Over the past day or two I have noticed loading speed of the site has significantly decreased. It's painfully slow to switch to another page, and trying to retrieve alerts (hovering over the "Inbox" or "Alerts" buttons) is practically useless.
Same here- very slow in all respects and some times completely hanging. In that case the only solution is to log off, close Firefox and start all over again. This morning at 7am UK ETO would not load and I had to have about five attempts to get in then it was very slow. 10 minutes later ETO was back to normal speed. But throughout the day it would slow right down again from time to time.
actually , over the past month or 2 I have seen page get requests timeout, it is infrequent but once or twice a day when i click a link it will just sit there and not load anything, so for a fix i press stop, then click the link again and it pops up instantly as is more usual.... happens on both my networks....that have no other problems...
yes slow at times, avatar images are extent usually slow to load from my view point. And initial refresh hangs until apply stop page then retry.
:Edit:
As for this end, I use a phone through Wifi at distance from the connections, I all ways pass it off as that being the potential issue for any site loading, thus as for no append to notice of any problems via the Forum itself (here) not mentioned prior as to my connection method used.
