yeah its happening to me too

This page can give you all the answers you need.

…I still would like to know how many pages are there.

And if you really feel like skipping a bunch of pages, you can always try this:

Yes, it’s busywork, but it gets the job done.

I want the old back ! ;(

Ha, questionable filters. That’s funny

^ Huh, good to know. Surprising that something so apparently inconsequential could cause such performance issues.

Like Clover says in our most recent newspost, the pagination system is the major cause of performance issues with the site. Basically, the thing is that mongodb cannot do counts efficiently - and the pagination system we were using requires the system to check the number of images in a given collection to work out how many page numbers to show and where the “last page” button should be pointing. Every time someone looked at any gallery page on the site, the system went and one-by-one counted basically every image in the database the met the filtering/search restrictions for that user to work out where the last page would be.
 
When we disabled that system, our average response times for web requests fell from almost two seconds to less than half a second, as can be seen in the following graph:
 

 
This isn’t a permanent thing and we recognise it’s not the epitome of usability at the moment. We either need to come up with a more efficient way of doing what it used to do, or find a database system that has efficient counting using indexes.

Long story short: Clover is cutting all the paginators and “Last” page buttons to improve performances.

Not a bug. I think it has to do with this post

It’s a temp fix to make the site run smoother. Something about the software handling numbering pages in a bad way.

I didn’t think much of it. I figured they had a lot of sh*t to deal with.

I would like the option to skip one or two pages ahead, especially with comments.

I just go next, so didn’t bother me much

Somewhat annoying

I just assumed they were experimenting with a new layout. Is it a bug?

I just noticed this too. What’s going on?
