Seeing a lot of 'server busy' and 'DB' errors

[RockRunner]

I saw server busy last night for about 20 min. probably 11:40pm-12

Same here and today around 9:00 p.m.

Thanks for the updates guys. The admin team is looking into this further. It sounds like even though we made changes in the right direction to move our images out of the DB and into flat files on the server, we're still having performance problems querying the database. If a query to the database takes too long, then it gets aborted by the system and you get an error.

The team will continue to look into other options for upgrading to our own dedicated server and/or considering a new host.

No one else seems to be complaining so I assumed it is just me. Ever since the recent "maintenance" the RS site is so sssssllllooooooooooowwwwwwwwwwww! I figured it was my firewall but it still creeps with it disabled. I have cleared my cashe and have done all the other optimizing tricks and nothing makes any difference. Am I just special?

No, it's not you. It's extremely slow for me as well.

We're still working on it. We made some additional tweaks a few days ago. Please keep telling us how it's working.

Only skimmed over a couple time so far today. It does seem better but still hangs.

FYI:

Hello

The server your site is on is experiencing a technical issue with mysql at the moment. Our administrators are working on it and do expect to have everything back online shortly.
