Just deleted my cache 5 mins ago to fix the problem and its seems to be fine and flying again weird considering now it has to load more than before

Because I dont like to sit here and read all the useless dribble. So I read what I think might be of some use or fun and then mark the rest as read.

I'm on ADSL and it's usually fast, but every now and then its as if someone just unplugged the ethernet cable on the Toymods server, there is just no response. Usually comes good a few minutes later.

Yep. Same here. It's almost like when you edit your post and it lags. Something chronic.

I'm looking into it!

The size of the database is getting pretty big. I think it's got something to do with marking threads as read, as that table in the database is over 500MB now.

OK Cool1 hit the nail on the head with this one.

It seems that the fud_read table stores a record for every thread for every user that says that thread has been read. In other words, we have 68000+ topics in the forum, so each user that clicks "mark all messages read" will have 68000+ records in that table! Shocked 10000 users multiplied by 68000+ posts equals database meltdown!

I tested this myself by deleting all records for my user_id, and as expected, suddenly all my posts were unread. I then clicked the posts read link, and voila! - 68000+ extra records in the fud_read table for my user_id.

Apparently later versions of the forum fix this - looks like we're overdue for an upgrade...

He's saying that we're using a dodgy old version of FUD forum and any time a user chooses to mark all threads as read the database gets a big workout and slows down the site.

We will be moving to a new database in the near future to get around this problem.

clearing cache helps for a little while..

it is possible to "mark all as unread" ?
also is it possible to have an "unsubscribe all" button?
