slow response from forum pages

Gary Palmer
Posted 10 years ago

I am finding that the forum pages are very slow to open and very slow to register questions and replies. By slow I mean on the order of 10 seconds. This is by far the slowest web site that I regularly use, but I'm afraid I may have to give it up, because I just don't have the time. Is any one else experiencing this?

I hope it can be fixed, because responses that do get through have been very helpful.

I cleared everything. The site window came up within a second, but the sign in went away for 10 seconds before opening this forum page.

It still feels slow compared to other sites, but I may have found part of the problem. I realized that I was only using the forum when I had a Mathematica scripting problem, and of course that happens at times when I am making heavy use of Mathematica and/or the CDF Player. I checked my activity monitor and found four separate instances of Mathkernel. I killed them all and found that the forum responsiveness was better. But I just checked again and the kernels are all back, so I don't know. It could be a memory problem, but I have 16GB of RAM.

Done, as per @Sean's suggestion.

I've found that the Community site can be slow at times as well. It might have to do with maintenance. The site is definitely not its final form and there are being changes made to it, so hopefully the response times pick up
