How would I go about troubleshooting a site that’s become slow (for no apparent reason) today? Resource use is very low: [Screenshot 2024-10-08 at 8.47.41 PM] This is a 16 GB Memory / 4 AMD vCPUs / 200 GB Disk / SFO3 - Ubuntu 24.04 (LTS) x64 droplet with 30% disk used. DigitalOcean Service stat…

Here is the happy conclusion to this saga… After running speedtest-cli and iperf3 network throughput tests which showed abysmally slow speeds between the droplet and the outside world, I asked DigitalOcean to investigate and they concluded after doing their own testing: We have discovered some is…

I don’t get errors in the console in safe mode , but it’s much slower. It takes about 10-15 seconds to load anything and images are chugging like they are coming over a 14.4 Kbps modem.

Welp, I’m afraid that was not it, or at least not the whole thing. Now I’m seeing broken images and this in the console: [Screenshot 2024-10-09 at 2.56.34 PM] [Screenshot 2024-10-09 at 3.04.33 PM] Still slow loading or not loading at all with the spinner going… [Screenshot 2024-10-09 at 2.48…

I wonder if this has anything to do with the issue: [image] What is rebaking and is it necessary when moving a server? So if you restore a backup, and do not rebake, then you will see broken images on your site. Rebaking is required in order to regnerate those optimised images. Discourse will ta…
