There have been a lot of concurrent users on the site this evening, but so far I"ve found performance to be first class. Anyone else?


Still good this morning.

Phil"s worth every penny you"re not paying him.  ;D


;D ..... no hang on....  :-\

Anyway... all good by the looks on the database side, 20 hours since the config changes and all looks well

;D Happy days x

Great Steve. Havent seen any problems on the server, no spikes, no more spam attacks killing performance... database running happily. Over 24 hours now, looking good... keeping fingers crossed.


All good for me too since then. Great work Phil.

Would prefer if you didn"t do the ask image for member searches or PM"s but if it has to be done so be it. Half the time those char"s are unreadable and so tilting.


Thanks Andy. Since removing the "advanced search" from guest usage this has stopped the attacks which was causing the severe swings in database performance. As I"m not dealing with the typical spam registrations and posts on a daily basis this will be one for the mods to make a call on. Watch this space I guess...

Chart showing CPU usage over the last week.  I think we can say with some confidence now that the sites issues are behind us.

Great job Phil.   :)

Just spammed the NW players with PM"s. I send 10 at a time (max I think) and then wait for a while for the screen to return before sending another 10. This time the screen came back immediately after the first 10 and I spent a few minutes checking that it had worked because it was so slick.

Phil, for we that use APAT we salute you.........

Now it"s all bedded in for a few weeks, I think that it"s working quite nicely - well done.

But ... ::)

When I look at my private messages,the zebra-style summary at the top is all wrong (Firefox 12.0, but other browsers will be affected)  I"ve attached a screenshot.  This may not be a new problem - I"ve forgotten when I last saw it working properly (if it ever has) so it may not be related to the new server.

It"s being caused by the style rule at line 224 of http://www.apat.com/forum/Themes/theme1/style.css?fin11 which includes "display: table-cell", which is being applied to the tr element - which needs to be display:table-row.  Thus it doesn"t work as the page author hoped (because you cannot nest table cells*)

The fix is either 1) delete that property because it"s not necessary, but this may be unsafe, as it depends on what else might be using the "windowbg" class on the site; or 2) add a new style rule just under that one that does:  tr.windowbg { display: table-row }   This should be a lot safer, as it almost certainly won"t break anything else - and would save me having to correct it in Firebug every time I read my PMs!


  • The short version of why this happens is that you end up with all real cells in that row being put inside an anonymous table which fills one real cell (the "tr"), thus the entire "row" is squashed into the left most column of the main table.  The long version is complicated and available only on demand and when I"m not tired.
