for a short vacation for a couple of days so I won't be think of this - I hope /images/icons/smile.gif

I think it is the number of editors that are on at the time you are editing. Try getting on at a time that not very many editors would be on (mainly when the US editors aren't on...darn us bandwidth hoggers, there's just too many of us /images/icons/wink.gif) and you'll see that it's quite as fast as it should be /images/icons/smile.gif

[sundancerz]

But it's no fun without US editors. /images/icons/wink.gif

[totalxsive]

Oh I dunno.... /images/icons/wink.gif
