Timeouts searching just 'RWBY'?

Posted under Bugs & Features

So, yeah... I've got a standard account, and just by searching for 'rwby' and going to page 2, I'm getting the search timed out. Is there something wrong on the page that's causing a problem to slow it down so far this happens? I've never seen this before in my years on the site, and it's a bit unusual that searching one tag is enough to cause this.

And, well, just checked it again and it's working now. But I have seen this pop up a few times in the last... month or two while scrolling through pages.

Try searching for rwby limit:100, that works for me on an incognito search. Also ordering by score (rwby order:score) works.

Sometimes the site has periods of heavy load, so during those moments some searches might start to fail, especially when pages have to fetch posts from a very large timeframe.

The limit: metatag is free, so it won't count against your tag search limit.
