      This is with Avatars off in the CP.

      When the Avatars were deactivated the times were all less then 30 seconds.

        It seem to speed up.
        0.22 seconds to load the redirect page
        11.09 seconds to load the thread after my reply
        and 6.21 seconds for this reply page.
        I'll do a threadlisting test as well...
        ...
        ...
        82.83 seconds
        and finally the index page: 25.71 seconds

        It is faster then last time. But still slower then before.

          I think we need serious rationing of avatars until the server can handle it properly. Only those with reg dates of 1970/69 should have avatars.

          Why does the system force you (or appears to force you) to download the avatars fresh each time. Surely the temp files can be used?

            I've noticed a definite slow down as well

                    It has to do with a bug in the vB database that holds the Avatars. There is a hack for it that makes the Avatars to be stored as files. But Markos doesn't use it.

                      Refuses to use it, or hasn't got around to using it?

                      Maybe even six of one and half a dozen of the other.

                        I don't know, I posted a link a while ago. But Markos never commented on it.

                              The server is too busy at the moment or the maximum number of guests have been exceeded. Please try again in a few minutes.

                              It isn't fair Never ran into this when the Avatars were disabled.
