FYI took four tries (with timeouts after about a minute) to load the first page this morning around 9:30. At the same time ping response from the server was excellent.

Smooth for me since about 10:00 this morning.

slow loading this morning

 

YUP

The home page didn't open until the fourth try spaced over 4 to 5 minutes. I checked DNS resolution, it's OK. Ping response to the IP also OK. Must be a server issue.

Always.

Yes, me too, on my first access, but it is flying now.

Slow when first loading. ???

Not today. But my first access yesterday was slow.

Lag in the forum today.

OK, this morning the thread performance is again erratic. This has been going on intermittently the last couple of weeks. I've compared my access to other websites with the forum in real time, and it's only the forum that's waiting. I've also run continuous pings to the IP and there's no hesitation or drop out while I'm waiting on page refreshes.

In any forum session, some posts may respond immediately, while others take 45 to 60 seconds to load. Although they do load eventually.

Anyone else noticing this? I'm also wondering if there's DB maintenance going on at any particular time of day.

It’s systemic lagism. 

It has been slow to load/refresh for me this morning too. 

Slow in the am.

From my experience it is always slower in the mornings. Usually not horribly so, but there have been several days in the last couple of weeks again where it's been more frustrating.

Is access to this site only available via a web browser?  I know that it's been decided, apparently, that TT will never come back, so is getting here with a browser the only way?

Perhaps a crystal ball, a kaleidoscope, a view master, or an etch-a-sketch?

...or maybe a custom app that could be developed.

 

Response time terrible this morning around 9 AM. Eventually gave up on a number of page refreshes. Specifically in the Daily Humor thread, but that wasn't the only one.

Network server ping time just fine.

Same here !!

Sop here. This forum is typically the least responsive, slowest and downright aggravating to me. Could be my home support system but almost all others sites I visit work in real time. Oh well.

Forum has a little lag this morning.

I feel like it's slow for me most mornings....

It just needs more caffeine in the morning. Maybe Maks needs to change the forum from decaf to high test.

Backups and stuff are running and sometimes take a little longer running into early AM hours.

It actually almost times out in the morning trying to connect.  So unbearable I go elsewhere.

Always 

Did the site blip? It wasn’t resolving about 15 mins ago. Every other website was resolving so not an ISP issue.

Happens to me all the time.   Slow load times.
