Many of you may have noticed how appallingly slow this forum has been lately and you may have also noticed long periods where it has been completely unavailable, or has timed out after you click on something.
I am having some problems with the host that it is on at the moment. They seem to be sharing the server with too many others and they have reduced the amount of CPU that I am allocated, but will not tell me the limit. Instead, they are now simply suspending queries from this site that they say are taking too much CPU. My complaints about this have resulted in them offering me a premium package which costs a lot extra per month.
This forum does not make enough revenue from its ads, or in donation from some members to cover the costs of better hosting, so I'll have to shop around and maybe migrate the site to another host soon that is not so crowded. Please bear with the outages and slowness in the mean time. I will work to minimise them and eventually eliminate them, but it may be a while.
