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!

Along with the slow response, I'm getting erratic multiple responses to threads - 8 for one post by missydarling for example, and 3 notifications each for a couple of other posts.

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.

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.
Sorry, John.

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.

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?
