There was a power outtage at the datacenter around that time but it since has been resolved.  Sorry about that.

No worries... thanks for following up!

@maddog107 BZ is quite slow right now.

Update: back to normal operation but was slow as a snail for about a 12-hour period.

@maddog107 the forum is achingly slow again... the slowdowns seems to come and go.

Update: hours later still really slow, especially with uploads.

Update 6:20pm CST 4/18: seems to be back to normal now.

I try to visit Bellazon during the time when there is the least amount of people viewing the site and/or forum. 

I have a serious complaint regarding a manipulative forum member(s), see my post here:

Thanks in advance.

@maddog107 for forum is very sloooooooooow again and appears to be happening more frequently these days.

It's now getting worse on a more consistent basis.  Even simple forum functions have a huge delay.

Can't upload any new content at the moment.  Uploads fail 100% of the time.

So I rebuild the DB and rebooted the machine yesterday, so hopefully that helped.

What error are you getting? Or what types of files? Looked ok to me in that last post. 

Same here, I'm getting Error code -200

@maddog107 I can't upload any file too.

Can you try agian? I just changed something on CloudFlare. 

@maddog107 thank you it works for me now.

I just tried again and now it works, albeit the first time I got a 50% fail rate, so maybe it's stabilizing.

@maddog107 I tried a few more posts with 100% upload success, so it seems to be WAD (working as designed) now.  Operationally, BZ appears to be back to normal, too.  Thanks!

@maddog107 While the forum is performing much better than the last couple of days, there's still a significant lag while performing simple tasks like page loads, image uploads, etc.  It seems as if the compute and/or storage demands are exceeding the database or host server capacity resulting in accumulated performance degradation.
