The other thing that seems to kill it is running system maintenance in the background, typically the site is slow, we panic and I promptly grab as many backups as I can, 'just in case' running backups of the SQL database seems to hit the site quite badly which would suggest lack of CPU cycles or RAM, typical on a virtualised host. These days I will only run a backup very last thing at night so impact to users is minimal.

So yes please continue good times and bad times.

One other (highly unlikely) thing is it could be deliberate, stalling forums is a relatively simple exercise once you know how.

Yup, same for me, site was unresponding for some 30 secs.

I think he means it was quick..

Yeah ok

I thought he meant slow.
It was for me.

In our very large bank we had call centres up and down country but processing in one city. Traffic peaked both ways.

We found data cicuit capacity caused bottlenecks in our web based infrastructure.

I'm sure you have thought about this...but a service provider can be less than helpful in disclosing their well known short comings....bot attacks?

Just me not getting the saying is all.

To me that saying means slow, s*** off a showel, well it sticks doesn't it. Eg slow to get of.
