I’m not sure how long it has been, but the forum is loading really slowly for me. Just over 5 seconds to receive the first byte, and an additional 2.5 seconds to finish loading. Total of 7.53 seconds for a page refresh. For a basic web request, that’s really bad.
I’m guessing this is firewall related, as I can’t perform a good multi-location performance test. KeyCDN’s errors from all sites, for example.
same here
loads for me in 1 - 2 sec.
I had the problem yesterday, too. But it seems back to normal now.
Same here (Germany)
Everything’s normal here, today as well as yesterday (can’t vouch for all of the day’s 24 hours in all the relevant time zones obviously so there may still have been a temporary problem that I just missed).
Yeah it’s feeling better now. I had an instance last night where it wouldn’t load at all, or at least not within 20ish seconds. I wonder if somebody tweaked something after I pointed it out.
I just had a 30 second load. So not fixed fixed
Yep. Clicking “view reply” in my email to get here took longer than it should have.
So nothing has been fixed or changed. Whatever is happening comes in waves. Maybe the forum is getting overloaded by AI bots?
They’re aware. It’s “AI indexing on and off”. Seems okay for me at the moment.
Yep, that was my second guess. AI ruins everything eventually. I’ve had to implement client verification on certain sections of my site to combat their nonsense.
My first come on the forum this morning was very long, more than 10 seconds to refresh the list, as long to open a topic and 20 seconds to make my first answer (on another topic). But it’s ok now (after 3 or 4 minutes), I’m writing this answer normally.
