Default Forum slow again?
Is it me or is it taking longer than usual to down load threads? Know there was an issue last week.
Anyone else experiencing this now?

Bottom-left of screen indicates "waiting" -- reminds of old dial-up days......

That's it. Much too long to continue browsing. Hope this isn't the way it's going to be.

It is taking me 45 sec to a minute to load a page and all is well on other sites.
It is beyond frustrating.

Slower than it should be, that's for sure. Speeding through all other web pages, but...well, you know...seems like a really proficient web designer......

Good start, bad finish. Initial transition to new software went real smooth. Since then, it has been all downhill or is that uphill?.

Yesterday in afternoon, it was bad but by last evening and so far today, page loading makes dial-up look good!
