I received a lot of errors over the weekend relating to a performance regression introduced in the last set of changes. Eugine, you were one of the people affected by these errors. I released a fix for this yesterday and have not seen those errors since. Work is also underway to migrate to a new database server.
Yes, it's been awfully unreliable lately. It's never been especially zippy, but the amount of "error 324" returned by the browser is now close to 50% for me. Maybe MIRI can spare a few hundred dollars a month on some decent hosting and static page service optimization.
Is it just me or has the server being unusually slow the past couple of days? During particularly bad times I'm even getting various HTTP errors.
