Is it better to have the AJAX features turned on or off for large trafficked forums? Which will help save the servers?

Seems AJAX would reduce load as it loads fewer full pages.

Google gmail uses it and I'm sure they get tons of traffic

I wouldn't use any ajax that autorefreshes on a timer, but the stuff built into vbulletin seems fine.

It actually reduces load, as you're not generating the entire page...just plugging some variables into outputted tags and making the user's browser update the page accordingly.

AJAX will not cause a big hit in server load unless you install something that nails the server every few seconds. I don't think any default AJAX features will cause you any trouble.

Are your users experiencing slow-down? (Especially on the thread pages?)

Do this: Log-in, go to a thread page, Press REFRESH

Does the browser say DONE but there is a delay between the header loading and the rest of the page? If so PM me.

shoot forgot to say, you must use IE when doing that speed test (the majority of your users will be using IE)...

You have to be logged in and press refresh on a thread page whilst using IE to see it properly - I did the test logged out and still saw the problem...
