    In the last week or so, Boards loads very slowly - taking about five times as long to load as other sites (rough estimate). Is there a reason?

    Not ads - I don't use Boards ads, never had 'em work for me. Just ordinary forum pages.

    As Sherifu said, it's a server.

    It's named for the Irish word fógra, meaning advertisement.

    Ahh thank you very much. I'm afraid I was never a fan of irish in school and then there was all this talk of fogra as an 'entity' in relation to boards so I was a wee bit lost.

    Boards has really become so slow - it now takes 70 seconds for each page to open for me, which is really off putting... it didnt used to be anywhere near as slow when i first joined :(
