Network going wonky in Chrome

[Lisa B]

Hey..

My network is going all wonky in Chrome...it seems find in Explorer..

Any ideas why it would all of a sudden go all crazy?

Can one of you check my site in Chrome so I can see if it's just me?

in the navigation bar chrome, type      chrome :/ / cache      and see what you get      surprising

ok im a lil unsure of what people mean by behaving wonky so lets try to be a bit more specific as i too had noticed a bunch of odd behavior since the emergency meltdown ..but in firefox cause thats all i use and i did correct the 1 issue

so my specific issues were weird loading patters

the head wopuld load and pause just below the top ad...then the left side collumn losded till the 1st ad..and paused..then the next textbox started to load till the 1st ad..and paused

i did hours of troubleshooting then found that my ad codes that worked just fine before were causing trouble so  a simplified version that sacrificed browser compatability=made the page load all at once as usual instead of the annoying start stop loading

next ive noticed slow loads caused by comscore (part of the glam integration)

multiple instincas of beacon.js  being slow and

long wait times from the server before the 1st byte of html is loaded and slow loads from api.ning.com

ive noticed odd lil things that i think are a firefox bug like parts of my navigation vanish or break off and float untill u mouse over (where the real navigation is) (the last 2 versions of ff have had this issue )

but thats been going on longer then since tge meltdown

i didnt read every post but out iof the ones i read there was no precse explanations of what you saw happening so  lets try to compile a list of te "wonky" behaviors you see on each site

oh i have had ni joins today at akll..none (altho i could join so i dunno) but had gottwn a couple reports of not being able to join (no matter the device or pc) or sign in with you need to enable cookies errors when they had coolkies enabled

chat was not working on members list page nor on posting a diwcussion pages

umm what else

oh yes

all bot activity stopped around 9 am this morning it averaged 3k an hour up till 9 am then suddenly no bot activity r=the entire rest of the day?

thats ...not normal

theres muotiple weirdnesses going on if we can  try to gocument them all ..in detail it will help track it down

[Skye]

Well I do not think I could get more specific than screen shots with an explanation of them on this thread, maybe you did not read all the comments.

nio i said i didnt only 1st couple pages wich were all vague

[Perrie Halpern]

OK for me it's long loading times and loosing all page formatting. Do a hard boot get back the formatting, but the loading time is still very long. 

Chat room locks up for members. They post, but it doesn't take. 

Noticed the same thing with the google bots. 

[soaringeagle]

the fact that theres been no bot activity since 9 akm is a serius issue  but also should help to tracgk down the issue thnx

hmmm ok..severe server  malfunctu[ion

lost pages after they restored it

then wonky behavior and finaly end of all bot activity?

id take a look 1st for some hacker injected malware ..its a long shot but the symptoms make me think its worth looking for

could be serever side cacheing issues..but no theres ben cookie issues as well..

maybe its just time for a new seerver?

the slow load times seem to be glam code to me ive been tracking that fir days its intermittent too

the chat wont open on certain pages for me

i wonder if theres new meta tags for compatability issues like there used to be in the forums section im gonna do more code hunting  starting with why chat wont open in certain pages but wil in others

grr nevermind that issue was consistent b4 now its not and chat works fine on members list

how do you track down a phantom? its like the issues jump around put on costumes and take random breaks just to mess with your mind and make you think u imagined them

We are also experiencing a "wonky" experience over the last weeks.

Personally in Chrome (latest version without any add-ons):

• Very often CSS not downloading (also experienced here on Ning-Creators and Wikipedia pages by the way). 
• Very often "Options"-button doesn't show up
• Very often other buttons like "Publish" and "Accept new member" do not work
• users failing to sign-up & login probably also due to non-functioning buttons
• Google Adsense and DFP-ads not loading properly or loading twice

Remedy so far: reload the page with F5 sometimes repeat F5 a second(!) time

My feeling is that this is not a NING-only problem, nor a cache-problem, although I do feel that NING could (temporarily) optimize code to help minimize the impact of this in various browsers. For instance perhaps disable some of the requests to 3rd-party servers such as Glam, scoreresearch, ...?

I hope things will improve soon. Many thanks to all who are looking into this issue!

PS: Menu-buttons often do not appear above an editable text-field

[soaringeagle]

not sure if this is only temporary or  intermittent but my site seems fast and bug free at the momment anyone see any improvements today?

[Atheist Universe]

Nope.
Everything Ning is incredibly slow today.
My network, here, other Ning sites.

[soaringeagle]

well its still very slow for the 1st byte to get sent  but after that its much faster then its been no 60+ second loads or anything

so its an improvement..on my site at least

An interesting hiccup?

Just now while browsing Ning Creators, a strange font-family effect in the right column:

...and I've only seen it on that page so far. This discussion here looks normal.
