I’m running on WPEngine and using Cloudflare for a CDN. But I’m seeing really slow loads when posting either a new forum topic or a reply to an existing topic.

The site: http://bigblueball.com/discuss/

Any suggestions?

Oh yes, the site in question: http://bigblueball.com/discuss/

It is kind of a performance issue with some ‘bigger’ forums, we have a pretty awesome fix for this coming up in bbPress 2.6 once a couple of kinks are ironed out.

Details are here if you want to all out technical but I wouldn’t try running this patch just yet, soon, just not yet. 😉

Thanks for the heads up. I look forward to the up[date.

what exclusion rules would I add to cloudflare and have wp-engine add to their excluded list, nothing is being shown as updated when a new post is made, I need to clear cloudflare, wp-engine and browser cache to see new post
