The Energon Pub

Just wondering if anyone else is receiving the email notifications very slowly lately. It seems as though I receive a notification 2 or 3 hours after the posting occurs.

It seems to vary for me. It's never immediate but typically takes about ten minutes for an event to generate a notification.

It takes about an hour and a half for me to receive any kind of email notification.

I don't notice anything, but that's typically because I check before I go to work and then when I get home from work, so if there's a lag of hours, I won't know. But I'd imagine as the site gets more and more active users, it'll get slower and slower for any notifications to get sent out since it's got more to process.

Grimlock hit the nail on the head. More people subscribing to topics decreases the speed at which notifications are sent out.
