Forum is very slow today - About xda-developers.com

Hi Folks,
I'm not sure what's happenning today, but the forums are very very slow. I takes about 3 minutes while a white page says "loading" and then everything loads in an instant. Wiki is working fine. Just brining it to someone's attention. Thanks!

Same here, it's been extremely slow all day and sometimes have had "Error 500 internal server error".
Running a little better now but still slow.

Same here in USA, I was getting this "Error 500 internal server error" during the last 8 hours. Finally got on the site just now...

I experienced that today too.

same here but this time i wasn't getting the 500 error

Seem back to normal now, site is now loading very quickly .

Yup, I can confirm that, everything's back to normal.

Today's run normal...

Slow site?

Is it only me?
Or anyone else is having slow response to open any page of this great site?
I have this slowness since 2 weeks and I have the best speed available on my country: 4mb (You guys with super fast connections don´t laugh)

It's been a little slow for me from time to time, but nothing major, pages always load.
P.S. I have a 2Mb cable line at home
Dave
its ok for me
are you guys talking mega bytes or mega bits
ive got 7.2 megabits
It loads slowly trying to login and opening up a forum. Other than that it seems good. According to speedtest 25 megabits from work
It's been pretty quick for me lately. In fact, it's been better, since I no longer seem to get HTTP 5xx Server errors anymore. Speedtest.net says about 5 mbps from home over type N Wi-Fi.

@orb: Did not notice any speed difference myselft either. BTW I have a dialup connection using a USB modem . normally any page opens within 2-4 seconds (Always, should be more appropriate). Could it be that your firewall or router acting itchy?
Thanks for your reply
No it was not any firewall or router...
It happens randomly form time to time now is ok
Cheers,
I've noticed this too over the last few weeks, both at home >1.5Mb connection and even at work where the connection is 100Mb
May I add; nearly every morning about 01:30Hrs the site becomes unreachable for about 3mins. Though this may be due to backups
Forums been very slow for me. 15 seconds to just load the reply page.
The current problem discussion is here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=510704
Yes, although not for weeks, bust for last 3 days, I am getting pathetically low speeds while opening pages here at New Delhi, India. Its taking around 15-70 seconds to open a page. I am on a 256 kbps line and all the other websites are working absolutely fine. Torrents are even giving 37-40 KBps / 296-320 Kbps (theoratically not possible on my connection )
But its a lot better today. I am getting pages in 3-5 seconds at the moment. I have also noticed that when its night here in India, pages start opening slow. I guess the other side of the globe is more active at that time

The site's up and running at full speed now. The admins fixed the problem around midnight (BST) last night.

the site is popular
Time to look into cachefly. It is a great option to server balance without the need for additional servers. Someone at the top should go check it out and see if it would fulfill any needs for XDA. It is worth the look after all, ad banners generate faster with more pageloads...
FYI, for me the site is painfully slow. The initial html loads fine but anything needing the forum database is at a crawl.
Love the site, thank you admins and all helpers!
im on here all the time i have a 8mgb connection and its slow from other conenctions also... not always i guess when the site gets overloaded, i wish we could update the bandwidth or w.e is causing this for the site
I still get a slow site.... when browsing the forum it takes a few secs (5-10) to open a page... and it only happens on this site
i have a 16Mb connection!
Deiota
It's slow for me also.
I have 8.89 Mbps download speed, and the XDA site is really slow today. I've noticed the page transitions were slow the past several times I have gotten on the web site, but today is the slowest I've seen so far.
for some reason it seems to be running like a turtle today...
Same here
Perhaps we are now too many users?!
I was getting 500 Internal Server errors on the home page earlier when the forums would not load for me.

My phone downloaded data the whole day. Why?!

Hi guys,
So, my battery has just been dropping the whole day, no matter how little I've used my phone. Then I check my Wifi connection, only to find that my phone has downloaded about 265MB of Data today, at about 10KB/s average. I can't figure out WHAT it's been downloading though. Everything is synced, so I don't need anything to be downloaded. I had to turn the phone off and on again to get it to stop.
Any idea how I can figure out what is was doing?
(using a modded DJ Droid ROM)
had a similar, but not so extreme, issue with mine (about 50mb a day) ~ turned out leaving iGoogle active in the browser not such a good idea!
I had similar problem, i got a text from vodafone saying i had exceeded allowance for that day! it was the Engadget widget, downloads 25mb an hour!!

maybe marketplace is acting up.
You need to be logged in to windows live on phone and computer i believe.
I've seen that message occasionally. Generally power cycling the phone solves it.

it's hasn't worked for me, i have reset my phone 3 times so far with countless power down cycles.
I have a sr with ms to see what's going on. I can download free apps but not paid apps, music, games etc.
waiting to hear from MS, lets see what happens.
I get this error from time to time when my Omnia switches from 3G to WiFi (and vice versa) A power cycle seems to be the only way to fix it.
same problem????????????
Have you enable cookies via settings? Try to uncheck that box, restart your phone and check it again.
May be also operator/network problem.
Very common thing indeed.
Check the regional settings on the device, on the computer with the Zune software and in your live account. If they are not the same you get this error message. I had the same problem and I was able to solve it due to the change of this settings.
I hope it will work for you too
i got this problem too! nothing you guys said has worked any other ideas?
Same problem here, looks like there is something going on with market.
Seems to be working now! i uninstalled some apps but could have been that it just decided to start working
that seems to be the fix. it was happening when the phone was trying to update the trial versions of apps. the only way to fix the problem is to delete the free trials... but that was a like a week ago n i havent ran into the problem again
Read in MS support forum there was some sever adjustment.

Zune client not finding updates

Ive done the provisioning and backup about 10 times now. Each time it takes 30 minutes. Ive tried it with 4.7 and 4.8 installed. The first time it worked flawlessly without errors, but every subsequent time it gives me an error about 'no updates needed.'
NOW.. on every tutorial ive seen, it says plug in the phone and start the Zune client and voila everything will be wonderful and sunshine and rainbows as it finds the updates... except, it NEVER DOES. So i try to manually search for updates and it sits there for about 10-15 minutes and times out with an error about 'timing out' or 'not being enough space.' I have 8.5GB of free space on my phone. What do I do? Ive tried uninstalling Zune, downgrading to 4.7 going back to 4.8, restarting my computer, every conceivable combination of uninstalling everything necessary and redoing it. Nobody else seems to be having this problem and ive scoured a couple hundred pages of posts trying to find something thats related to this. I spent about 8 hours yesterday trying to do this and about 3 so far today. HELP!
(Other info: HTC Surround on at&t 7392, not dev unlocked.)
Fixed. after the update i did a Hard Reset and it found the update. Something was really screwed up on phones updating mechanism.

XDA FORUMS - slow loading speeds

It's been for quiet some time now. Opening threads, sub forums, new threads, anything really, all have relatively slow loading speeds compared to other websites. Up to 5 seconds for opening a forum gets annoying... Is this only me?? I have a 200 Mbps down / 20 Mbps up connection and only experience slow loading times on xda forums..
It's very annoying indeed. It could be that they are trying to push the XDA Ad-Free. But, why would someone pay if the speeds here are slow incredibly slow.
Yep, we're having a few server issues at the moment, apologies for the slow load times.
The server nerds are busy working away trying to get things back in shape

I've noticed slow load times (Everywhere) ever since the switch to https. I quite regularly get timed out and these messages pop up in my console:
Code:
Failed to load resource: net::ERR_INSECURE_RESPONSE sp1.png
Code:

Actually, on the home page i have seen a massive increase in speed (Normal page loads are still a bit slow, but for a forum of this size i dont think it runs bad at all).
