POA seems sluggish, slow

[Half Fast]

Just got this. Hadn't seen it before.

 

[Chrisgoesflying]

Very slow all day today, sometimes to a point where it won't load at all.

There's a rumor that it's a denial of service attack launched by the AOPA Board of Trustees.

Makes sense. They've been denying service to us for quite a while now.

HIGH WING ATTACK!! (hence why it’s so slow)

Unlikely that they could get their **** together to attempt such a thing

7:02 PM eastern, two slow clicks , one for "new posts" and one to get to this thread.

A second problem was hiding under the first problem. I did some more housekeeping this morning. Should be better now.

I have been completely unable to see the site from my windows browser or i-device(ipad) browser for the past 3 days or so. Samsung phone/android seems to work though. Having no issues seeing any other websites from any of these platforms.

Thanks for all the hairpulling you've been doing. It appears better here in Carolina ...

Round up the usual suspects?

The usual suspects must be back out on bail.

Similar issue.
-Three iOS devices and Windows PC.
(Safari, Chrome, Firefox)(VPN On or Off)

-wifi: unable to open POA website for about two/three days
-cellular: no problem opening pilotsofamerica.com

 

[Half Fast]

Seems much quicker this evening.

 

[Justin M]

No problems toss evening.

 

[Piperonca]

Going lickety split!

 

[Justin M]

Delay clicking “new posts” at 5:52 am eastern 2-18.

Then fine at 5:54 am

Do these reports help?

A simple test shows that response times are usually in the 200ms range, except that every 5-10 minutes, it spikes to an order of magnitude higher.

I've experienced the same PoA sluggishness as everyone else recently, but this morning for the first time, I got this:


Happened repeatedly for ~3-4 minutes a few minutes ago. Seems to be back to "normal sluggishness" now.

 

[Initial Fix]

I had it happen 10 minutes ago. And yesterday too.

 

[Gary Ward]

I am also having trouble logging on some days. Minutes later it will be OK.

PoA is being sluggish again for me today. A couple of hours ago, it wouldn't load pages at all; I kept getting timeout errors. Right now they're intermittently loading at normal speed or with up to 10s of seconds of delay.

 

[Half Fast]

Same here.

I believe the Iranians have picked up on our discussion of the A-10 and are attempting a denial of service attack on POA. We should bomb them to improve website speed.

It seems to be doing better now. Note that it is now 10:30pm in Iran. They may have quit for tonight.

But Iran so far away…..
