TASOS Posted September 25, 2017 Share Posted September 25, 2017 You need to fix this very slow loading ... on both pages. It's been too long , with this problem. Only the forum pages have acceptable loading times. Hope you can find a solution. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Casanova Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 Indeed, this slow loading is more noticiable on hwbot.org. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TASOS Posted September 30, 2017 Author Share Posted September 30, 2017 Things are getting worse ... People-members are not happy ... Staff-members are struggling ... Is there any hope ??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.Scott Posted September 30, 2017 Share Posted September 30, 2017 Lemme pose a question here. Suppose a team or teams......or individuals for that matter, were to enter their contest subs, and then DDOS the crap out of the site. Think that would bring the site to a crawl enough to impede others from subbing their results before the contests end ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crew Leeghoofd Posted September 30, 2017 Crew Share Posted September 30, 2017 well no joke it took our team almost 3 hours to complete the upping of the submissions, sometimes having to redo some scores 3-4 times before it was accepted.... Finally you end up with blank score screens and the user makes mistakes out of frustration... Thanks to the members and espeically the moderators to keep up with the erratic behavior of the site....

George_o/c Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 I sent several results from Friday night and a few were calculated! Please help! I have the same problem. About 15 results of mine haven't been calculated since yesterday. Today I deleted them and submitted them again, still not calculated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bones Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 Gee..... I'm wondering if it's a hardware problem related to the server(s) not being able to handle the load. If so get some sponsors to help out. They certainly reap the benefits of the site and could legitimately even call it an investment/advertising/whatever for a writeoff when they do it. By helping the bot they help themselves too. Just a thought here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Remarc Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 i have this trouble too,very long load pages,0 points and rank for new submissions and recalculating not work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richba5tard Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 The problem is rev6 of points does not scale. Each submission has impact on a global ranking, a hardware ranking, possible a custom competition ranking, team ranking, hardware masters, etc etc. One submission may cause 10000 updates of submissions in the same ranking, as the rev6 algorithm is based on your position within that ranking. Eg if there is a new #3, the points of #4 and lower (tens of thousands) need to be recalculated. Obviously this is especially bad during the last days of large competitions, where people sandbag and then submit top scores at roughly the same time. Rev7 solves this problem mostly by not taking your position into account, but based on % compared with the world record. Only if the WR changes, a total recalculation is required. There is a long ongoing discussion about this revision, and go-live date has been postponed multiple times, sadly. If you browse the dev version of hwbot (uat.hwbot.org), which runs on much lower end spec servers with the same database, you will notice the site is quite responsive. Rev7 will not solve all the problems, but it will run much smoother. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bolc Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 ~20 scores waiting validation since yesterday morning, and ~18 more for today Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richba5tard Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 hwbot main server has been moved to an instance 4x as powerful as the previous one to temporarely solve the sluggishness. We can't keep running on this db server for ever, as the cost is higher than the budget we have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Splave Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 its much better, time to increase the budget or roll out rev 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yosarianilives Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 Why don't you just ask Intel if they can throw some racks your way? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members GeorgeStorm Posted November 11, 2017 Members Share Posted November 11, 2017 its much better, time to increase the budget or roll out rev 7 +1 People have already offered the idea of having some kind of membership payment available or something. Be more open about the amounts needed etc and I'm sure something can be figured out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richba5tard Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 Monthly hosting cost for hwbot is approx 1100 - 1200USD, mainly due to the massive database. The upgrade to a significantly faster database costs an additional 365$ monthly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
