Slowwww

[WIcruizer]

Your sire has really slowed down, pages take forever to load! Seriously, it's almost like dial-up speeds. I'm not sure if you host the site internally or not, but it really doesn't cost much to improve performance. I would guess even the users would be willing to donate to improve the site's performance. I don't want to sound like I'm just sniping, I just wanted to make sure you were aware.

I am not experiencing any slowdown. Even over Cellular, I have great response times.

To help understand your issue, please give me some information:

• General location
• ISP
• Connection speed
• browser
• Operating System

Thanks!

It's not my browser or connection. Every other website I access via Chrome or IE loads very quickly. This site has always been very slow, I have accessed it while at WDW, other various places. I hear this from others who use the site as well...

I use both Chrome and IE and I've had no issues with this site being slow. Especially since the switch to the new server (is that the right term?).

I completely agree with the OP (sorry PrincessShmoo!) pages are loading VERY slowly, what I type is lagging behind by several seconds and the threads are constantly shifting as the ads load at the top of the page. It's almost unusable!

Glad to hear it's not just me. Im constantly getting "A problem occurred with this web page and is being reloaded".

Lots of laggyness. It comes and goes.

I access the DIS using various machines throughout the day, and haven't experienced any slowdowns in months. Like WebmasterMike said earlier, we really do need more info from you about how you're connecting to try to pinpoint what could be happening...

I can't recreate your problem here, so we need to understand what is happening there.

I can give you my info as the same is happening for me. Every time I move from page to page within the boards it hangs for a good 20-30 seconds. It affects my entire browser while it does this. It appears, for me, to be a firefox issue. My isp is a local company in Illinois, it is a 3mbps connection (don't judge, I'm rural), I'm running Firefox 40.0.3 (disabling or enabling ad block plus has zero effect) on Windows 10. When I use Microsoft Edge, there are zero lag issues.
