FR has started having big issues again. Want display properly

[real saxophonist]

So far today it’s working okay for me.

[central_va]

I went to my preferences and switched to 20 results per page.

Appears only 20 results displaying regardless of preference setting.

Perhaps it’s time for outside IT assistance to finally get it right & stable.

I went to my preferences and switched to 20 results per page.

I did that, but it still won’t load more than a few.

I switched to 20 results per page a few weeks ago when it had issues then. Now I can't even get the 20 results sometimes.

It looks like the back end times out before delivering the full results to the web server, then the web server returns the partial result to my web browser.

[TheStickman]

It’s been like that since 4am EDT that I know of.

Pages won’t load even with settings at 20/20. Doesn’t matter which browser I use pages do not fully load.

I see ping/posts to me I can’t read because the page never fully loads.

You’ re being soft zotted.....

I have centurylink DSL which was running at 28K for a while so It loads fine for me. Also have that windows virus Windows 8.1. Ordered a MAC so problem solved.

A little slow as usual, but working alright for me, except that I can’t open ‘pings’ on my profile page.

[Texas Fossil]

Have the same thing. When I look at pings, it resets the connection.

[Jamestown1630]

When I was alerted to your ping just now, I could open it. I think some features are just slow today.

[rrrod]

Has the revolution started? I need to get my pants on just in case....

[palmer]

It appears to be slowly dying. The fixes are not getting the system back up to prior performance. My guess is it is overloaded on the back end. There’s lots of data and more data every day, so the queries take longer and longer. Then there’s some kind of timeout to return a partial page both to avoid hanging up the front end and using up all available sockets making the back end unavailable even for maintenance.

[mountainlion]

Facebook has been doing the same thing.

[onona]

Just tried Firefox, and no issues at all. I even get the sidecar

I had the same problem. The problem goes away if I sign out, then go back to FR. Then no problems, but since I’m signed out I can’t leave any comments anywhere.

[deport]

Pings you say........ I get the following....

Secure Connection Failed

The connection to the server was reset while the page was loading.

The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because the authenticity of the received data could not be verified.
Please contact the website owners to inform them of this problem.

“Secure Connection Failed”

Yes, I was getting that too when I first logged in. Changing browsers didn’t seem to help; but after a while it cleared up and things are working as usual now.

[SkyDancer]

Slow but working okay with page loads, etc.
