      Hey All - I think that he needs the time reported.
      If you don't have time to do it right
                      ...when will you have time to do it over?

              Just to have my input as well whilst I'm here!

              I had slow connection issues today and @ 19.30 GMT with an error page claiming:

              "Connection Problems

              Sorry, SMF was unable to connect to the database. This may be caused by the server being busy. Please try again later."

              I've been getting this around 8 out of ten times when clicking on forum links.  :'(

              Ok, I think that information will suffice for now, thank you everyone who gave their feedback on issues they encountered. I'll see if anything further can be done. SMF 1.1.6 was also recently released so will be updating to that too soon and that may also help. Although from the looks of the patch notes looks as if it's mainly security related.

              Keeping everyone in the loop

              Web host is suggesting converting MySQL database tables to InnoDB, which from what I read in the below SMF thread has helped a lot of uses who have bigger forums. I'm not set in stone in doing this yet until I get a few more questions answered. But be prepared that if I'm satisfied that I'll be attempting to convert tables this weekend.
