Slow loading times
« on: April 10, 2011, 04:26:56 pm »
Since this morning, Omnimaga has been loading atrociously slow for many people. Although script execution times are very normal (usually below 0.2s), many pages takes between 10 and 60 seconds to open at all.

We do not know if this is related to the DDoS attack the server on which we're hosted was hit by a few weeks ago, but it is not related to OmnomIRC, as even pages where OmnomIRC is not enabled (such as the admin panel) takes an incredible amount of time to respond.

If this continues for another while we will be contacting our host and possibly temporary migrate back to 1and1 for the time being, although this would take a while since I do not currently have FTP access and the only admin who is familiar with site hosting stuff (Eeems) is very inactive lately.

UPDATE (04/13/11): Things seems to be running smoothly again now. Last night we started having troubles again, but it seems resolved as for now. Another website hosted on the same server as Omnimaga was apparently running a stupidly MySQL-intensive script.

OmnomIRC waits for everything else on the page to load before running itself(so all components are loaded), which is why it may not be working for a lot of people.

By the way, Netham45, did you change anything in OmnomIRC code on our side? If so, I wonder if it could be caused extreme server load or something? It seems less likely, though, as the site execution time is low. It seems more like a server latency issue to me.

Also OmnomIRC logs are very slow sometimes too, although not as much as Omni.

I haven't touched OmnomIRC on the Omni side.


I should also note that since part of OmnomIRC is hosted on Omnimaga, refresh times for the chatbox will be very inconsistent.

Does Omni requests remotely hosted scripts for OmnomIRC and spybot45 when loading any site page? I know that when your host goes down with SpyBot45, posting here takes about 30 seconds and in Opera server loading status bar it goes back and forth between sending request to your IP address then completed request to Omnimaga.org about 10 times before something actually happens.

Only when loading OmnomIRC pages and when posting.

Ok but I really mean before the entire page even starts appearing. Does OmnomIRC do that too? if so, then it might be best to temporary kill any existing OmnomIRC code for the time being, to see if this solves the loading issue. Maybe my host blocked your new server or something.

Nope, OmnomIRC doesn't touch my server until after the 'Load OmnomIRC' disappears.

Ok that's good, then.

I guess then we're pretty much forced to move back to 1and1... (seeing as this has been happening for almost 24 hours)

I am seeing some anomalies in my logs for OmnomIRC with loading times.

I'm disabling it to see if the problem goes away.

I don't think it's the hosting, some people like me are connecting fine, I think an ISP that is relaying to most people is down and causing the issues for them, which makes sense that others would be connecting fine because they go through different ISP's.

Ok, thanks.

In case this is the server, I asked for site access until about midnight so I can perform a full backup. I think the last time files were backed up was in Feb.

I just checked the traffic stats and everything seems pretty normal for me, except that today they're much lower than usual.

EDIT: Nvm, their server hours are messed up: it says 5:47 AM PDT O.O
