It's there for me!

Also looks like GOG fixed it.

You're either being cruel or joking - I guess joking?

Themken: Linux and not fine. Sluggish as a slug in mid-winter.
Themken write vm.swappiness=1 on your /etc/sysctl.conf file, Problem solved.

Also Themken

Try this:

sync
echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
dd if=/dev/zero of=/tmp/testfile count=1 bs=900M

sysctl -w vm.vfs_cache_pressure=100
find / > /dev/null
cp /tmp/testfile /tmp/testfile2
time find / > /dev/null

sysctl -w vm.vfs_cache_pressure=50
find / > /dev/null
cp /tmp/testfile2 /tmp/testfile3
time find / > /dev/null

rm -f /tmp/testfile /tmp/testfile2 /tmp/testfile3

To make the change permanent, put vm.vfs_cache_pressure=50 on your /etc/sysctl.conf file.

Experiment with this value. Values close to 100 provide no gain. Values close to zero can cause huge swap activity during big filesystem scans.

Yes, I was joking but honestly thought you had written something useful and several buttons went invisible.

The website is indeed unrecognisable in a very positive way today, hurray :-)

Also, I have set things like swappiness and caching in the OS and web browser already to suitable values for my system, taste and usage but others may benefit.

Yep I'm just Glad they fixed it with a simple S! that was what was tripping the 504

so when they changed it the buttons ACTUALLY went invisible?

Yes, still worked if I managed to hit the correct spots but not visible.


Very optimistically I clicked on the link that is supposed to show you new replies but that took me to the normal Atlas bear.
I think something broke again: the GOGBear page I got quite used to is now showing recent answers to my forum posts instead…

I trust GOG Wizards should be able to restore the expected GOGBear behaviour soon™.

Some problems only seem to appear for some people, or some groups(maybe based on browser usage and other factors)....so it is possible one's buttons could disappear for a bit....especially with THIS forum.
