and to crash for a lengthy period on the biggest night of the SA Footy calendar is horrendous.
Imagine if it wasn't being shown on TV?
(not a crack at Diss either by the way, it's not like he's the one making it crash all the time) - but lets face it - the software is sucking.
We had 280 odd people on here on Magarey night a few years back without any drama, nowdays the site crashes with not even 60 people on it.
I'm a techo dummy - but trying to blame the amount of people on here just doesn't add up.
Way more people on the site 5 years ago in general compared to now.
I haven't blamed the number of people on here.
The software is a bucket. And every post, every update, and every word search match is a drop of water. It doesn't matter about the influx of the last few months - drops don't disappear.
Number of posts in the posts table before I send this: 2,082,136
And so you can search the forum, the software indexes all words in all posts and has it's own table for that.
The number of records in that table? 47,927,603
And people tracking topics - there's over 1.5M records in that too
First thing I'll probably do is untrack all posts.
