Site downtime as I change hosting package (1 Viewer)

[Jon]

What are you seeing in the logs Jon - i can help..
Remeber - XenForo allows batch size tuning!

Thanks for the offer, but I have submitted a support ticket after my various tries have failed.

 

[Jon]

I've upgraded to hosting with higher RAM just so I can do a Rebuild of the search. So, some temporary time out for the foruml

 

[Jon]

I've run the rebuild of the search cache. It was quick, so that concerns me! But Elasticsearch has 1,704,530 docs.

[root@server forums]# curl -k -u elastic:'B+paosshqgfdhV0WqrrG+K+' https://localhost:9200/_cat/indices?v
health status index        uuid                   pri rep docs.count docs.deleted store.size pri.store.size dataset.size
yellow open   accessac_xen bshsdfgg9uBQPuIxhgUFkxlg   1   1    1794530        38735      1.2gb          1.2gb        1.2gb

Can you guys run some tests on search to see if you think it is working ok now, and picking most things up?

I ran so tests yesterday. Accurate and QUICK!

It wasn't done completely yesterday! I only ran it all the way through today. It kept crashing yesterday, which is why I upgraded the RAM today.

A user's posts now seem to match their post count

If you're running a single node - Yellow is fine...

No redundancy so:

PUT accessac_xen/_settings
{
  "index": {
    "number_of_replicas": 0
  }
}

Will go Green

I have done some searches and identified no issues - definitely quicker all round!

Ran the same two tests I had reported earlier. LIGHTNING fast and looks like the right number of hits. Since my tests were quick-and-dirty, I can offer only impressions, not statistics, but ... WOW.

 

[tvanstiphout]

The site is up, but VERY slow.

 

[cheekybuddha]

Seems fine to me.

you still having problems, Tom?

The problem went away. Speed is good now.

 

[The_Doc_Man]

I noticed this afternoon (in my time zone, GMT+6 + Daylight Savings Time) that the site was very slow, but then the problem has apparently been resolved.

 

[Gasman]

I too could not even get on it at around 10PM (UK) last night.

That would correlate with Tom's experience

 

[Jon]

Just a quick check-in since the hosting change. How does search speed compared to before? All search posts there as you would expect? What about overall site speed?

 

[Gasman]

Search does seem very nippy. Appears to bring all the data, going by the number of pages shown.
Forums do seem a little faster as well.

Thank you Jon.

I don't use search that often to comment accurately but i do feel the speed of the site has improved in that links and overall performance seems noticeably quicker.

 

[The_Doc_Man]

I had reported a speed problem before that traced back to interactions with my browser (Firefox). After the re-hosting, I'm back on Firefox (goodbye, Edge) and as fast or faster than I ever was before.

Like Jason Lee Hayes, I'm not likely to search the forum very much - but what I've seen is faster than before. Hard to quantify, though.

 

[Isaac]

I never use Search, just can't think of a good reason to - but the site itself seems lightning fast - of course for me it was also fast before, too

when I click the dropdown under the top 5 posters by month and change it to April of 2025, and then click Go, it just refreshes the April 2026 page instead of showing me April 2025
