Hello,

When trying to post a thread/post on our forums, it takes a long time (and sometimes times out). We sometimes receive an error establishing a database enquiry and our site crashes.

Our hosting company say it is due to the following:

1. Massive table bloat 2. Table-level locking during forum posts 3. Connection pool exhaustion
 

I don't fully understand this but wondered if there might be an answer to this as it means the forum has just become very slow (almost 5 minutes to open a post/thread).

Thank you

Damian
