Deprecated Darkstar fourms

I started a small private server about a month ago, and everything is working great except the speed of the Auction house. It seems to take 6-10 seconds to start showing items, some players say it times out constantly. I've recompiled and checked my settings, but have the same issue. Is this normal Auction house behavior?

I have the auction house stocked, everything at 20 items. I removed all 76+ gear and spells, but the database queries quickly so I don't think that is the issue.

My server is in a hosted enviroment on dedicated 50d/50u fiber. It's on Server 2008, Double Intel Xeon Quad Core Processors, 32Gb of Ram, and 15k Cheetah Drives.

Anyone have any tips on how I can increase the speed?

Thanks for any help in advance.

you can try some profiling to see what's taking long, but also compiling in release would help for sure if you're doing it in debug

I resolved this, I had my query cache too high in MySQL and was causing problems.
