Please read this post, don't just skim it, and take the attached poll, it is very important.
As most of you know, I am chasing a problem where the Photo Gallery related items are responding slower than the rest of the system. To some degree this would be normal. But what is being reported is not. So far the only thing I am sure of, is that your connection has nothing to do with the problem.
The biggest problem I have in debugging this, is that I'm not sure how widespread the problem is. Subjectively, it appears that only a few people have this problem and it is NOT related to their connection speed. If that is really the case then, I probably should just work with one or two of them and isolate the nature of the their problem.
I have made a few changes in the web server tuning parameters and in the next 24 hours, I should get a feel, if that has helped. In the meantime, I have attached this poll, to give me a better feel how wide spread this problem is.
Please remember that we looking at the relative difference between the response time of the forums and the Gallery. If the forums are slow then the gallery will be. What I am looking for is if at the time you take the poll, the cases in the poll are much slower the forums.
One last word, in any 24 hour period, approx 120 different users visit the site. Please don't treat this poll as you do most of the others. I really need as many responses as I can get. So 24 hours from now, I expect at least 100 responses. Am I asking a lot, yes. But please help this old fart get to bottom of this problem.
Thanks
