I don't know about you guys, but when the site is slow for me, it ALWAYS helps to suck up more bandwidth with a thread asking why!

:lol: Funny stuff there.

I haven't noticed any speed issues either at the office or at home. But it happens sometimes, especially during heavy traffic periods. You know what happens when the Interstate clogs up. ;-)

A few years back a skydiver jumped out of an airplane and his parachute got foulded in the lines. This slowed his fall to around 100mph. It also made him start a spin, with the fouled chute as the center.

He landed in a corn field, hitting the corn sideways and still in a spin, so he described a circle through the corn. This absorbed the energy of the impact and he waked away without a scratch.

I've noticed the same thing. That's one of the ad servers. Even with an adblocker, the page still hangs while loading connecting to their service.

Same thing for me. Site has been slow for quite a while for me as well. Pages take forever to load...or just time out. This is the only site I'm experiencing any issues with.

Txyaloo, I'm noticing the same thing as well. I'm running FF with ad-block plus.

I primarily run Firefox, but I gave Chrome a try for the hell of it to see if the issue was Firefox related. So far, both browsers are performing the same for this particular site.
