Clicking on links and waiting a long time takes a long time. At what time of day is the SDMB least used?
I’m shocked this hasn’t been asked before. A search turned up no threads in the last month with the word “busy” in their title that were any use to me.
'Cause NZ is 12 hours ahead of GMT (usually!) I’ll take a stab and say between 7 am to 1 pm GMT, with a half-hour downtime for backup and maintenance during that time.
Ice Wolf is right 6 or 7am 'till 1 or 2pm is the fastest time (and the downtime is between 9:30-10:00am give or take a few minutes). After 9:00pm is normally quite fast.
Weekends and US public holidays are pretty good too.
I get to work at 8:30am (GMT) and have an hour of pleasure-filled lightning-fast posting before the hamsters get their smoke break and the b*stard who runs the office arrives…
By lunchtime when I post again, it is slower and by 4pm it is like treacle…
