What software do you use for banner managment on your sites?

Maybe this will work faster if I store the banners in a folder in the domain instead of in mysql?

Yes it should work faster but that's not the crux of the problem. The problem appears to be in the shared SQL connections. Put it this way, if your site takes 16seconds to load with the banners stored in the database or 15 seconds to load with the banners hosted on the domain, it doesn't really matter. It's the other 14 seconds we need to be concerned with.

I have a support ticket in about this, we'll see what they say.

I was just in touch with Webair yesterday. They said their SQL servers were "experiencing DNS problems". They moved me to an unaffected cluster and things improved greatly right away. Lets hope it lasts.
