Question

Is it just me or is it taking longer than usual to load your watched threads? Seems that it only takes longer on watched threads not the others. Just wondering.

I haven't noticed any difference personally and as far as I know everything is operating as it should.
I'll keep an extra close eye on it though and if I see any problems, I'll report them right away.

Thank you melody. I just wondered as I didn't notice any other sites taking a long time to load.

That is odd.
I've got a few watched threads that I'll pay special attention to to see if there is a pattern.

I get similar "stuck" loading home page. Just had, "waiting for load.s3.amazonaws.com"

I'll have someone take a look and see if we've got issues. I've still not experienced any slowdown, but it won't hurt to get it on the radar.

Thanks melody, still having issues.

Are your watched threads really long? I don't have too many watched threads, but one I have that just popped up tonight has close to 400 responses so it does take a bit longer to load than other threads, but it doesn't seem like it's taking any longer than other threads of comparable length.

I only load the "home" page on DG with only 3 "watched" forums. It seems to get stuck on loading external stuff so I can hit "refresh" and it might clear or just continue attempting to finish loading the page. I think it gets stuck loading external advertisers, etc.

Try turning your ads off and see if that helps Mike. It would let us know if it is in the ad content or in the community. (you can always turn them back on)

1 thread is 387 replies, 1 is 281 and the other one is 121...not too long. Seems to be doing a little better today. Not really a big deal but was just wondering if others were having the same issue. Thanks everyone.

Looks like I only had the main ads check box empty so I removed the other 2. So far, so good. Thanks.

Now I'm getting, "Memcache could not connect"

Thanks Mike.
I've reported this issue as well.

Just got a message back from Tech and they are aware of a problem and are working on it...he didn't go into detail, but yes, there is a bug in the system.

Thanks for the heads-up everyone.

Yea! Thank you.

I get the same as growin.

I just got a 'memcache could not connect' too.

Hopefully, they'll get things under control soon, so this is no more than an annoyance.

Yup, I'm getting it too, wasn't before though.

I got one yesterday, but nothing seemed wonky. I reported it along with your slowdown issue. Apparently they are somehow related.

The "Memcache" errors have stopped. Are there squirrels in the programming 'cause they seem to be trying to hide some nuts?

I've had one in the last few minutes, so something is still 'nutty'.

Good to know melody. Yup, something is still nutty at the nut farm!

It's running like it did when I didn't have DSL...only way I can explain what's going on here.

That's really odd....I've not noticed any glitches or slow-downs today. Is it still just DG that is slow?

Yes, it's only DG. Maybe it's just a problem on my end and it's just affecting DG. I don't remember it being this slow to load. I don't want you to wrack your brain over it. Sounds like it might just be my end.

I've just tried some large threads and they open almost immediately and I'm not getting any reports of slowness. I'll keep tuned to any problems though and let tech know asap.

Then it IS my end...thank you melody.

Keep me posted.

Will do.

dg "sticking" again. Loads the main page but gets stuck loading the amazon component.

Thanks Mike.
I'll let them know.
