forums incredibly slow for anyone else, or just me?

slow for me on virgin media and pingtest says my connection is fine so must be ocuk or an internet router on the way.

Beansprout · 13 Sep 2011 at 10:09

All ok here (Be)

CaptainRAVE · 13 Sep 2011 at 10:42

Fine for me - but they do slow down in popular threads where lots of people are posting.

arc@css · 13 Sep 2011 at 12:16

Seems like back to normal now.

Completely fine here, good old University connection.

I spoke a little too soon. Still much better than the previous few days though.

Forum had been very slow over the last 3 days or so. Tried replying last night but it wouldn't post the message. Still slow today but not as bad. Other sites work as normal.

I've tested my connection

So it's not my connection. Something fishy is afoot....

LeJosh · 13 Sep 2011 at 21:34

My connection is fine, had it all sorted recently. So it must be OcUK.

Because it's being horrible as of late, will stop loading pages midway and sometimes just time out.

I'm on VM 50Mb and my pings tend to be 30-40ms.

arc@css · 13 Sep 2011 at 22:33

Other websites are fine, just this one that is sometimes taking an age.

Vorash · 13 Sep 2011 at 22:34

Every now and then pages here seem to get stuck loading for me. I need to refresh them a few times to get them working

Hades · 13 Sep 2011 at 22:37

Very slow for me. Other websites are fine.

Purgatory · 13 Sep 2011 at 23:02

Any news what is going on ? It still is doing it tonight too.. Other sites not having any problems.

Had it earlier here as well - BT Infinity

its actually a little bit better than it was for me last night, but that really is like saying rabies is better than botulism

*edit*
i'll take that back. its become worse than it was last night

i think the OcUK hamster needs the sack tbh, he's been underperforming so much recently

No admins looking into this? It's definitely affecting more than just the one ISP now, so it has to be server side.
