Hi all,

As some of you know, I made a config change tonight and asked people to report the effect. I wouldn't have been vastly surprised if it had helped a bit, but I didn't really think it would. I also wouldn't have been surprised if it made things a bit worse.

It did neither of those things; it made things dramatically worse, really amazingly worse.

I've backed out the change (obviously), but it's given us a really good line of investigation to pursue, so in a way it's progress.

Thanks again for your patience...

So I've made another change, this one a bit more drastic and much more temporary (just while we get the other problem sorted out).

Let's see how this one does. My gut instinct is that we'll notice very little difference.

takes as long as 2 minutes to get to another match; maybe 30 seconds to get back to 'current games'

I'm running at top speed again at this present time.

Site seems to be running very slow. Takes forever for a move to be submitted then the next game to load.

Well, I just got through all my pending games (about 7 or so at the time) with little fuss or muss. I noticed, though, that "next game" was taking far longer than rolling/moving (this is BG I'm playing; TJ knows that but others may not)...I had virtually no wait after hitting "roll" or "send" after moving (a definite improvement over earlier today), but "next game" was still taking several seconds on occasion...

Thanks for the info!

I've noticed significant delays going to the Current Games page (sometimes), sometimes moving between games. For me it's broadly consistent so far with what I've been seeing the past few days. Maybe slightly faster, but then again, there are only 20 active players as I write this. :-)

T.J., I'm finding a major slow down when I click on the games. I didn't have this before. Just thought to let you know. :)

I just noticed something: forums and messages seem to be quite snappy...I've had no delays sending a few invites and reading these forum threads, whereas I just had a fairly slow time getting through my pending moves. FWIW.
