I'm not sure there is a definitive timetable for resolution of this problem at the moment, but Kevin and the guys are stepping through a process that will hopefully have the site running quickly again sooner rather than later.
Mikel, thanks for the explanation.

In as non-tech a manner as possible, can you explain what the major issues are with FlyerTalk as to speed, tiime-outs and the like? As you know, these issues pre-date IB and have plagued us periodically over the years.

Perhaps it's just growing pains for a robust IBB and others suffer a similar fate. I don't know because I rarely stray from FT and haven't experienced this slowness at other websites.

I realize you don't know the answer or somebody would fix it. But I was curious as to what issues you think are affecting us here.

Thanks..
