vBulletin.com running very slowly and timing out a lot April 18th 2011

You shouldn't have to read a post again to understand what is said! It should be readable the 1st time it is read....

Ok, quick glance, understand, confirm you understand by reading again.

I second that...I don't notice a huge 'slowness' but I am on a crappy ISP...probably is going slow and I am just used to it...I do know other sites load quicker .

Hasn't seemed slow to me at all. Perhaps the issue was during the upgrade attempt 1 and actual upgrade. If they were making changes to the database structure and file system, this would definitely cause a slowdown if it was during a period of normal to high traffic.

Only time the site was noticeably slow to me was in November 2009 when they rolled out the new vBulletin 4 site and everyone was at once trying to finally see what they paid in advance for.
