website running pretty slowly

Post by s_mcsleazy » Sun Jan 17, 2021 3:11 pm

im running it on chrome and it's been running really slow for the last few weeks. like from click to taking me to the page is a good 8 seconds. it's like we're on dialup.

I've noticed this intermittently over the past couple of weeks too.

I was going to agree, but it took so long to load this page that I wandered away to something else and forgot to come back.

I'm staying in a short term rental at the moment and thought it was bad wifi here for the past week or so, but now that you mention it, I haven't had issues loading other pages.

I am using ethernet right into the modem. Other sites are loading normally. It seems to go in spurts of lag then normal then lag.

Totally agree. I tried troubleshooting the router, my VPN, the browser, and even the OS (I have both a macbook and windows PC with me, as well as my Android phone) and can't identify any hardware or software issues on my end. It's intermittent but very noticeable and other sites aren't behaving the same way.

Yup and every once in a while it logs me out. Twice so far in the past week.

Something is/was amiss. Not sure what but the server was getting weird pegs almost on the hour, every hour. I just did a reboot and it picked up right away but we'll have to see if this trend persists.

It's probably everyone looking at RIORIO's Comanche repeatedly. Somebody buy the damn thing already! 8)

We'll get to the bottom of it.
