When I search the Louisiana sub-forum for a single phrase I get a 504 Bad Gateway error.

The 504 Gateway Timeout Error indicates that
the server didn't receive a timely response from an upstream server it needed to access in order to complete a request. This can happen because the other server is not functioning properly,
overloaded, or down.
the server being highly loaded is the cause of a 504 response timeout error 9 times out of 10.
