The Net-Gods must have been listening!  Immediately after I had I sent that moan, everything is now faster than I've seen it for ages.  Sod's Law at work again.

Simon old chap, :)  would you mind getting someone to give the server a hefty dose of syrup of figs, or castor oil?

I've got a good reliable broadband connection and an ISP that does no throttling.  Every other web-page I've tried has loaded at the usual fast speed, but the reading the forum tonight reminds me of the worst of the bad old dial-up days.    :crash:

This morning and this afternoon the site was fine, but this evening has been particularly slow again and it's not as if there are hundreds of users logged in.

Thanks.

Ditto here also, I'm running a high speed business connection, 25x5
- initial load of apparelyzed is fine
- scrolling up/down pages is fine
- trying to go to subforums and or replyiing is dog slow on entry
- for replys typing is fine
- for replys any menu or icon actions are dog slow
- on saving/exiting replays it is dog slow

I'm using chrome, neither firefox or IE will connect to apparelyzed at this time, they did earlier.

Hi,

I'll take a look, but so far everything is working ok at my end!

The servers for the site are in the U.S, which could explain why the speed drops later UK time, as more connections are made in the U.S as their day progresses.

Simon.
