Failbooru

Failbooru only occurs when I view user profiles. Usually it goes away after a few refreshes but it has taken up 10 minutes on rare occasions for Failbooru to pass.

And here I thought the issue was solved. I only received it once or twice a day while doing anything on this site, usually during the time when it's most busy.

Just to chime in, I still get it all the time while browsing user profiles, and alternatively get the "database has timed out" message a lot just browsing images.

To everyone, when you do getting majority of your failbooru incidents timezone? Maybe it has something to do with how Danbooru become extremely active during certain time of the day.

I still get them on user pages at all times of the day. I don't think I have ever loaded a user page without at least one failbooru in the past 2-ish months.

I usually get it while looking up user tag edit histories or user comment histories and stuff. It seems totally random to me.

Most of mine come from looking at user profiles when I'm reading comments

I'm fairly sure it's just caused by bursts of traffic overloading the Apache queue. I'll try increasing the process count but short of getting another dedicated server for load balancing I don't think there's a long term solution for this.

Actually I notice now that traffic bursted in September through December and actually decline significantly again in January so it doesn't look like traffic is the issue. For whatever reason traffic fell sharply on December 28, which was around when the artist changes were deployed. But that doesn't really affect post listings much so I'm puzzled why it would cause increased resource usage. I'm going through past commits now.

Not sure if this is just me, but I've also noticed in just the last few days a huge slowdown when updating posts. Tag edits, approvals, voting. Think this could be part of the same problem (if other people are experiencing it as well)?

It's not just you, roastbeefy. The site has been incredibly slow for me too lately, so much that anything from calling up the forums to downloading the an image has become burdensome.

Can anyone tell me when the site started feeling slower than usual?

A week or so ago.

I only noticed it getting really slow about yesterday.

EDIT: Gosh, right now it's so bad I can hardly use the site at all.

Just got a persistent failbooru at the front page.
Time stamp: 11:00AM - 11:20AM (GST -6hrs)

FWIW, I get the occasional (less than one per day) failbooru message while using Danbooru (they don't seem to be linked to any one particular feature), but they always go away within the minute after a few refreshes, and they don't affect anything else I'm doing on the site (so I can view another post in a new tab even as I'm getting a failbooru for posting a comment, for example).

I started to get failbooru when I was viewing my profile. It went away after a minute or two, but it was weird considering I rarely get failbooru from viewing my profile.. I'm still getting Failbooru whenever I try to upload certain images from Pixiv and when I try to edit tags within pictures. The latter happens every now and then.

Edit: Actually now that I remember it, tag edit related failbooru happens to me about twice every two or three days. Sometimes refreshing the page fix the problem.

I've been getting variable speeds for awhile now, with intermittent failures on making a forum post. Most common was, as always, user profiles and the user list.

It seems that I'm getting a failbooru message when trying to make a new artist. Seems to be an error in the /artist/create? url or something.

EDIT: Wait, it seems that it's the redirect from /artist/show? to /artist/create? (due to an artist not having an artist page), that's causing the failbooru. Basically, clicking on the ? beside an artist tag without the artist having a proper artist page yet creates the error.

Okay, seriously? I'm getting failbooru on almost every page except the forums.

I most especially get it every time I'm searching with metatags. It's really starting to get frustrating.

Edit: Actually, I'm mostly getting it with Wiki and any time I search more than one tag. I also don't seem to get it with the actual /post/show/ either... Kind of odd.
