Things going slow again?

Gotta love Sod's Law, eh? Now I'm getting the timeouts. 🤦‍♀️

It's as bad as it was in the bad old days of a few months ago

I am getting many vanilla errors today and the usual (as it has become) periodic slow downs

This problem does seem to be exclusive to MSE as I haven't had a gateway time out on any other site for many years

It’s not just MSE for me, I am having cloudflare issues with other websites as well

Thanks everyone.

I've let our forum provider know and drawn their attention to this thread.

Can safely sat that what ever they did has not worked....

Hi everyone

We're definitely chasing this!

We have confirmation that some initial work appears to have solved the problem on Monday afternoon and Tuesday,  but there were significant spikes of time-outs again today.

It's been flagging this to the group working on this issue.

Error after error this afternoon, or very long loading times. Thought I was back on dial up for a moment.

Keep getting spinning when trying to mark a red cross etc..

Not happening anywhere else and speed check fine.

Keep getting maintenance now

Yes, this maintenance screen...

And interestingly, when one clicks on those words 'Service Status', we see this screen...
status.vanillaforums.com

In turn, that status screen shows us that for the last ninety days all systems in Europe have been 100% 'Operational'.
Scrolling down that page we see that for the last two weeks - 7th August to 21st August - there have been 'No incidents reported'.

Still not right 

Tried to post a reply on another thread and it timed out

3rd gateway timeout this morning alone and the usual delays when clicking threads

Has MSE simply chosen the wrong provider? This has been going on for a long time now
