Speed of Forum

[American Psycho]

I have a pretty fast internet connection yet I find the forum pretty slow to load. Would love it if it could be made faster

Thanks. We have a current issue, which is that the latest version of vbulletin 5.2.3 doesn't work with PhP 7.0.9 This is a known bug and they are aware of it. So until the next version comes out, I had to revert PhP temporarily to 5.6.24, which is why we are slower.

That's ok then it will get fixed in time

We're upgraded to vbulletin 5.2.4 and have now reinstated PhP 7

Let me know if the speed seems better.

It's an improvement. Thanks for the response.

We are on an entirely new server now - a VPS (was on shared before). Let me know what you think.

We made some recent adjustments at the server level, and then a few days ago updated the databases to the latest formats. You should notice a marked increase now in speed of navigation and search.
