If the server is under load the query is going to take longer to perform due to lack of resources and because of the nature of PHP and MySQL if you get annoyed by the slowness and keep clicking links or refreshing pages trying to force it to load the page all you're doing is queuing up more queries for MySQL to execute and increasing the load on the server. <br /> <br /> The thread list uses one of the most complex queries in Beehive so you can imagine what happens if you keep trying to refresh the thread list all the time.<br /> <br /> It's not easy balancing the server performance between Apache and MySQL mostly because I haven't a clue how to set up MySQL to best suit our needs and searching for the right information reveals fuck all because all it's all along the lines of "try this" and "do that" without actually telling you what it does or why you should change it.<br /> <br /> So yeah. Like it or lump it or we a) prune the database <i>drastically</i> or b) get together some money again to upgrade the hosting. We should probably do that again soon anyway as we'll need to be paying soon I would have thought. </div> <div class="message_footer"> <div class="message_footer_links"><a href="lpost.php?webtag=DEFAULT&reply_to=29871.14&return_msg=29871.5" class="reply"><span class="image post"></span>Reply</a></div> <div class="message_vote_form" data-msg="29871.14"> <span class="rating">0/0</span> <span class="image vote vote_down vote_down_off" title="Vote Down"></span> <span class="image vote vote_up vote_up_off" title="Vote Up"></span> </div> </div> </div></div> <div class="message_page_footer"> <ul> <li class="right_col"><form accept-charset="utf-8" method="get" action="lmessages.php" target="_self"><input type="hidden" name="webtag" id="webtag" class="bhinputtext" value="DEFAULT" dir="ltr" /><input type="hidden" name="msg" id="msg" class="bhinputtext" value="29871.15" dir="ltr" /><input type="submit" name="submit" id="keep_reading" value="Keep reading…" class="button" /></form></li> </ul> </div> </div> </body>
