As did I. I have come to expect that around 10am my time.

The spike is happening in the time frame ofo 9:30am to 10am EST most days. We are working with the Network people to resolve it .

Ugh, things are bad. IPS errors galore. I even double posted a topic and that never happens to me!

Hanging for me as well.

Veddy veddy bad. IPS and all that.

sooooooooooo slow.

I just got confirmation from the NOC that they have identified the issue and have made a change that should help. The main issue was the daily backups that were being run caused disk IO problems and slowed the server. They have reduced the speed of the backup to reduce disk IO and hopefully that will help the slowdowns during backups (which happen in the mornings). I would prefer to move the backup time to the early morning (EST time) but that is not possible.

Yes, it's just not the morning backups, Captain. The site has been having serious problems this afternoon.

I concur!

Seems to be pretty snappy at the moment. Just thought I'd throw in another data point.

Yeah the other item that slows things down is the internal search engine for the forums. The main search at the top of the forums does not cause slow downs so when applicable it is a good choice.
