Board loads slow

[charlottezweb]

Have you tried migrating the threads from the old to the new board?

Depends on what you mean by that.  I did manually move one thread from one of the slow boards to a brand new board and it did the same thing as I described above...

Is that just supposed to show the db queries?

If so, they don't even add up.

I saw one that said page created in 33 seconds with 13 queries.  Then when you view the queries below and add them up, they don't come close to even half of a second.

That shows it's not database related then, any of the topics have a lot of bbc code in? I'd suggest trying upgrading it to 1.1 RC1 which has a rewritten bbc parser.

  I just suggested 1.1 rc 1 to him not less than 3 minutes ago.

I think that's our next step.  Thanks

It wouldn't be the BBC code though would it? It's slow accessing the board as well, not just the post itself?

[Ben_S]

There is some degree of bbc processing done on the boardindex for some reason IIR.

upgrade to rc1 complete...still slow on those two boards

[itsjustme]

Ok, rechecked both boards, they are still slow loading, no change.

On the home page, I use ssi's, to list 25 or more of the topics on those two boards.  The home page loads fast, no delay getting them in.

When you click on one of the links produced by the ssi's, it goes straight to the board, no delay.  (both stores and hot deals)

But if you go to the forum index, then click on either of those two boards, that's where the delay is.

OK, I got it working fast now... one board so far anyways.

What's going on is, for some reason, when itsjustme posted all those links using HTML it slowed the boards down. Now, when I switched it all to BBC code, it's blazing fast again.

Is there a reason why it's having trouble with HTML?

[Joshua Dickerson]

This is a little odd. It is just that one board - Stores. Now to figure out what is wrong with it. It does load part of the message in the messageindex. You said that you removed the HTML from the other board, right? So what happens if you move certain topics out of that board - maybe we can figure out which topic is causing it to figure out what is causing that. I would look at the code itself, but I am not on my computer right now.

[Killer Possum]

It actually seems to be all the boards containing HTML. See, I cleaned the first 10 topics and it went fast, however, if you went to the second page of topics (which at the time still had HTML, looks like they are edited now) it would be slow.

[Joshua Dickerson]

I assume you mean all of the topics containing HTML.

I am guessing what is happening is that the part of messagindex.php where it grabs the first 128 characters from the first and last message in the topic, it is getting caught in a loop because of parse_bbc wanting to 'fix' the HTML. I might be wrong. On the other hand, it could be the fact that it does strip_tags after doing parse_bbc... I have to delve more deeply in to this.

[Killer Possum]

Err... yeah sorry, it's late

[itsjustme]

I am going through and changing all to bbc. That is why some of the stores pages are going fast.  I can leave one page worth, or create another board to keep some copies in if we want to keep for reference.

I have this same problem with one of my boards.  Everything else loads super fast.  It takes on average 25 seconds to load!

ok, all I had to do was uncheck "enable basic html in posts" and BAM!  Fixed!!  Went from 25 second query to 0.11 seconds.

hmm.. this is a common problem I have been seeing. Going to report it as a bug

I'm using 1.05 by the way.
