it seems like the forum is getting really really slow to load. it dont seem to have the snap it used to. (could be my end but everywhere else i go loads faster)
i notice in the who is online thing you have the damn "Baidu Spider" running amuck, and from my experience when them bastards would crawl my site the place slowed to a horrid crawl if not just quit working. banning Baidu got things back to normal

Yep, that's what I think.
yea.
Baidu also from what I seen will not follow robots.txt ether. just another bad bod imo.
I block any Chinese ip addies i see in the logs

There's no evidence that they're causing a problem. Again, they're simply not mutli-threaded, they don't maintain a session, so it appears that there's far more of them than their actually is. Server load averages are very low, bandwidth is relatively low.
Looks good on my end... :shrug:
OK. But right after Tony mentioned his problem, the site slowed down to a crawl then wouldn't load at all for a couple of minutes while other sites were fine.
Just relaying an observation.
That was me diagnosing a potential problem; which I didn't find.
Seems the same as it always has to me.

When the web slows down, I just read slower. It all works out.
