I get this message atleast once a day. No matter if im at home or work. It usually goes away after you hit refresh once or twice… Anyone else get this message… Whats the deal?

there’s no big magic to it. For a basic trace run “tracert [www.son240sx.org](http://www.son240sx.org)” and post your trace route table results here so we can see where it drops en route. ![http://www.mediacollege.com/internet/images/traceroute.gif](http://www.mediacollege.com/internet/images/traceroute.gif) ---

You know I think this has to do with son240’s host, because out of all the sites I browse, son240 is very slow at times. Not all the time just sometimes it starts lagging and doesn’t load, times out and/or gives the internal server error. Definetely son240 host/server end. ---

For the last 3 days SON has been really slow for me, the front page opens and then when I start browsing sections, it wont load a page for the longest time or internal error on me. Somethings’ definitely changed, it was never like this before. ---

It’s not anybody’s individual internet, it’s son itself, because all other sites work just fine for me and are fast. Work, home, family’s home, friend’s home, all the same. PS - Weaves I like your white hatch it looks nice. ---

The issue has to do with our database being so large (250MB+) and I don’t think DreamHost is doing well enough to handle this. I’ll be contacting them regarding performance issues. ---

I’m guessing their servers suck, a 250MB database is not that large per say. It’s behaving a little better today, no slow downs or time outs or interval server errors in IE. ---

I contacted support. They’ve recommended some suggestions that I will be trying out shortly. Also a new update is planned in the coming days/weeks so I’ll do it then in one shot. So far last few days/hours it’s been pretty stable. ---
