Reasonably significant website bug

#1 Postby tachyon » Wed Dec 30, 2020 9:43 am

While offering up a quick explanation about how caching causes read posts to appear unread I noticed this

Which is literally thousands of requests running at about 30/second for an image related to the clock

This will be significantly slowing the website down as well as wasting a lot of bandwidth. Deleting the current clock widget and/or replacing it with one that is not quite so broken might be an idea.

Thanks - I'll escalate the issue to my trusty PHPBB guru.
