Tonight (8pm-ish?) I will be swithing the website over to a new database server. Hopefully this will alleviate the slowness and occasional "Critical Database Errors" we've seen lately. The site will be inaccessible during the switch, but hopefully it won't be for more than a few minutes.

Ok, looks like we're up on the new database. Sorry that took so long, I ran into a few hitches that had to be straightened out. And it looks like the unread history is gone.
If you see anything out of the ordinary, particularly missing items, please let me or Tom know.
Thanks for the patience.

It's pretty safe to say that if we take all of man kinds accumulated knowledge, we still don't know everything. So, I hope you understand why I don't believe you know everything. But then again, maybe you do.

We will need to rebuild the search tables. It may take a while until the search feature is fully functional.

The search functions are all up and running here in Ballard, so you geeky superstar admins can put away your keyboards for the night and come on over to Dogpatch's art opening.

BTW, 8:15PM and I just got a critical database error. It came back pretty quick and I didn't lose my post. Polarbear and I were posting on this thread at similar times.

Been getting the critical error. Also it is slower for me more than it was. Especially posting.
Is this something that happens when more than 1 person is trying to do something?

It should be faster now. I optimized the search tables to make them smaller by not indexing common words. The delay when you post is due to the software updating the search tables with the contents of your post. The longer your post, the longer it will take. Similarly, the larger and less efficient the search tables, the longer it will take.
People can help minimize the strain on the search tables by not quoting up the wazzu. There is no need to quote an entire post if you are responding to the post directly above. When you quote, you can also help minimize the strain on the search tables by only quoting the portion you are replying to. Similarly, please don't quote or cut and paste long articles that can be linked to on the net.
