SITE Slower Than Smoke off Road Apples

We've disabled some functions to increase speed. The traffic is high, but that may not be the problem. If the load increases again, then we know it's our "friendly" world neighborhood hacker trying to get at our mail servers again. Mark

Mark, certainly sympathize with the challenges of running a site, whatever the reason, the slowness has been persistent and if memory serves was a reason for migrating to a new ISP, site speed is no 1 priority for most users.....but dont take my word for it run a poll amongst users as to what variables are most important.

Thanks

Really, a server upgrade is in the works. We just want to make sure that it's really what's needed or if it's only a temporary need. Temporary traffic probably doesn't justify it, but permanently higher traffic levels do. If we're just being attacked by hackers/phishers then other methods (which we are working on) may be more appropriate. Then again, if it's just a matter of server power to fight back, then that's another matter. In any case, we'll be looking into this. Mark
