Dorki has been running slow as hell today for me. Anyone else? I submitted a support ticket to the host - I think we got on a shared server with someone else who is a CPU hog.

This is going to suck trying to get this resolved. I'm pretty sure we're just being overloaded on the server that we're on. However, whenever I open a ticket it sits for an hour, the site speed picks back up and I get a response "everything looks pretty quick from here!". They told me to try a traceroute. Given the number of people seeing this issue, I'm doubting its a network latency issue.

So, I have no idea how the software is designed or deployed but it appears to me that the server is only having issues returning the dynamic content (main html page). When the site has been slow I've watched the content delivery metrics and it's always delayed on the main HTML content -- which I'm assume is generated dynamically and probably by accessing the database of content. All static content seems to be delivered fairly instantly. So, could be CPU or DB bottleneck. Another strange thing I've noticed is that responsiveness of TapaTalk access to Dorki hasn't been an issue for me?

Having to refresh almost every page. Even stops render half a page down. I keep listening for the modem squeal to see if it is redialing. Hold on, here comes the ASCII art of Cheryl Tiegs. Oh yeah!

This is irritating - it's running fine for me right now. I did see some slowness earlier this evening though, but not 60s+ renders though.

OK, more fun. Right now I cannot get to Dorki from my house in Germantown. FIOS 80Mbps connection. I mean I get NOTHING - the entire site times out.

downforeveryoneorjustme.com says: dorkiphus.net is up. Damnit.

I'm posting this from a remote log in to a server that is physically located in Michigan. Browsing Dorki on this machine and it is lightening fast. No delays whatsoever. This is being done at the same time while the connection from my house to Dorki is timing out.

WTF? Network issue? Those seeing slowness, where are you and who's your ISP? I'm in Germantown using Verizon FIOS.
