Pistonheads forums too slow?

[DanH]

Am I the only one finding the forums really annoying these days? At lunch time I end up having to select links and then browse in another window whilst I wait the 10 secs or so it takes for the page to refresh.

Its even slow now

Also seems to be a load balancing issue as sometimes I click on a new thread and get the 'oops can't find this topic' error. In fact, just got this now when trying to edit this message. I guess its a replication problem, as often I post and can't see my new post until I hit f5 enough times and end up getting to what I guess is the right server.

Real shame as it puts me right off posting.

I've found lots of problems with it lately. Most of the time it's too slow and more often than not when I post it doesn't appear on the thread for ages.

I emailed Ted about it a while back and he said he'd had a few similar mails and it'd been fixed.

Time for another 'fixing' methinks.

Evening is normally ok, but sometimes at work I just have to give up on it.

I had almost given up on it tonight, couldnt get beyond the menus, impossible to access a topic. But all of a sudden its returned to normal.

must be taking its time getting to cambridge as it is really, really slow here! by the time this gets posted i'll have gone to bed!

Oh great, now its been moved no one else will read it and comment. Nice one

This isn't feedback to Ted, this is a comment to see if everyone else is finding it a problem.

I'm working hard on this - I'm painfully aware of the issues.

Ever tried surfing places away from the PH forums?

If it stays this bad, I might have to do some proper work!

Slow for me too: it's taken six separate attempts to get in here and post

We survived lunchtime... I think the worst of it has been resolved for the timebeing
