Bruce Amacker Posted October 27, 2007 Share Posted October 27, 2007 Man, this website is running painfully slow today, but all my other websites are running fine. Anybody else having trouble? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keith Browning Posted October 27, 2007 Share Posted October 27, 2007 Bruce I have noticed some slowness here and there but at this very minute it's loading real quick for me. I attribute this to the unusually high traffic the site has been getting this month. 75% of the traffic is due to the Mechanical Aptitude test which is three quarters of a megabyte download every time someone takes it. This is heavy bandwidth use but things are still running. Besides, it's added exposure for the site and our supporters. /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/wink.gif Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Warman Posted October 27, 2007 Share Posted October 27, 2007 I've had several instances of slow downloads or refresh rates.... As far as I can see, it is the internet simply being the internet (and our computers being the unforgiving motherf@ckers they always have been). I'm 4 blocks away from my ADSL gateway.... and it can take a long time for that porn clip..... I mean "movie vignette" to load and play.... I'm what you might call "chronologically challenged".... I can remember when we used to complain that people were slow.... now everyone can blame it on a slow "connection".... (Shit, I can remember when I didn't know what TV was...). We don't suffer from a slow connection as we do from "modern anxieties".... pretty deep for a grade 8 drop out, huh? Sigmund Freud... move over - Grampy's here.....
