Thanks for fixing it up. :)

With FT down/slow, I actually had to do something I really hate doing today... work with no goof-offs! (I too had to check other sites to make sure that it wasn't my machine that was slow but, in fact, FT...) Get well soon, Flyertalk!

It is early morning and I need my FT fix....

It is still slow...

Get well soon FT. :)

Seems as if its back to full strength, good job fellas!

Have not had this problem whatever until 3 minutes ago when I got TEN identical notifications to a new post here:

FT has also been incredibly slow for me too John FWIW, including the past few hours. Where it has been slower than ever, so VERY surprised to read the post before mine?

But seems like you are on top of rectifying things. Thanks. ^

Very slow, to the extent that I frequently get the "website not available" message.

Still slow here. :( :( :( :( :(

Poor performance in San Diego
 

Performance is erratic. Some threads are loading quickly now, and they weren't 2 hours ago. Yet this thread took 5 minutes to load - ironic.

Sorry, John. :(

... very slow here... getting timeouts during postings that are taking ~2 min as I watch the blue progress bar inch along on the bottim of my screen... are the 500 people in chat tonight gonna blow up FT?

Definitely erratic, sometimes things load quickly and sometimes they don't load at all. It all went downhill after that maintenance. I'm feeling the symptoms of FT withdrawal coming on....

Whatever you guys did to it - you broke it. :(

Very slow most of yesterday, with short bursts of normal response/load times. Very slow/timed out/completely broken most of today. :(

Murphy's Law concerning mid-week maintenance or repairs to websites or LANs: It will always be several days before the damage caused by the "scheduled downtime" is repaired. :)

Seriously, though, I realize that you are probably hard at work repairing it as I type - just hope it is fixed in time for the slow Saturday afternoon/Sunday morning timeframes.

Good luck, FlyerTalk guys. :)

Ditto what FWAAA says.

Still long delays and an occaisional "There seems to have been a slight problem with the FlyerTalk Forums database." at 5:30pEDT.

Is there a DBA in the house?

More than just occasional for me. I am sure the techies are working on it as quickly as possible.

Should FT actually be shut down if it will speed up their efforts?

Hello, it is 1AM Swiss time and still VERY slow. Does not really matter, just wanted to inform. Keep the good job.
