We've found that simple search is impacting the performance of the journal sites. We have disabled both simple and advanced search and redirecting all search requests to our favorite 503 "site maintenance" page. We're going to dig into the code and see why search queries are taking so long to return data.

We've gone to DefCon 5 at PLoS to resolve the performance issues. It's time to lock everybody into a conference room, order a bunch of pizza and fix every performance problem on the websites.
