Slow site

[Randi]

I also couldn't get on a few hours ago, but it seems to be OK now.

Karen and Paul, perhaps with the change you are going to make, it would be good time to put a limit to the size of images. They must take up a huge amount of space.

We were not online at that time, so didn't know about the slow-down until we saw your posts. It seems okay now.

Randi, the images are stored differently in this version of the software. I don;t know how the new server with affect that, but it handles the images much better now than it used to. Most people post images that are hosted elsewhere, unless they post them as attachments and I think that's now a separate database.

Images can eat up space but this was not just slow response, it was
actually little to no response. I figured it was just a blip & would clear
up later. It was awful. Don't you all feel sorry for me now?

I was having the same problem you were so we are in the same cup of tea there!

Sometimes it has to do with our server, but some slowdowns can be because of a connection somewhere between you and our server, the Internet goes through several nodes and "portals" and what they do is beyond our control!

Awww, poor Liz. Feel better now?

I just spent about an hour trying to get onto Pet Talk and couldn't, although I see there was activity during that period, so the site was up. But definitely not letting me on.
