Thanks for the note.  I hardly ever do much of anything on Saturday
nights.  11:00 PM EST would be 8:00 PM PST, I'm usually doing EDB stuff
after 9:00 PM PST, so there shouldn't ever be an issue.

I'll keep more thorough notes of when this happens.

It may be a "west coast" thing.  I did a tracert and it's going through
San Mateo, CA, then Michigan and on to NY.  It's probably on one of the
hops across the country.

Sometimes, when I restart the page, it's suddenly fast.  Perhaps it's
picked a different route.

David:

I'm in California, but also on FiOS at home where most of my development
work is done.  Perhaps there is a connection there - either FiOS or somehow
a west coast issue.

For what it's worth, I was at a training session at a university about 60
miles from home yesterday and loaded the elevatesoft.com home page very
quickly.

Just downloading the latest ElevateDB I have spotted this:


I need the utilities, D2006 & D6 versions so I try and get all the downloads running. The website effectively freezes after I have the first two going and nothing happens (ie I cna't navigate round the website) until one has completed.

It could be your browser.  IE/Firefox by default limits number of concurrent
downloads to any singl site to 2 (and browsing counts as download as it
really just retrieves the files).

IE  - see more here : http://support.microsoft.com/kb/282402

Firefox steps
goto: about:config
check "network.http.max-persistent-connections-per-server" setting

Unless you are using Firefox 3, where the limit is 6 as I just
discovered downloading EDB Smile.

using ?

Same here - both Firefox 2.x and 3.x  work OK.

Couple of suggestions:
1. Does your firefox work for other sites?

2. Disable any Firefix add-ons you're running and try without them

3. Is your AntiVirus/Firewall scanning and protecting web connections (e.g.
using local proxy or such) - it might interfere. Sometimes these programs
auto-configure the IE settings but don't do anything for Firefix and other
browsers.

Hello Greg,

I am also experiencing slow page loads when accessing www.elevatesoft.com.
In my case, I found out that this is an issue with the Kaspersky Anti-Virus Software.
It checks png files and he needs 2 minutes to check replicationintro.png and
as long to check the other png files.

If I switch Kaspersky Anti-Virus off, there are no problems with the web site.

Best wishes,
Markus

I tend to use the online reference materials from www.elevatesoft.com quite
a bit lately.  I've noticed that the www.elevatesoft.com web site can be
slow to load (sometimes on the order of several minutes for a web page to
load).  As a side note, when I download a version update of ElevateDB, I get
the slow page loads, but the download of the product itself is quite fast.
This has been occurring for several months now and it seems to occur more at
night (Pacific Standard Time Zone here) but sometimes occurs during the day
as well.

I e-mailed Tim privately and he indicated that he is unable to directly test
this since he has local access to his web server and that it is always fast
for him.  He suggested asking here in the newsgroups to see if anyone else
is experiencing the slow page loads.  So ... is anyone else also
experiencing slow page loads when accessing www.elevatesoft.com?

Thanks.
