Slow loading on site

[watts555]

Hey, I am having long load times when trying to access this site. I was wondering if this was an issue on my side or on the sites side. If it is on my side, i deleted cache and everything i could think of, do you have any ideas on how to possibly fix this?

It's seemed a little slow here and there for me too.

I frequently find it slow loading (when first arriving, whenever moving from page to page, when I click submit)...I thought if was just me, and while annoying I love the site so I figured I was practicing being patient!

I've noticed it's been a bit hit and miss lately too. Sometimes (like now) it's fine and then sometimes it seems to take forever. Let's see how it is at the beginning of September. If there's still a problem then I'll see if I can find out our bandwidth usage from Octavian (since the relocation of the server at the beginning of the year, I've no longer had access to the site stats).

In the mean time, please post in here any details of when it is and isn't slow for you - maybe we can identify a pattern / peak times.

Always slow for me. Save for now, in a new place on a different wireless!! However...for the last 3 weeks it has been quite slow loading for me on all pages. Today for the first time it seems a bit quicker. I thought it might be weak wireless at my new home, and some of it may very well be that.

Painfully slow for me this week, yesterday the site was basically unloadable (2 successful connections over 5 hours, and only got the Home Page...and then forever trying to connect to a link). Other sites (hockeydb, hotmail, ebay, tsn, sportsnet, etc) worked fine.

I'm now on a work (schooll) computer and no problems!


EDIT - It's now Sunday night, and after a weekend of difficulties even accessing the site I am now able to access/post (really, really slow though). I am NOT trying to "complain" but rather posting as FYI

Hmm the site has been very slow and inaccessible for maybe the past hour.

I've had to borrow my wife's I-Pad for awhile now whenever I wanted to view/post on TBL, but all is working well from my laptop this weekend! I don't know why the improvement (nothing I've knowingly done/undone)...

It is being slow for me all the time. For like 2 months.

Once again seems to be really slow for me. around 30 seconds to load a page, used to be and should be a second or 2. Everything else seems to load normal for me except TBL so I'm wondering if it's just me or anyone else experiencing this?

No problems in my end. Smooth and fast.

[batdad]

Actually faster for me this morning than normal. Sorry Cee Bee.

Last summer/fall I had slow loading pretty much ALWAYS...not so bad for me in recent months...
