Anyone else experiencing a "significant" lag while navigating SP ?

Over the last couple/few days, I sure have, especially @ login where it is currently taking roughly 30 seconds rather than the normal two seconds. Moving from topic to topic within the forums, from index to inbox and when sending PMs, Sql errors... general site navi has been rather slow by my experience. I checked everything on my end which seems to be kosher.

Anyone else ?

No lags seen on my end.

It is the whole day that I have some big problems to connect with SummitPost.
Continues to be displayed the message: SQL Error. mysql4 contact the administrator.
When I connect, the speed is maddening, it seems to me to be back in the days of 54K modems.
It has happened to you too?
Have a good day.

This thread belongs in the Site Feedback forum. I am getting this error intermittantly too.

I am getting it too:

General Error
SQL ERROR [ mysql4 ]

Too many connections [1040]

An sql error occurred while fetching this page. Please contact an administrator if this problem persists.

Speed is very, very slow.

I've gotten three SQL errors today, and the site has been slow. Others have noted it, too, in another thread. If this continues for a few more hours, I'll let Matt know.

too many connections?
Great, we are a world of people.
Pity that the site is so slow.
It is impossible to chat and is also very complicated to open photos, post comments and vote!
It had never happened to me before.

Lysistrata

Topics merged. Thanks, all.

Ah ah
Lysistrata.

The strike of pleasure, not a bad comparison.

Lysistrata, the Athenian woman, convenes numerous women of Athens and other cities, including the Spartan Lampito to discuss an important issue. Because of the Peloponnesian War, in fact, men of the Greek cities are perpetually engaged in the army and no longer have time to spend with their families. Lysistrata proposes then to other women to have a sex strike: until men will sign the peace, they will refuse to have sex with them. After a moment of shock and denial, the women say they support the plan and make an oath. (from Wikipedia)

Having the same error here

Things seem much better now, at least on my end. My guess would be that a background script had been running, perhaps anti-spam. We've had the same issues with BG scripts before.

Thanks again to all.

I had a lot of problems Tuesday night. I was trying to post a new route and would get hung up and I had to make changes sometimes 2 or 3 times and resubmit because it wouldn't go through. Seems better now though...
