Cheers,

Yeah I noticed that earlier today, but things seem to be fine now. (For me at least)

 

[Edward Campbell]

It's been mostly good here in Texas, Mike, using MS Vista and Chrome, but today, right now (1515 Hrs CST) it is painfully slow - a full 30 seconds or more to load a page or make a post.

 

[Edward Campbell]

In fact it took about 2.5 minutes and two tries (I got a "This web page is not available" error message) to post my last message.

Is the site getting hammered by interest in the court proceedings in Petawawa?  That was my first suspicion...

 

[PMedMoe]

Yep, just came up super slow and timed out the connection here.  Then fast, then slow, then faster....you get the picture.

 

[Mike Bobbitt]

It is painfully slow... not sure what the cause is at this point but I'm checking into it.

 

[Old Sweat]

It was really slow, in fact I gave up a few times, over the last hour or so, but it seems better now.

 

[Edward Campbell]

It's going in double quick time right now (15:50 CST).

Its been an absolute shocker down here this am, so slow, I've walked away and come back, and its till trying to turn a page. A bit better now, but still slow.

Regards,

Wes

It's up and down like a hooker's knickers on a pay night! It's slow then, five minutes later, quick again, then slow, then ... you get the picture.

 

[GAP]

It's reasonable now, but it took me 11 minutes to make a post about an hour ago....

It's up and down like a hooker's knickers on a pay night!

Gotta ask....is that because you were waiting? or watching everyone waiting.....

[Nfld Sapper]

zipping along nicely here on the rock with Vista/IE 8 beta 2

 

[George Wallace]

Still running at odd speeds for me.  Long pauses, and then sudden spurts. 

Must be pacing itself.    ;D

 

[Edward Campbell]

It was very slow yesterday afternoon (1800 Hrs CST); it takes about 20 secs to load a page this morning.

The rest of the Internet is fine.

 

[George Wallace]

Must be a sign that it is getting frigid out your way Mike........the site is freezing up.

 

[Edward Campbell]

At 1830 CST it's fast, again, after a day of frustratingly slow page loads.

Like George, I blame the weather up there ... It was 72oF here at about 1700.  ;D

Are you insinuating that the site speed speeds up the further south you are and the warmer the clime?  ;D
