Karma/Upvote Freezing

I've been noticing that karma and upvote data has been freezing when checking from profile activity and checking the contexts of such posts.


Each of these were checked within minutes of each other today.

Karma has also frozen on profile pages as well. I have gained/lost karma within the last day and the counter hasn't moved. I'm not sure if this has been addressed yet, but I hope this can get fixed.

I can't be certain on why this is happening, but voting/updoots on KYM have always been riddled with problems, at one point being so bad James had to correct them for the site's performance. By far the most likely cause of this is just KYM being unable to accurately keep up with the rapid voting that goes on in the couple thousand active comment threads. You should notice this issue clear up a bit off peak user hours, so all I can say is to be a little more patient with the system.

I noticed this for like 2 days actually. I never reported it because I didn't think it was that big of a problem and just a weird thing going on my computer. Plus I also technically made a thread about it about a week ago. (It was more on the topic of the upvotes not being shown correctly on the actual pages themselves though)
