That was the first link I hit. :winkwink:

Just think- if all your customers were women, it probably wouldn't even matter if the videos didn't work. ;-}

painfully slow

Pass expired pretty quick...

got to download one video. Downloaded at 210k per second...

Took forever to load the members section but downloads are fast. Might be the software?

I noticed that as well. ZIps and vids are loading and downloading at decent speeds but the loading of the site is terribly slow. We looked over all our mysql and programs and everything looked fine (we spent the whole day going over them).

Pass re-enabled :thumbsup

Shameless promotion. :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

Lens this post was not an attack, it was a cry for help from Jupiter and the Jupiter guys are now working on it. I'm really hoping it will be resolved soon.

You asked me to post a retraction and do this and that if the mistake is on our end. Ok. Fine. I've agreed to that. I'll always stand by my word. So if it is a Jupiter problem what will you do? You come out swinging and asking me to step up. I have, now it's your turn :winkwink:

Don't know if things have been fix but I'm not having problems accessing the members area.

Great site BTW :thumbsup

Shap,

We're also hosted on Jupiter and absolutely no slowdowns here either...

I've just checked your tour & members area and you are right , members are loading extremely slow but I think your bottle neck caused by Mysql and/or PHP code.. For example updates.php (queries all database from what I've seen) is the slowest loading page.

You may try one of those:

* add query_cache_size=128M config command to MySQL (Depending on your memory size on the box) so it'll cache those static repeating queries (like your home page or updates page) and returns cached results in much shorter time.

* Make sure all your mysql queries takes place in a single connection call

* Make sure your queries request just the used data (not something like "SELECT * FROM table")

* You should also consider Zend Performance suite if you have funds.

There are more points you can check but those were the most significant ones..

I hope this helps :thumbsup

Shap,

Your member's area loads extremely fast here from my home in San Diego. I tested a few zips to download and they were very fast downloading. I don't think it is a hosting issue but maybe a routing issue in your part of world.

We are with Jupiter and our sites are loading just fine.

Could it be the Ganja man fell asleep at his post? Check with the locals......LOL

j/k bud....seriously though, everything works fine here.

I know it can be frustrating when these anomalies happen.

Thanks Guys. Apparently nothing is fixed yet. We've had 3 major drops in bandwidth in the last 2 hours. The only place we get good speed seems to be within Cali.

50 Non Problems here!

It has now been 30 hours and we are still slow as shit :( Our support box is full of people cancelling and complaining of site speed. I really hope this gets settled soon. It looks like it may be a load balancer issue.

Socal is also still slow. Check this out
http://www.socalcoeds.com/ref/4//index1.html

fast or slow for you guys?

crawling, in chicago:(

have a test file to dl? I'm on 100 mbps here, in europe

This is also loading very slowly for us
http://tour.twistys.com/t1/revs=NoAdvert/index.html

Not to mention sales are 50% of what they should be this morning and cancels are 400% of what they should be.

I'm a little concerned because I got a support email from Ray claiming everything looked ok :( IT's definitely not ok. I hope they haven't stopped working on this thinking it's OK.

Downloads of zips and vids are fast for both Socal and Us. It's the loading of the page that is painfully slow.

that one is pretty fast for me actually

The page loads in the correct amount of time for me, but depends on how fast of a connection you are on...

Here is how fast it should load.

Got gauge where are you located?

Kansas

I do not think it is a Bandwidth problem,
Looks like a server load problem, or some program going crazy.

According to the Page File Sizes, which are huge, I get better than expected load times...

I'm having problems with google.
I host at jupiter and 3 days ago my domain simply dropped out of google. Used to be PR6 now i got a grey bar.

Some people suggested IP problems.
I dont know what the fuck is going on



BTW shap, i noticed http://tour.twistys.com - no PR (grey bar)
http://www.socalcoeds.com = grey bar also.

Shitty, we called tech support 3 hours ago reporting the problem (again) and were told someone would call us back. No call back. I'm getting the feeling either they've got nobody available or are avoiding us.

Weird i would have thought www.socalcoeds.com would have a decent pr.

That is odd with 117,000 links to socalcoeds

http://www.google.ca/search?hl=en&lr...s.%2Bco m/%22

Shap -

Signups are low this morning for us too, but it has NOTHING to do with our host. Our servers at Jupiter have been fast as hell all day and nite. You don't see anyone complaining about GFY's speed, do you?

And your tour is fast as hell:

As you say, the problem is your members server. Sounds like it's getting hammered by password traders, or spiders, or one of the many potential problems we all have when we run members servers. These things happen. On another note, I was talking to the Socal people last week, and they told me about they we doing some programming and it was affecting perfomance.

Captain we need more power!

Lensman i said this earlier if it is our fault i'll admit to that. I'm 99% sure it's a jupiter hosting problem. We've had the feeling the load balancer has been screwed for a while. Jupiter told us it was fine. All indications are that the load balancer is causing this problem. I know socal is experiencing a similar problem and they are also using I believe a similar load balance set up that was set up BY JUPITER and from my understanding Jupiter's responsibility.

I'm not asking anybody to compare GFY to my member's area. I've got a slow member's area and I'm asking Jupiter to fix the problem. It's not password traders. It's not spiders. That we know. Jupiter has been working on this for the last day with no luck. I'd just like this situation to be over with.

weird, now I see www.socalcoeds.com got its PR back

but not www.twistys.com
it still got no PR (not included in google)

i think jupiter fucked up somewhere.
but dont know where exactly.

I know tour.twistys.com doesn't have pr because it went live after the last google update. Www.twistys.com is showing pr2. I still don't get a pr for socal.

something is definitely fucked.

That's rediculous. There are a million reasons why you could lose your PR. The only way it could be IP based if you shared an ip with a google spammer. Sometimes your affiliates can fuck your PR because of redirection of Google traffic.

http://www.adult.com/ = PR5 (Same hosting company)

http://www.naughtyamerica.com/ = PR2 (same company as socalcoeds)

http://ps5.twistyscash.com/ = PR5

my PR is dead, and i cant find my site if i do an URL search.

esterday i got a reply from google and they told me i didnt have any penalties applied to my domain and it wasnt banned.

so something must wrong with server configuration / network

maybe it affects only a few servers ?

Btw Lens, from your posts I get the impression that you are saying just because gfy is fast it's automatically a problem on our end not jupiter. That's a very false statement, wouldn't you agree? If our load balancer is failing who's fault is it? It surely isn't ours. It's Jupiter's. Right? You are making it sound like unless gfy is slow I shouldn't be posting any jupiter problems.


Also how about this.
Yesterday we put in an urgent ticket. It took 4 hours before we got a reply, we got a reply but no solution.

Last night we had our ticket closed saying everything was fine. I have a bandwidth chart that clearly shows, to any tech looking at it, that our shit was not FINE and the ticket should not be closed.

This morning we call support. We are told they'll call back asap. That was 3 and a half HOURS ago.

Our member's area is insanely slow. Oddly enough Andreas (socal) also started experiencing this at almost the exact same time.

alot of sites loads slow like hell today
incl. mine (and i am not on jupiter btw)
at first i thought it was my conection but
the connection speed test i did shows all is ok
is there some major backbone probs ?

www.hostdime.com BLOWS TOO

Painfully slow.
