I can't delete a quadruple post I made earlier due to caf problems. I get the canae take the strain message.
The relaunched caf is like Hargreaves, I look at it and think wow and when I try to use it, it's fu*ked!
Yeah it comes and goes. We upgraded from MySQL 5.0 to 5.1 and it looks like the query optimizer may be using the wrong index for certain queries. They're taking 30+ seconds to complete and eventually back up the available threads and everything comes grinding to a halt until the backlog is cleared and things go back to normal for a short while.
As (another) last resort, we may have to roll back to 5.0 which would also mean a database rollback to the Saturday's backup.
I am getting errors across the board, failing to open certain threads, the 30 second posting limit when I haven't posted and then crashing for good measure.
Whatever it is that the site infrastructure requires you ought to do as it is clearly not right, it appears more problematic than it was over the weekend. I am sure people would understand.
Posting is still causing a problem on my AppleMac. It's either slow or doesn't react at all when I press "submit reply" button. It's also slow when I try to enter another thread.
Ok we've made a change to a problematic query so can people let me know if things are performing better? It was specifically related to posting, so post away in here to your hearts content and let me know if you see any more errors.
