Are we all going to get sucked into a black whole with swirling fruit shoots, norks and emoticon and pop out in a parallel universe?
And will it breakdown after two weeks?

No.

All of it!

SuperBunny, we hope to be able to move to that soon. For now we still need the nightly downtime in order to do backups. However, once the new kit has bedded in we hope to be able to use an alternative which will mean no more downtime.

"it's not massively faster though is it?"
Right now, no it's not faster at all, but then we didn't expect it to be. The only times when you'll notice a difference are when it gets really busy. Whereas it used to become unbearably slow between about 7 and 10pm, now it should zip along nicely even during those peak periods. We just have to wait until one of those periods to find out if it's all worked as planned!

21 seconds is not good at all. Are all your posts taking that long? If so there is definitely a problem somewhere.

Threads are loading in a second or two in general so it sounds like an ad problem. We still have problems with some ads and it's going to take us a while longer to solve those unfortunately. The question is, on the slow ones, when the page finally comes up in your browser, is it always the same ad that is the first to appear?

Sorry, I know it's a pain!

"clicked 'threads i am on ' to find this to repoert back but it also took silly time! no adverts on thos pages.or no obvious ones anyway"
There should be ads on those pages, so what you have done is confirm that it's definitely an ad problem - it's spending some time trying to load the ad and then giving up. It's not doing it for anyone here so it's very hard to pin down.
Hopefully a pattern will emerge and we can then talk to the ad serving people about sorting it out.
