Slower than a cake baking with the oven turned off today

Most of the time for me anyway.
Sometimes I get a page real quick but 9 times out of 10,I'm waiting a minute or 3

That makes reading boards a waste of time today which is a pity.

tSubh Dearg

That's funny cause I was just thinking how fast it was working for me today. Much quicker than usual.

Gordon

Sometimes it hangs for me but I think that's a Firefox issue. If I click on the actual page that is hanging it tends to kick it back into action. Mind you, I've had that issue for many moons.

mike65

No problem for me.

Mike.

DeVore

Havent noticed any problems. I'm using IE (various versions) and I use boards quite a bit

Karoma

Moving along OK here.. except the usual freezing on Edit/Delete (Firefox)

mike65

The speed has gone to hell. Guess whats to blame - again?


















flipping google.analytics.

Mike.

Tell you the truth,I had no sooner posted this, than it was speeding along fine again.

mike65

Commentators curse strikes again! The speeds picked up.

Sparky

has been running 100% for me today.

Taking longer than 10 seconds to come up here at various times yesterday and again this morning. 3MB DSL here with nothing else running. All other sites fine.

TerrorFirmer

Patchy for me regardless of whether I'm at home or at work.

Works fine 80% of time, other 20 it just hangs. That said, when it does work, it works grand.

I find it either works or doesn't - doesn't seem to be any actual slowing in loading pages once connected.

Nightwish

taking an age to open up each page today. Pictures and avatars aren't opening either.

Valentia

Taking between 30 secs and a minute (sometimes longer) to load a page. Adserver's fault sometimes but not all the time.

could this be routing?? Can you do a few tracerts to www.boards.ie from where you are a few times and see if theres a delay somewhere?

I know you don't want to hear this but I always thought that your lagging problem was local.

Ran tracert twice and got the same result:

It's intermittent for me, and has been over the last month or so. I have a new PC and don't have all the Firefox extensions installed. My biggest issue seems to be the actual loading of the pages. I can get upto a 20 second lag between load and refresh. Somebody on another thread mentioned the "old firfox problem", whatever that was. But I never had any with my old PC.

Sorry but um, given your username I'd appreciate it if you didnt talk like an admin, my muppet meter nearly exploded just now but on review of your posts you seem to be a genuinely helpful user

No problem. It was purely from a personal perspective that I wanted to know this information (i.e. to enhance boards performance on my machine).
