ubercart.org is extremely slow, and generates Drupal MySQL error pages half of the time.

By the way, did old posts, juice and settings got lost in a crash or something? I have 1 post and no settings left.

Slow... yeah, it sucks. There's a private school on our temporary server that runs some resource hungry chat program. Every now and then it makes our sites all extremely slow. I've offered to modify a MUD for them to meet in (or heck, I've got a chat server written in FreeBASIC I'd happily donate Eye-wink). Should be sorted out in the near future... as soon as we get back to the UberServer.

Oh yeah, check out the news posts for info on the crash. We got hit in a baaad way. Evil

No, the Ubercart admin hates you and stole all your juice...

Just kidding, indeed, gone in a big Dell breakdown.

I get these errormessages too.

Ubercart is running slow because it is currently sharing it's physical server with several other high traffic sites including one running a "web chat" with maybe 100 people. As soon as the chat is over (about 1 hour) Ubercart should be back to normal. Some time this weekend we are moving the other website to it's own server which should fix this problem.

Some old posts, and all old juice got lost in a crash about three weeks ago.
Peace, Andy

I see. Chat ... we all know what kind of nasty business takes place in a chat, so I'm not surprised the server is on its knees. Smiling Well, I probably didn't write anything memorable, so the crash doesn't affect me as much as it perhaps did others.

It's much faster now.
