In case that you really set your mind to move, could you please post a warning here a couple days before? :) I have some text that I would like to save up, just in case.

It's not a matter of wanting to, it's more of a need to. If the site is not moved to a new plan/host, then the slowdowns will persist. And that benefits no one in the long run.

I am leaning to a new plan with the current host, which (in theory) should make the site move seamless. But, yes. I will give you all a warning before I move.

Forum is extremly slow for me now, hardly possible to use at all.

I wouldn't say it is impossible to use, but I do have time to play a game of solitaire while waiting for the next page to load.....  ;D

(And sad to say, that is only a slight exageration....)
Later,
Matt

I have a new theory that the forum is not actually slow, but is only submitting data in pulses at certain intervals. I recognized that if I press another button directly after a page loaded, it usually loads that next page instantly too, without any delay, so there is a window.
No idea if this is helpful.

So the forum is getting interrupts? Maybe the sub pulse length is wrong, it's probably from the kitchen bots spamming the forum with sensor requests.
