Been trying for last couple of hours to log-in but the site was running super slow, or not loading up at all. Finally got logged-in but then wouldn't load a page to let me post, then wouldn't let me log out. Just got back on now and wondering what's up? I was wanting to look into a membership. Had this happen a couple of times now.

I'm stuck in the hospital since yesterday for my now removed appendix. It's been taking 10-30 seconds to load each page for me in that time.
It's been good in general over the last couple weeks with only the occasional slow down or outage. I just figured those were times the guys were working on the site.

To the admins.
If the slow downs seem random, I'd love to offer assistance if you folks need anything. Long time Linux system as well as Forum software admin. Ping me if you need anything!

Thanks for the feedback guys, please do not hesitate to posting ANY issues you're experiencing with RCC. I've been working on the site loading very slow issue for the last few days but it's been a tough one to pinpoint where the issue is. At first I thought it was a DNS issue with my ISP as I've had so many ******* Internet outages in the last week and also because all of the server stats/loads are so low, it did not seem like a server performance issue at all.
I'm not working on anything else on the site until I get this figured out and fixed.
I don't know if you did anything, but performance this morning has been outstanding.
Generally DNS unless your IP is dynamic and constantly changing, shouldn't lead to slow loading of the site, pages or features. That is general server side performance or connection(s) limitations (aka: back end tuning). I don't know the hosting situation, full software compliment, nor size of the instance running this site, but I will still offer to help.
I don't want to appear like I'm pressuring, nor demanding to be a Mod or Admin. Actually the opposite. I was given a green star that I didn't purchase, and semi-feel like I should earn it as I didn't purchase it. Easiest path for me to give back, would be to help with the OS and Software side if possible.
Any way I can give back and help this site, I will!

I've done a bunch of server settings optimization. I'm finally seeing performance I'm happy with with my testing. Thanks for the feedback.
I gave you the star because you've been active when RCC needs it the most and that is very much appreciated!Generally DNS unless your IP is dynamic and constantly changing, shouldn't lead to slow loading of the site, pages or features.

Also, I appreciate your offer to help on the backend, but if I couldn't figure this shit out myself then I shouldn't be responsible for our sites not to mention my job in IT for the last 30 years.
The main reason I was thinking it was DNS related issues was because I just got done migrating from two old servers down to one old server then migrating to a brand new server, so a lot of DNS changed were going on. Fortunately I know also know DNS well and I didn't fuck anything up, it was just my shitty ISP.
Much appreciate your generosity.Also, I appreciate your offer to help on the backend, but if I couldn't figure this shit out myself then I shouldn't be responsible for our sites not to mention my job in IT for the last 30 years.
And same, I've been doing the IT/DevOps thing now for 10 years solid, with a 15 year hiatus before this. And there are still days where I feel behind the 8Ball with all the changes... Thankfully, still solidly rooted in all this muck and doing well.
Seriously it is damn near a full time job keeping up on technology changes!
I hear that. I have been in IT since 1999. I'd love to leave, but I can't start over and make nearly as much as I make now.
Very much appreciate the time spent on the site, usually keep hush so I don't come across as if I'm complaining 'cos am not
it is a great site with awesome info 
I did notice one thing...
My shortcut to the forums has always been "rccrawler.com/forum/" and that would no longer load - gave me an "Not found" error.
I re-checked by going to the homepage and then selecting the forums, and it seem that there has been an "s" added to that URL - it's now "rccrawler.com/forums/".
Updated my shortcut, easy-peasy!

Thanks for letting me know, I forgot to add my redirects back to the config when I was troubleshooting the performance issue.
"rccrawler.com/forum/" should automatically redirect you to the new forums URL.
As you shouldIt's the least I could do, considering all the work you put into the place!
And I just noticed I have a green star again!
I assume the forum was down for awhile this weekend? I wasn't able to get on last night and this morning.
...and yes it's back up to speed
It's exciting to see this place getting worked on.

It's back to being slow this morning for me.
Thanks for the heads up, it was also slow for me this morning. I just made some config tweaks again.
Yeah that had my name written all over it. F'ing annoying, sorry about that.
