[Theater]

Have any of you recently noticed your forum running slow, and eventually loading up blank white pages? Furthermore it seems like yesterday in FireFox it was asking if I would like to download the file I was trying to access. Like if I clicked on New Posts for example it would sort of hang there and eventually ask if I'd like to download search.php.

Should I be more concerned? Right now with the track record my board has been over the past months I am not surprised to see it start timing out again. The latest theory is that since my attachments are in filesystem format on a weaker performing server along with vBulletin's files that it's causing it to overload.

The database runs on a separate quad core server and purrs like a champ, so if there was a way to remotely host those 186,032 attachment files (actually sounds like a bad idea lol) on the better server maybe it would fix the issue.

Man, still kicking myself for not biting on a recent server special that I saw with a new i7 Quad Core Processor, 12GB RAM, 500GB HD, and 6000GB for $200/mo quarterly pricing... heh.
