Server downtime and slowness

Tags: Uncategorized — Author: @ 10:17 pm

As you’ve probably noticed, Finland for Thought has been down or really slow. I’ve been working with my web host to fix this. Now it’s up but running really slowly.

If anyone here is a MySQL expert, please please e-mail me, my MySQL server is taking up wayyyy too many of my system resources.

The site looks a little different because I’ve reverted back to my old theme. Bear with me over the next couple days while I try and resolve this.

    Is your database indexed according to the WordPress queries?

    Damn, I was going to suggest checking if your missing a database index.

    WordPress setup my database and manages it, I never touch it really except to run the optimize command sometime.s

    Found a useful article about MySQL optimisation for you:

    By the way, now this blog seems to be screwing up its cookies or something. I get the “Name” field prefilled with various posters, some of them well-known frequent contributors. So far, I’ve been at least Toby and Mirkku. The latter one got my girlfriend looking over my shoulder a little suspicious.

    Franklin :D Haven’t noticed that kind of behaviour myself
