Were you sufficiently discouraged? Evidently not.

He's still here so it must not work very well

It might not work on GOD MOD's. Who should you or @Jim14510 try it out on for testing purposes? If I were Jim, I'd discourage @Baron Winnebago for science's sake.

Where I live here in Montana - about 5 miles outside of town so not too far - they don't have wired internet at my place. Almost 2023 and no fucking wired internet. So I have to go with wireless internet. Been about 1.5 years now on T Mobile home internet (wireless), which is a LOT faster than the 1 to 2 mb speed of the old wireless I had here for many years (it was literally the only option available before T Mobile wireless home internet). T Mobile home internet has been slow for me here for many months now - frustrating. I mean I feel good when my speedtest shows 7 mbs download. It used to hit 25 and up to 75 mbs DL, T Mobile says they don't throttle, but I think they are full of shit. Strangely, upload (which is usually slower than DL on most internet services) hits 30 to 40 mbs, so it's not the 5G connection to the T Mobile router I don't think.

Anywho, yes, I have noticed a lot of slowness on TPB lately. Thought it may just be my internet, but I have had this site actually pop up a "website unavailable" page several times the last few days. Any other sites were loading normally, so maybe it was just your cheap godaddy Garrett (I am joking).

It does seem faster tonight FWIW, so maybe the upgrade did help.

Follow up, does anyone know more about web hosting?

We are currently on GoDaddy and have 1 virtually allocated CPU core and 2gb of ram. The next step up is 4 virtually allocated cores and 8gb of ram for an extra $30/month. Does anyone know if that sounds like something we could use and if it’s worth it? Or if we should move to a different host completely?

@Saudi_aurora @alt f4 I feel like both of you know about this stuff if I remember correctly

I have the upgraded vps that you mention, and runs about 20-30 sites at any given time. Still has its intermittent “slowness” despite only ever hitting about 40% of our max cpu usage. I’ve been researching other options as well, for scaling but I’m lazy, we’re in busy season, and the transition will suck.

TpB works perfect for me all the time, no issue at all with speed. On3 however, has problems and gives an error message that "you
Need to subscribe to view content" so you need to log out then login again, like once a week. Dean never solved the problem and it continues until now.

 

[BorWhiskey]

I’ve not noticed anything. I pretty exclusively check out the site in my phone, though, so wonder if the mobile version has better speeds.

 

[cwessel76]

It does seem a lot faster after the upgrade my dude

 

[Irv]

Painfully slow at times today.

Maybe it’s all that porn you’re downloading.

That’s not good, the upgrade went through last night

It's much faster for me fwiw. Was very slow more often than not for me the last two weeks or so, much faster today.

There have just been a few times where it really doesn't want to load. Working well now.

 

[Jim14510]

Has been working fantastic for me since the upgrade. Would stick every now and again prior to that.

 

[God is a Husker]

not a problem in the 308 @HuskerGarrett


in 2023 or 2024 when we get that internet made out of fiber or whatever you city slickers been yapp’n about I’ll get the radar gun out and have the site run the 40 and 3 cone drill

 

[Turn Down for What]

Maybe it’s all that porn you’re downloading.

Link is broken.
