Problem

Bakster

Extremely long delay for pages to load. Started for me on Sunday. 

I think they're carpet-shampooing the server.... 

Hi everyone!

We're experiencing traffic spikes right now on the FSM Forums and that's slowing the servers down. It did start over the weekend. Please bear with us as we get through this.

Thanks!

Hi all! 

Again, sorry for the Forum's lagginess here during the last 36 hours. Traffic has been up and we hit a point where we needed to do some server maintenance. But it looks like everything is up and running pretty quickly now.

Tim, it does appear to be working again.

Thanks for addressing the issue.

Yes, performance on page loads was still irregular yesterday, whether at login or navigating between pages, with the occasional timeout and error 504.  Much better today, the normal performance.  Well done to the server admins!

The performance issue recurred again this morning, starting with logging in, and then moving from one page to another.  Eventually the pages threw off error 504 again.  Just to let the server admins know.

Yes, it seems we had a flutter again. We're working on a overall fix for this, but we're having to go through some bottlenecks when traffic spikes. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Just to report it as a status, the server is struggling again today.  I got error 504 when I first navigated to http://cs.finescale.com/f/ to access the forum, and on saving entry, I'm getting a page showing the message that an unhandled error occurred (nothing for it in the dev tools>Console or Network tabs, though).  It's not consistent, but occurred on most saves and moves so far.  Refreshing the page has generally served as a workaround, though again, that's not consistent, either.

A forum reply exists that is a duplicate of this reply.

Still getting very slow page loading for some days now.

Some days I simply can't get FSM to load or have my log-in complete.

Was clicking on several different browsers to see if that would help but apparently this was

unknowingly posted twice.

Today I looked up a random finescale post on google and it brought me to another subject here.

After that came up, I then went to "FORUMS" and managed to get to this page.

So what's next?

I'm in the same boat; barely getting anything to load the past week. I can get into the armor forum page, and that's about it.

Even this post took a while to go through.

I think somebody from the OUTSIDE is carpet-shampooing the server.  I have been unable to get in all week.

Much improved today, performance is back to normal, no recurrence of error 504.  Well done to the server admins!
