Title: Is SR timing out constantly for you?
Post by: Limetless on April 23, 2013, 01:40 am
Ok so has anyone noticed that SR keeps timing out? Was doing it earlier and then left it for a few hours and it's still doing it.

I found it really slow last night, with lots of time outs, but I've found it pretty steady for the last few hours, with only the occasional time out.

It might not be anything to do with SR itself. I think the Tor network's level of traffic varies considerably over time, just like how torrents experience boosts and lulls, it's more volatile than surfing the web. Donate more to the Tor project and put up more relays I suppose. Really we ought to be paying a Tor tithe to pay our way and to boost the network's throughput. Get some enterprising members of hackbb to make an exit relay botnet or something, as well as paying a few server farms worth of relays. After all if more people are using the network, it is providing more space for customers and higher levels of anonymity, so really it goes straight back into our pockets.

Q: How come you're a vendor twice over in the user ID section next to your posts? It's a source of infinite confusion:

Yeah..   And its been doing my fkn head in..

Seems to be mainly SR that is super slow for me.
Forums seem to be going fine.

Trying to make an order last night took me nearly 45mins with all the time outs..
Found that changing Tor identity sometimes cranks it up a bit.

Indeed. It was my way of saying it's not your concern. :)

If you can't catch the fox then make his hunting a pain in the ass. If the law can't shut at down IM sure they could flood tor just to slow it down and annoy the hell out of everyone hehe. Devilish..
