IW slowing down? - Page 2

Sir Goulum · 02-09-2006, 06:10 PM

No slow down up north. In fact, I thought it got a little faster.

{edit timed out on all 30) and Z your PM box is full.

For you atleast, the issue is some server inbetween you and I. Hmm..

You know, I've had slowdown a lot since I've been here, and I've always suspected it was happening inbetween. Could it be a dns server somewhere is pointing to the wrong place, or something like that?

I'd really like to know where the signal time out...

Ilander · 02-09-2006, 07:34 PM

I've had significant slowdowns lately when trying to post...the thing just hangs, sometimes for twenty seconds....a couple of times, I had to hit the stop button, and then "Add reply" again, which took off immediately.

EDIT:...like when submitting this post...

I run into the same thing as Ilander. I'll post, but it will sit waiting for IW for a while. I've gotten to where if it sits for more than five seconds or so, I stop and repost. Like my last post... resubmitted twice.

I don't have long waits here on IW, but I still ran a tracert in case it will help you. After some jumps (which I didn't detail since they won't be too interesting), I get to the above mentioned one on the 22nd jump and after that the requests all time out. Is it possible that the next step doesn't reply to pings?

Same as Sir G.

Bungleau · 02-10-2006, 09:29 AM

Just made a post, and it took several minutes to go through. My tracert hung just after the same place that dplax did... only my times for that hop were in the 70ms range.

15 92ms 71ms 71ms gig0-3.tampflp44-ubr1.tampabay.rr.com [65.32.15.117]

It timed out for the remainder of the 30 hops.

dplax · 02-10-2006, 05:29 PM

That difference is probably from the fact that I ran tracert from the other side of the Atlantic.

Bungleau · 02-10-2006, 05:41 PM

Agreed. Physical distance does have an impact.
