    Forums Split and Merge operations seem impossible to complete these days. Appears to just eventually time out.

    You arent the only one.  They are terrible here and this seems to have gotten worse of late. For example the last one I did ran for 189 seconds then timed out and this was on a page that was only 185 Kb.

    People tend to post in very very old threads in the Windows Genuine forums and the mod there has tried multiple times to split them to no avail.  So he ends up locking them instead.

    Please do not read this sentence. Please ignore the previous sentence.

    Same here. When I attempt a merge, I get a very long delay, and then I get a page that says:

    Connection Timed Out

    This seems to be working these days for me. Slow, but successful.

    Thx for checking Ed. I won't know if this is still an issue until I run across some more duplicate threads. I will post here again if this is still problematic.

    I think this one is fixed. Anyone disagree?

    I'd agree to slow but have not had failures in a while.

    I've had occasion to do a couple of splits in recent days, and didn't notice any issues.

    To Wanikiya and Dynami's point, it may be slow, but I almost always do splits and merges in separate tab (in the "background"), so I wouldn't notice any performance considerations.

    Given what a split and/or merge does in a forums base the size of TechNet, frankly I don't find it odd at all that it might take a minute or more.... just as long as the UI doesn't TIMEOUT waiting for the task to complete.

    +1 on the extra tabs after all that why they are there.  My usual setup for TN/MSDN is 3 open tabs.
