"Freeola Image Servers"

Hi,

I'm using Firefox 353.

I've noticed that I have random issues when refreshing a page from the freeola.com domain in that the image servers appear to stall and then 'crash' all over the place with no images loading.

This is, as I mentioned, random, and I can't predict when it's going to happen, but if I look at my status bar during a stall, it's at image(n).freeola.com (or net etc).

If I refresh sometime later, all is recovered.

Any ideas?

Neil

We've been looking into this for a while and can't find any reason for this problem. It does seem to be related to Firefox I think, or does it happen in IE for you as well?
We are trying to solve this one but at least we know it's not just our machines!

I've just tried in IE and it also happens :S

I was ok when Neilj99 first posted this.
But now all images appear broken (in IE7)
e.g. http://images4.freeola.co.uk/gameaday/chatlogo.jpg

Looks like someone is testing to me...

Yeah that was me tuning the server. Does it appear to better now?

Yep - Back to normal for me (But I didn't see the original problem).

NB. Eccles - Any comment on the Throughput through the floor thread?

I know you keep an eye on TBB so will appreciate lots of people are having problems.

For me since my post yesterday, my node (Faraday) has been performing slightly better. But some feedback would be good...

@Hmmm: Sorry I've not read that thread yet, I've been away for 2 weeks on paternity leave, will try and catch up soon.

Thanks!

Yeah I meant I hadn't read the latest posts in that thread.

@Eccles

Thanks for looking into the image server issue.

I'll let you know if it all goes wrong again.
