Still brilliant here, back on Talk Talk Business

I just got a text from Dave.

It is sticky here too, I have notified support

Hopeless here again.

It's as fast as anything again now

back to full speed

Working fine now on both Plusnet and 3Dongle network but both were like treacle when I texted you.

Better than it was but not top speed by a long way.

That was better.

Now using orange dongle and all well here still.

So so far talktalk business good, orange blackberry good and orange dongle good.

How long for though?

Slowing up a noticeably 22:33

Not as bad as it has been, yet.

Periodically Slowing down noticeably 17:39.

They tweaked something on the server yesterday again.

Hopefully it will be OK now

Couple of times it took its time but nothing like its has been the last few days.

I hope it is fixed. I'd hate to have to move servers again after the hassle I had last time

I still think it's a graphic thing, and they have a good idea what.

I don't believe in co-incidences and the problems we are getting and the forum going down has to be related.

Having done a bit of research it appears that the avatar size could be slowing the forum down considerably.

I have changed the maximum avatar size to 150*150 pixels and made the maximum file size 20kb (it used to be 60kb)

This will not effect existing avatars, although I may try and compress a few of them to lessen the server load
