Extraordinarily long load times

Grandmaster_Skweeb · 11-05-2008, 08:49 AM

Just thought I'd bring this up but it may possibly be something on my end. As of two days ago everything on this forum has been loading up extremely slow. Tried in IE and Firefox on both computers I have access to and the results were the same.

In my constant lurking about I've noticed load times average around one to two minutes per link..sometimes upwards of six to seven (rarely, but it has happened).

Again, might be something funky on my end but hey nothin ventured nothin gained.

I've been getting the same thing, but also thought it was a problem on my end. As a matter of fact, yesterday I clicked a forum link, payed my credit card bill online, and came back to see the page still loading.

I've noticed this myself. Though I'm on a deployed ISP in Russia, so it could be something on my end. Not sure.

I've got it, too. Was wondering if it was on my end as well, but with so many cases, I'm not so sure.

I have it too. Feels like dial-up again...

Yeah, definitely something on the forum's side. Fifth actually already made a post about it in the tell-the-admin forum, which should alert Fuitad.

Moved this here so Serverman knows what's up.

Will close thread so he doesn't keep getting alerts.

Just a quick note to inform everyone that the RAM on the forums machine has been doubled last night. This should help a lot in all the speed issues you guys were having.

Thanks!
