Website slow

[Ibrahim]

Update: While I'm having some success with the fix, I'm having a slowdown on another browser even though the first browser is able to access fast.

I'm digging into this more and looking at fixes. Sorry for continued frustration and please do let me know here if it seems fixed for you or if you have more problems!

Well here it is just as bad if not worst. It is like our American government going to hell in a hand basket.

So it best for me to delete my secure password and user email address from Firefox and forget the site. I threaten to do this enough so today is the day that I do it. I had plan to leave the site on June 30 if things didn't improve, the site just had to piss me off this morning. BYE BYE.

Besides the heatwave here seems to breaking and I got a lot work to get done. Z930 where both transaxle got come out, a 345 where the gas tank needs removing to clean it out, Finish up a Toro ZTR, try get the HPX going hoping it was just a carb problem, Hustler with broken transaxle mounts, kid's ATV repair, etc [8 plus major repairs] . And those just came in this week. Not mention the 6 acres is overgrown and need a lot of mowing to be done. The only thing that went right this week was I finally got a haircut Friday.

Let us know if the performance has improved for you. We're working on getting it fixed. Thanks

I don’t see any changes this morning. Took me 30 minutes of trying before it let me log in and forum is very slow. I appreciate all your efforts and can’t wait for you to resolve the problem. Good Luck.

If you encounter a slow load, try a new browser window. That seems to be something that's going on right now where one browser will be hanging but another will load fine.

I think I’ve tried that in the past, to no avail. You must remember that many of us can fix most small engines, but are computer idiots, that’s me.

Hello Muhammed,

StarTech is a huge loss along with a couple of others who have more quietly just disappeared. Small engines is a tough business and only getting tougher due to lack of a knowledge base. This site is a huge asset to the small engine community.

So far, today the site seems to be stable and not lagging to excess. Thanks for all of your efforts.

Yes, we will make sure it gets fixed up and running smooth again.

I was actively working on it this morning and did manage to break it before getting it on again.

When you have the hangups, does it not load the main forum page? Or does the forum page load but you can't click on login/links/etc.?

I'm just trying to narrow it down because I'm also experiencing slowdowns and trying to figure out a pattern is a big help for diagnostics.

Doesn't go anywhere at all. Just times out for me on updated Firefox and Windoze 11. Pages do not load.

Most times it will not load anything. Other times I will type in a reply, but it will not allow me to post it. I must quit the site, not log out, open new, reenter my material and try to post.
