Server Appears Slow at Times
Fri Sep 27 2024

I'm not sure if it's just me, but I am seeing some very slow responses to clicking on people's entries. Unfortunately there is no feedback from the browser to suggest that anything is happening, so it looks like the click didn't happen - but it did, it's just being slow.

I am investigating...

Please let me know if you guys are, or are not, experiencing the same?

Ta,
Steve.

UPDATE: This appears to be related to how many entries are in your diary - the bigger diaries are slower to load... My changes that I'm making in the background may fix this so I'm going to put it on hold for a bit longer. But please let me know if you're seeing the same issue.

    Everything seems pretty snappy to me. No issues to speak of.

    My public and follower diary load up quite quickly, but my private diary that I've had for over 20 years takes a bit of time )

      I think it's related to the amount of entries in the diary. I'm working on a different platform which may improve things, or if it doesn't I'll come up with some way of restricting how many entries are in the calendar and entrylist at once...

    On my followers only diary, when I click on notify followers, it doesn't let me click that box. Is it because I haven't got anyone following that one yet?

      No, there's no logic that looks at whether you have followers or not - can you email me a screenshot of what you're seeing and I'll take a look.

    I do not see a slowness.

      Excellent - if others aren't seeing it so much then it's not a big issue. Thanks for your feedback!
