(PS: Anyway, I'll just do it manually.... I am not very comfortable running batch commands against the DB without being "in the loop" ... )
Thanks a TON Neo for helping here, trust me it is after 2 months I am replying from my own pc(I was working on this site from a friend's Remote pc). I too complained about this few days back in thread Regarding not able to access UNIX.com site

Still I am seeing a very little glitch there, though it is manageable, I would like to request you if we could put some monitoring or etc for this so that we could FIX it if that happens again because I can't LIVE without UNIX.com Smilie

Thank you again for helping here sir.

Thanks,
R. Singh

Hi Ravinder,
What "little glitch" are you seeing?

Cheers,

Our site has been using MAXCDN for many years, and we made a lot of code mods to make the maximum use of this CDN for many years.

Recently, this CDN has stopped delivering content in many locations, but in the past this problem cleared itself.

Yesterday, i spent many hours removing references to the CDN and backing out all the code mods so we will not use this CDN at this time.

There could be some small glitches in a missed reference to the CDN, but so far, all looks good on this end. Naturally, some locations using with ISPs who use a proxy cache server may experience some small glitches until their ISP proxy caches have cleared.

Please feel free to report any abnormalities, of course.

Overall, all the moderators and admins across the globe have reported that the site is running fast and in the US, Don Cragun is reporting sub second load times.

I'm on the opposite site of the world and the site is running without glitches and is quite fast, and I'm currently on 3G instead of the fiber optic link in my condo due to a network service provider issue.

Please post any bugs or problems and we will definitely look into them, especially if you have the specific details.

Thanks!

I view mostly as an outsider in the UK and not log in but in that mode I have not noticed much difference in performance nor any strange effects.

Some adverts can cause a slowdown but as I have not logged in then that would be my problem.

Bazza.

I just optimized the DB again, so you might have noticed a couple of minutes when the site was slow.

Thanks for your patience!
