Site speed...?
« on: September 12, 2007, 21:46:23 »
I have a feeling it may be slow right now... but I can't test because I'm on the "inside". Anyone noticing any speed problems tonight?

Somewhat slow from Ottawa... but my DSL connection has been flakey of late, so I can't rule that out as a cause.

Mine was very slow to upload from 1800-2130 last night. It seems to be working like a charm though this morning (yeah it's after midnight here on the best coast ...  ;)).

Just a quick survey, Is it just me, or is the site really slow in the last hour or so?

I was first online this afternoon about 1530ish and it was slow then, and is still quite slow now.

Was slow late morning/early afternoon, normal about an hour ago, and now seems to have slowed down again.

Site seems a bit sluggish today.  Anyone else find it so?

I've been on and off the site a lot after 14:00 hrs EST and I didn't seem to notice a difference.

The only time this site slows down for me is when the site is about to go down.

For the last 5 minutes the site went really slow and now its rebounded to the fastest I've ever seen it on this connection, almost like a rubber band effect. Why would the site slow down like that at this time of day? I closed the browser window to see if it was my connection and only this site was slow.

Same for me over the last 1/2 hour or so.  Really slow and you think it's going to time out, then super fast.
