Site is insanely slow

What is the deal with this site?! It is soooooo slow!

Sometimes it's worse than other times, but it's always the slowest site I visit. I'm thinking someone mentioned something about servers at some point.

I'd swear this site loads slower than dial up. I love this place, it's the greatest, but good grief it's aggravating.

Admins-please oh please do something. Pretty please.
 
I agree, it gets pretty bad sometimes.
 
This site is insanely Slow:

Whoa! This site is insanely Slow, so Deschain Crows to let the site admins Know from head to Toe so they may set the site Aglow!

Yes, its a.........tad......slow.

Some days are better than others, but today its pretty bad. So Im sad.
 
It is so slow when:

Click a thread link, and then Chillen can go do cardio for 30m, and then have a quick post cardio lite meal, and its not done loading yet.
 
If it is an issue of money - why dont they create some premium member features that are awesome and charge for it? Other sites do that and it goes very well for them. Just a suggestion.

I agree it is slow!
 
Yeah, I'm on a T1 line here at work and can still work while it's loading. I figure all good things are worth waiting for though, eh?
 
Recently it has been much worse. Its so bad half the time I can't even get here. Why, this site was down for me until about an hour ago.
EVERY SINGLE DAY, I have problems with this site. Its starting to really annoy the hell out of me.

It seems completely random as well.

And, HELL NO, to the "paid for features".
 
It's been better for me today but I remember on Monday I was getting an error page displayed every time I posted.
Oh well, it's still the best fitness forum out there :)
 
yes, i have noticed that it has started getting slower and slower. we are getting more and more people staying on the main site, especially with the launch of our exercises ... but, also because the main site is tied directly into the forum causing a lot of extra database queries. I have been looking into ways to optimize the site and speed up loading times, but only making minimal advances. The worst time of the day is between 10am -> 2pm Pacific time.

Trust me ... it hasn't gone unnoticed and I am/will be doing what I can to fix this.
 
Cool, Thanks ACB. Although, Isn't the Weight loss forum held on the same server as this one?

Previously, when this site slowed. So did that one. However, now that isn't the case. Why?
 
i just moved the weight-loss forum yesterday to a smaller server that we don't use for much in hopes of helping the load ... not sure if the small server can handle it or if it'll make much difference with this server. I'll be playing around with many various options over the next month or so (takes about a week for each change to see if it makes a difference) ...
