Ernie Posted December 15, 2007 Report Share Posted December 15, 2007 Is there anyway to speed up our Avanti Forum? I am using Windows XP with all the latest updates on a DSL line. It takes 15 to 30 seconds to change screens! I am a member of two other auto forums and the navigation between screens is immediate. Attached is a Poll on this matter. Am I the only one with this problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IndyJimW Posted December 15, 2007 Report Share Posted December 15, 2007 Same here ! This site is painfully slow, because of this its one of the last I visit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SBCA96 Posted December 16, 2007 Report Share Posted December 16, 2007 Same here, and sometimes I dont bother to check it at all. I am running high speed DSL at home, faster than a T1, but loading this forum its like a 33k modem from 1993. I agree that there is a problem. Tom Same here !

Stephen Peterson Posted December 16, 2007 Report Share Posted December 16, 2007 I am running high speed and this site is the slowest that I check. Do you think that because it is slow there are few posts? Are most AOAI members also using the SDC site? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lschuc Posted December 17, 2007 Report Share Posted December 17, 2007 Actually, we had a problem on the forum this morning, and I talked to the software supplier, Invision Power, who made a change which brought the forum back online (it had been showing an error page when you tried to visit the forum) and the change they made seems to have GREATLY sped up the page response time. I need to talk to them again this evening and/or Monday morning, but it seems much better for response time on all pages. Lew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ernie Ernie: In addition to the change in the forum software, we are also serving the site on brand new Intel Xserve servers, which are really fast.

Stephen Peterson Posted December 17, 2007 Report Share Posted December 17, 2007 Wow. The site is now as fast as any other. It is like working with a tool every day that is going bad. You don't notice it until you replace it with a new one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
