The Site is slow

sometimes very slow

Is it just me or has the site slowed to a crawl? Thing is it's on and off.

Just wanted to see if anyone else has noticed.

It was very slow yesterday evening for me but seems to be responding well this morning.
Sometimes the server just needs a kick.

Takes way too long to log in and every gallery I click on takes at least 3 or 4 tries before page turns. This has been for a month. The past week is worse.

It has been slower lately. Usually I'll try the regular site and the test site and more often than not the test site works a bit faster.

Running pretty good here....maybe that's cos Oz is down the hill from the servers.

Thought it was just me, memory-leaks or whatnot. Thanks for posting. Now I can quit rooting about in the registry to try and find the hairballs. Test site seems faster.

There's still coding updates/revisions/fixes going on.....seems every other day there's a mention of a new build kicking online.....

My personal theory is the crew at Stardock are all in holiday-mode...and have skived off down t'pub and simply forgot to invite me....mongrels....

Oh trust me Jafo, we didn't forget. 

In regards to the site speed.  For me most part is seems very random.  1 minute things will be slow and then next everything is fine again.  I did make a couple of adjustments yesterday that may help so I will be curious to know if the site is feeling more normal.  If you are experincing slowness please post the URL to the page(s) that are affected.

Yeah for me too..waited ages and ages for it..been like this since before Xmas.

By the way also slow in another way is Rainlander Skins...new version 2.0.2 is out to download and no longer supports "ini" so no skins can be used.Are skinners going to change the tag now or what..this is a drag. Info is in the HELP section of Rainlander but beyond my feeble tekkie IQ..!!!

Smoking fast at the moment, even the forums... and its the weekend!

Fast 'now'.....slow around 8 hours ago.

Certainly no rhyme or reason...

Fast now cos I'm using the test site. I hadn't noticed a big difference in old site. Was still hard to maneuver .
