Slow Website/Forum

Just so you all know, I've just submitted a complaint to our hosting provider about the slow response we're getting from the website. Hopefully, they'll be able to fix it and get things snappy for us again.

Wow. Sometimes it pays to be a squeaky wheel.

Geez, this is a pain. It goes from being lightning fast to dog slow to just plain not working and back again.

Still prodding them about it.

If it's any consolation, I've not noticed a slowdown.. of course on my 1Ghz PowerPC not much happens fast.

It's all in the timing, I guess. When it works right, it's very fast.

That's why the intermittent slowness is bugging the hell out of me, Scott! I'm trying to work on the mobile formats, and every time I get started, it goes flaky and started giving me 30-second page loads or timeout errors!

Welcome to my world. I couldn't get shit to load for a good portion of the day.

Let's hope they've fixed the problem.
