Site Slow To Load

Post by Bajan Pilot »

Maybe it is just me, but does anyone else notice this site is very slow to load, along with not displaying some pages entirely?

Yes. Very slow the past few days. Other sites have been quick.

I've been having the same issues for over a month, off and on. Sometimes it runs normal and I think they have it fixed, then the next time I check in it's super slow. I also get a message saying the server is not connected, etc. I've thought maybe it was safari so I tried explorer, same thing and it's not my internet because everything else works fine, it's getting to the point where I'm fairly annoyed and hope they get it fixed soon.

When I googled the site out of curiosity, Google had a note on the bottom saying that the site may have been hacked/compromised.

Pretty slow for the last few days, and then it was slow a month or so back, and then in last year for a while as well.

It seems to speed up occasionally if a page loads. So if I end up getting onto the index page, I'll load up every sub-forum I can in separate tabs, and then they'll either time out or will all load up.

Has anyone else had an issue with the forum logging them out between visits - but not every single visit? Might have something to do with the issues as well...

I tried to log on yesterday and just left the tab open while I surfed case it was taking so long to load. A while later it had loaded to the index and beside general comments it said "no new posts", or something like that. It's as if there was a cookie that recorded what I'd looked at and no comments had been added since. Is it a new feature that buggy or something?

I use Firefox, 50 mps download speed according to speedtest.net, brand new SSD, tonnes of RAM.

Every few visits I have to log in again, even though I have the "log me in automatically" box checked.

Made a change that hopefully resolves the slow down issues. Please let me know if you experience any new slow downs.

If the forums are loading slow please visit http://tools.pingdom.com/fpt/#!/eglJC5/ ... ca/forums2 and send me a screen shot.

It's not just the forums. Even http://avcanada.ca takes 60 seconds to load. According to http://tools.pingdom.com/fpt/#!/bHH27U/ ... vcanada.ca:

(all of the other files just had a very narrow yellow bar, indicating that they weren't holding things up).
